View of Loweswater

Highlight • Lake

A favourite view - with a memorial bench; great place for a snack stop.

Buttermere is the highest up the valley or most easterly. Next is Crummock Water which is the longest of the three lakes in the Buttermere valley. It's managed by the National Trust. The road along the valley is lovely to ride running right along the banks for some sections.
Good pub and café in Buttermere village and lots of options for picnic or swimming spots all along this road.

Newlands Pass Climb from Buttermere

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Pass

This is a great little climb, with steep sections at the start and the end. Fantastic views along the way if you have the energy to notice them. This is also a climb that features in the Fred Whitton sportive, and worth ticking off your list if you have not done it before, or one that you can enjoy again and again. You can fit this into a route which includes various other climbs as it sits between Honister Pass and Whinlatter Pass. There is also a great little cafe (Croft House Farm Cafe) at the start of the climb in Buttermere if you need an energy boost before taking it on.

Whinlatter Pass Climb from Braithwaite

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

One of the best climbs in the area. A steady climb on forest lined roads up to the Whinlatter vistor centre. A good challenge but not as murderous as Honister Pass or Newlands Hause. A must for anyone visiting on a road bike.
