The #ullswater #hopperbus service for 2025 starts TODAY! Currently, it is weekends only but will be a 7 day service in the summer, making a lot of difference to the number of cars in the valley. #ullswaterhopperbus #ullswaterway

Very dry underfoot which makes for easy going but please be aware of the fire risk. #Wildfires have already occurred in the #lakedistrict this year 🔥 📸 Brownrigg Well still flowing on the flanks of #Helvellyn Zac

Morning everyone I hope you are well. A bit of sunshine has returned! Some splendid views from High Stile across Crummock Water and beyond. Have a great day. #LakeDistrict

Blencathra or Saddleback? I prefer Blencathra, it derives from Cumbric, old Welsh, a Celtic language. ‘Blain-Cadeir’ meant ‘summit seat’. The N Lakes is a melting pot of dialects and has been part of the kingdoms of both Strathclyde + Rheged in its past. @ old-north.co.uk

It’s soon #halfterm and what’s better than getting the kids out to run off some energy in #LakeDistrict

It's still winter on #Helvellyn #stridingedge can be climbed entirely on rock with careful route choice but #swirreledge is still in full winter condition and crampons & and ice axe are essential #summitsafely Zac

There's not a huge amount of snow left apart from on the highest #lakedistrict summits but its forecast to freeze overnight so #crampons & #iceaxe will be required for anyone venturing onto the snow on Wed #summitsafely #beadventuresmart Zac

When snow and wind combine! Rime and snow flutings on the #Helvellyn summit shelter. Challenging navigation in whiteout conditions to find this sanctuary. Goggles, crampons, an ice axe, 4 pairs of gloves, map & compass & coffee were all essential for a safe adventure today. Zac

Morning everyone I hope you are well. The beautiful Church in Chapel Stile (Holy Trinity) with Thrang Crag as the backdrop. Apparently in old Norse (a lot of Lake names derive from the Viking settlements), Thrang meant narrow. Have a great day. #lakedistrict

The latest conditions report from the #felltopassessors is at lakedistrictweatherline.co.uk Winter is fully in charge on the high fells so please check the weather forecast and ask yourself if your skills and equipment are up to your planned adventures 🥶 #beadventuresmart Zac

Take a bracing walk then come home to a warming relax in our Laconium

Your perfect winter break with colour and comfort #LakeDistrict

With fresh snow on the tops expect a shift back to winter conditions over the next few days, with caution needed ⚠️ Check out forecasts & conditions beforehand ‼️

Really disappointed to see thousands of balloons being released in Liverpool in the memory of Welsh drag queen "The Vivienne" These balloons go on to entangle and choke wildlife it's something I often see firsthand.

@BBCNews did the man and dog survive? He posted a video of flames outside his house which was shown on @BBCNews

Mountain rescue teams are volunteers. Every call-out puts their lives at risk as much as yours. Safety warnings aren’t there to spoil your fun — they’re there to help you come home safely, without putting others in danger. With this cold snap continuing, if you see someone about to head off on an ill-prepared adventure, give them a friendly word of advice: don’t be an eejit. 🚨 Walkers ‘waist-deep in snow’ rescued from mountain: bbc.com/news/articles/…
