The unexpected snow days of March continue ❄️ The unexpected snow days of March continue ❄️ After a milky sunrise, I look up from my bed, curled up reading, to see fat snowflakes falling from the sky. They come and go all day, a dance between snow, sleet and rain. Settling, a world temporarily transformed and then suddenly meeting away as fast as it came 💙 . . . . #lakedistrict #lakedistrictuk #lakedistrictnationalpark #lakedistrictcumbria #lakedistrictphotography #thelakedistrict #igerslakedistrict #lakedistrictlife #lakedistrictnpa #lakedistrictadventures #lakedistrictviews #lakedistrictlandscapes #lakedistrictengland #lakedistrictphotos #cumbria #cumbrialife #fromlakelandwithlove #thelakelanders #visitcumbria #igerscumbria #lakesography #explorelakedistrict #onelakedistrict #snowymarch #springsnow

Short and sweet February highlights…. A perfect Short and sweet February highlights…. A perfect Yorkshire rhubarb tart at @mathildesgrasmere, moody adventures to Loughrigg Tarn & Skelwith Force, Valentines hot chocolate walks & Nutella dodgers, post hike Camembert for tea, sheep in the garden & two tarns and a Wainwight hike. Bring on the spring 🌱
I was putting off my February dip, holding out for I was putting off my February dip, holding out for a ‘warmer’ day which never really came. Today was my last opportunity. Walking from Ambleside to Rydal, my kit packed in my backpack, I noticed the first signs of spring. The green shots of daffodils, a few early openers in The Quiet Garden outside Rydal Hall, purple crocuses dotting the lawn and snowdrops under the giant oak tree. Signs of spring but with a nip of winter remaining in the cold wind. Down on the shoreline of Rydal, it was quiet and still. A few walkers in the distance wrapped up in bobble hats and down jackets. I shivered as I peeled off my layers, wading in until the burn under foot I could take no more and I lowered myself quickly into the water. I counted to 20 fast, focussing on the mountains to steady my breath before striding out and back into the comfort of my warm clothes. In my haste though, I forgot to pack a bra and knickers to get changed into, so it made for a freeing walk home 😆 . . . . . #rydalwater #lakedistrictadventures #shexores #lakedistrictuk #12monthsofdips2023 #wilddipping #wilddips #livinginthelakes #thewildnesstonic
Two tarns and a Wainwright - the best way to start Two tarns and a Wainwright - the best way to start the week! 🚌Hopped on the bus to Langdale where I hiked up to Stickletarn with the imposing Pavey Ark in the background. ⛰️Left those heading to the Langdale Pikes behind and headed right towards the undulations of to summit my 79th Wainwright, Blea Rigg. 🧭I love how certain points in the Lakes you can stand and see how the valleys connect together - I could see across to Windermere, the Coniston Fells, Langdale Pikes and down towards the central fells 🥾I lost the path heading off Blea Rigg, before relocating the steep grassy trail that descends to Easedale Tarn above Grasmere - the first time I’ve had the place to myself! A good old Monday valley hop topped off with finding real maple syrup reduced to 98p in Grasmere Co-op - absolute winner 😆 . . . #lakedistrict #lakedistrictuk #lakedistrictnationalpark #lakedistrictcumbria #lakedistrictphotography #thelakedistrict #igerslakedistrict #lakedistrictlife #lakedistrictnpa #lakedistrictadventures #lakedistrictviews #lakedistrictlandscapes #lakedistrictengland #lakedistrictphotos #cumbria #cumbrialife #fromlakelandwithlove #thelakelanders #visitcumbria #igerscumbria #lakesography #explorelakedistrict #onelakedistrict #lovethelakes #lakescollective #lakedistrictwalks #wainwrightbagging #wainwrights #langdale
A long weekend is enough to fall in love with the A long weekend is enough to fall in love with the Lake District. Even in the pouring rain or under the ever-present grey skies, a journey, a walk, a meal – the Lake District is likely to leave its mark on you. Most weekend and day guides to the area will usually direct your first visit towards the southern area of the National Park around the famous Windermere and Bowness area. But having lived in various parts of the Lake District over the last four years, I always feel the North Lake District around Keswick has a much more dramatic, wilder feel and provides a wider range of options for a long weekend. You can check out my guide to a long weekend in the Lake District via the link in my bio. My guide includes…. 🥾 A range of my favourite walks near Keswick and Buttermere ☔️ Rainy day options in case the famous Cumbrian rain sets in 🍽️ Where to find the best breakfasts in Keswick 🚗 A full-day road trip around the North Lakes (including how to do the same trip by bus)! 📍Save this post for your next Lake District adventure! . . . . . #lakedistrict #lakedistrictuk #lakedistrictnationalpark #lakedistrictcumbria #lakedistrictphotography #thelakedistrict #igerslakedistrict #lakedistrictlife #lakedistrictnpa #lakedistrictadventures #lakedistrictviews #lakedistrictlandscapes #lakedistrictengland #lakedistrictphotos #cumbria #cumbrialife #fromlakelandwithlove #thelakelanders #visitcumbria #igerscumbria #lakesography #explorelakedistrict #onelakedistrict #lovethelakes #lakescollective #nationalparksuk
