Lake Derwentwater
|
A short stroll onwards and the Lake path will bring you face to face with one of Europe's finest views, Friars Crag which affords a magnificent panoramic vista over Derwentwater. Framed by the ridge of Cat Bells to the West and the peaty wasteland of Bleaberry Fell to the East, this is a sight which has inspired poets and photographers alike. Friars Crag also bears a monument to Ruskin a Lake District famous poet whose home in Coniston is well worth a visit. |
