    Hiking

    Borrans Park is a popular place for families and picnickers, offering splendid views of the surrounding fells and across the lake to Waterhead. It's close to the Roman fort at Galava too.

    Great little park to walk around. Right next door to a Roman fort.

    At the end of Lake Windermere this grassy park gives nice views of the lake and access to the remains of the Roman fort.
