Here are some useful ideas about exciting activities for all the family, based in the unique natural environment only found in Lake District & Cumbria. Activities can be as sedate or as high octane as you like, from kayaking over rapids on the River Eden, racing down forest tracks in Grizedale or Whinlatter on a mountain bike or simply strolling along a quite country lane taking in the breathtaking views, observing the wildlife at your feet & exploring what England's Lake Country has to offer.

Wilderness - Cumbria gets pretty close. Walking the Lake District, heritage coast or the Pennines gives you a chance to spot wild animals, go bird watching, find rare plants, try wildlife photography, or help with nature conservation to protect these magnificent landscapes.
