The UK is renowned for its rolling hills and emerald pastures, the leafy forests and quiet waters. But of all the beautiful and magical landscapes, the Lake District holds a special place in the nation’s heart, being amongst the most popular destinations for tourists. Fell-walkers and their four-legged friends are often spotted meandering down the paths which wind through verdant valleys. Today we’re exploring the best dog walks in the Lake district.
With spectacular scenery, natural wonders and beautiful lakes — perfect for a doggy dip after a long walk — the Lake District is a dog walkers dream.
Here are some of our favourite dog walks in the Lake District.
Derwentwater Circuit, Keswick (10 miles)
Start from the National Trust shop in Derwentwater Lakeshore, and meander around the 10-mile circuit which winds its way between the shoreline and the ancient woodland bustling around the banks. The route is mostly on the flat, so even though it’s a lengthy walk, it’s suitable for most walkers. You’ll finish up in Portinscale Village.
