Bleach Green Car Park, Ennerdale Water

Highlight • Parking

A free car park with 40 spaces, found on the western tip of Ennerdale Water.

The Fox & Hounds Pub, Ennerdale Bridge

Highlight • Pub

A classic country pub with two roaring log fires, a beer garden, fine ales and traditional pub grub. If you've taken your hound for a jaunt in the surrounding fells, you're in luck: the owners actively encourage you to bring your dog. If staying overnight in Ennerdale, the pub has three spacious en-suite rooms.

The Gather Café

Highlight • Cafe

The Gather is a very comfortable & welcoming cafe, shop and exhibition space. It’s staffed by volunteers and run as a not-for-profit community resource. Places like this can help to keep tiny villages alive as functioning communities instead of just des-res dormitories for the wealthy. If you’re visiting Ennerdale Water, make sure you stop in at The Gather for your lunch, and make a real contribution to keeping Lake District communities alive.

Grike Summit Cairn

Highlight • Viewpoint

A nice easy hike from the Ennerdale to Calder road. There are a few parking spots on that road but not many. I wish I could say it has good views but for the second day in a row I saw nothing from the high spots of the Western Fells.

Crag Fell Summit

Highlight • Summit

I wish I could say I had good views from here but the weather was horrid. I hiked this at the same time as Grike and Lank Rigg by parking on the Ennerdale to Calder road. Good paths but had no view at all today.
