Lake District Mountains & Fells

Lake District Lakes & Waters

The Cumbrian Lake District in the northwest of England consists of a series of lakes and mountains, and is one of the most beautiful regions in the world.

The Lake District is made up of series of lakes, mountain tarns and streams, and a mountain range that rises to over 900 metres above sea level on four summits.

The Lake District covers an area of 50 kilometres from the north to the south and 40 kilometres from the west to the east.

The northern, southern and eastern lowland border regions are important for the county’s agricultural industry, with sheep raising and dairying the predominant industries of the area.
