Outdoor Activities
In The Lake District and Eden Valley
The classic activity in The Lake District is walking, but there are so many other things you can do, whether you are experienced in the outdoors or want to try it for the first time.
Eden Outdoor Adventures
Offers a wide range of activites - snowwalking, ghyll scrambling, canoeing, Blue Badge guided walks and more - and Ian and Melanie are happy to tailor the activities to your level and ability. Combinations are also possible, i.e. canoe across Ullswater, go for a Blue Badge guided walk and then end up Ghyll Scrambling. Or have a BBQ on a beach, and then canoe back in the moonlight... very atmospheric and romantic!
Rookin House
There is a lot to do here. They organise horse riding in the beautiful landscape or a range of activities like reverse steering, archery, and quad bike treks.
Keswick Climbing Wall
The name says it all. A great place to try indoor climbing, either as a first timer or just because it rains.
CycleWise
Get instructions in mountain biking and try the trails in Whinlatter, or if you already are experienced just rent a bike and try it all.
Glenridding Sailing Centre
All things sailing - double and single kayaks, Canadian Canoes, sailing dinghies and the lovely Traditional Boats. Wetsuits are available for hire, and full sailing courses are on offer.
