Lake District
The Lake District, once hailed by National Geographic as “one of the fifty places you must visit in your lifetime,” is a rare gem in central England. As the largest national park in England, it boasts vast expanses of land and diverse landscapes. Here you’ll find stunning lakes, towering mountains, picturesque valleys, and vibrant coastlines. So, it’s not just about one single route here. There are up to 8 different trails for you to choose from.
You can stroll through the two towns surrounding the Lake District, exploring the culture of Windermere and Ambleside; you can hop on a yacht or other boats to navigate the third-largest lake in the Lake District, Coniston Water, or choose to hike along the shores; you can also pack your camping gear and venture into Langdale Valley, hike up the valley, pitch your tent, and enjoy the natural scenery… There’s always a route that suits you. If you have ample time, why not stay in the Lake District for a few days and explore more trails!
Seven Sister Cliff
Surely, this is a place everyone is familiar with! Dubbed as the “edge of the world,” the Seven Sister Cliff has been recommended countless times by social media platforms like Little Red Book, making it one of the must-visit spots for tourists to the UK in recent years. But it’s also a fantastic place for hiking.
The Seven Sister Cliff is composed of seven weathered and eroded cliffs, namely: Haven Brow, Short Brow, Rough Brow, Brass Point, Gap House, Flat Hill, and Flagstaff Brow. Climbing each cliff offers a brand new perspective of the landscape. Moreover, sheep and seagulls will accompany you throughout your journey, admiring the scenery together. This place is not only a hiker’s paradise but also ideal for photography, picnics, surfing, birdwatching, and even serves as a filming location for many movies and TV shows. Why not dress in your best attire and visit the edge of the world?
