Lake District Sports
The Lake District in Cumbria is often described as being like
the country's best adventure playground, and an ideal place for Sports. From the spectacular mountains and passes to the lakes that shine
like jewels in the landscape, Lakeland in Cumbria has something for everyone. From it's rise as a tourist mecca, the Lake District has
inevitably attracted adventurous types who want to pit their wits and skills against the elements and landscape. When you get here, theres's
always something to do, and here we try to gather together the Lake District Sports.
The range of sports that take place in Cumbria is staggering, from the longer established
traditional Lakeland ones like Rock Climbing and Walking, to the newer crazes like Wake Boarding and Microlighting. You can do it all here,
under the watchful eye of skilled instructors, who will guide beginners with just as much vigour as the more accomplished
protagonist.
This Lake District Sports site is divided into 3 sections for the Sports -

As well as the Sports on offer, the Lake District is an ideal place to plan a vacation. The vast array of Lakeland
cottages and Cumbrian hotel accommodation available should make it easy for you to find a base while you investigate the sports on
offer here. We have a small selection of Lake District Hotels and Cottages for your perusal. They range from small cottages
to multi bed hotels, either out in the countryside or in the larger towns like Keswick, Ambleside and Bowness-on-Windermere. Hopefully you'll
