Volunteers needed! March 26... we're heading back to Alpacaly Ever After at Basecamp North to plant more hedges - and meet some very friendly alpacas! We had a brilliant time there in the autumn!

#wildfells and #tranquillity - that’s why we have a National Park. https://t.co/Mk75SC10Tv
How would you describe the aura of the #lakedistrict? Its essence, the things that have made it a World Heritage Site and a National Park, cherished by millions?
Two options, mutually exclusive: tranquillity or off-roading ⬇️
This is a fantastic victory for the long running campaign to clean up our beautiful Windermere.
Liberal Democrats will continue to hold ministers feet to the fire to make sure they honour their promise to protect Windermere.

This is excellent news!

Please put an end to intrusive and destructive off-roading on our fellow tracks.

Unfortunately it’s also a destination for off-roaders from all over Europe. Some tracks, like at Tilberthwaite, are part of a European network for off-road motorbikes. Please explore what this does to the landscape! On NT land! @nationaltrust@lakedistrictnpa@FriendsofLakes
A cloud inversion slowly rising off the fells in Ambleside to reveal the landscape which has been so extensively written about & which, since 2017, has been deemed a ‘Cultural Landscape’ with UNESCO World Heritage status - a journey & identification which we explore on our MA📚🍃
If you don’t like off-roading in the Langdales - Great or Little - write to Lakes Parish Council at [email protected]
Next week Wednesday 22nd is the deadline.
Green lanes are ancient tracks, mainly used by walkers, cyclists and horse riders as well as farmers. But many can also be used by 4x4s and motocross bikes. Lakes Parish Council is doing a consultation on green lanes and now's your chance to have your say...
