It's a spectacular place! 18 million people visit the glorious landscape of the Lake District each year. That's 18 million unique memories and millions of unique experiences and reasons for coming to the beautiful county of Cumbria. We're inviting you to let the world know why you're in desperate need of an escape to the Lakes!

We think it's spectacular too! It's why we launched the 'Save Our Lake District' campaign. We believe that the Lake District National Park needs to be managed in a way that protects it from developments and activities that damage its remarkable beauty, conserves, restores and enhances its natural beauty, wildlife and cultural heritage, and provides opportunities for free access, enjoyment and connection with nature for everyone.
