BUTTERMERE - (04/03/05)

Buttermere in Cumbria's Lake District is featured on this page, to see a map showing where the Lake and Village are located click here.

To see other photos from Cumbria and the Lake District click here.

All the photos on this page are from a circular walk around the lake starting and ending at Buttermere Village. The photo on the left shows Sourmilk Gill at the northern end of the lake.
     
The walk is 4 miles in length and for most of the way is along good flat paths. The elevated views of the lake were taken on a diversion from the route to get a closer look at the waterfalls of Comb Beck.
     
 Peggy's Bridge is a great viewpoint, (centre photo) at the southern end of the lake.
     
Centre photo shows the view from the opposite side of the lake towards Comb Beck and the snow topped High Crag. Shortly before arriving back at Buttermere Village there is a short tunnel section of the walk, cut into the rock in the 19th century by George Benson, (right photo).
