Blea Tarn to Great Langdale Descent

Highlight • Viewpoint

One of the best views in the Lakes. A terrible surface down though. Take care.

It's great around here, especially in autumn when it's a little quieter and the colours really pop. Super interesting fact: Beatrix Potter actually used to own the Tarns, having bought them in 1929 before selling half to the National Trust. Over on golakes.co.uk/travel there's loads of useful information about getting around here.
