Our first Wainwright Wanderings of 2026. Stony Cove Pike and Hartsop Dodd. Still the occasional patch of snow and ice. No views at all! In 4 hours of walking only saw 2 people. #Wainwright's #lakedistrict #winterwalking

Early start doing the Coledale Horseshoe. Tinged with regret at not taking the big camera #iphonephoto #landscapephotography #lakedistrict

Good morning. A grey start out there today but at least it isnt raining. #LakeDistrict #Lakes #Cumbria

"I’ve spent 12 months translating the Lake District weather into stanzas. The question remains: Is the Lakes better in the glorious sun or the brooding rain? I know which one inspires more poetry... tell me your preference below. #LakeDistrict #WeatherTalk #WritingCommunity #Poll #HikingUK"

Atkinson's Monument close to the summit of Caudale Moor in the Far Eastern Fells in the Lake District on a cold, crips winter dawn. Red Screes sits in the distance to the right of the frame. #lakedistrict #cumbria #wainwrights #landscapes #mountains

I happened to be passing so I dropped in at the Castlerigg stone circle near Keswick this morning and there was *nobody else there* for a few minutes. This very rare phenomenon only occurs when the sun and the moon are in a very specific position relative to each other. #LakeDistrict

#scape A beautiful autumn day at Derwent Water, Keswick, Cumbria. It is the subject of the Landscape Artist of the Year 2026 on Sky Arts tonight (Freeview channel 36). I wonder what views will inspire them 🤔 #keswick #lakedistrict #cumbria #lakes #mountains #nature #art #photography #eastcoastkin

Part of the Neolithic stone circle at Castlerigg, near Keswick in Cumbria. Constructed in around 3000 BC, Castlerigg is one the earliest stone circles in Britain. 📸 My own. #StandingStoneSunday #Prehistory #Cumbria #Castlerigg

I feel I missed most of the sunny and frosty weather due to a three-week long cold 😷. On the road to recovery we snatched a walk up the lovely Whitbarrow yesterday before the rain arrived. Snow plastered the #LakeDistrict fells but it was just icy on this outlying fell. I was tired but happy.

Dreaming of this view from the excellently-named Sourfoot Fell over towards Crummock Water and Mellbreak. Not a breath of wind and only the sound was of a single large bee, buzzing lazily nearby. #LakeDistrict #Bringonthespring
