Easy accessible walk around 1 of the most beautiful waters in the lakes also the stunning Rydal caves are just above the lake

Mega little walk make sure you have good waterproof boots the water is a little deep in a few spots in the cave and a good torch head light for exploring the caves you could spend hour exploring great for the kids

Take wellies if you want to escape out through the tunnels. And torches if you want to do the longer one.

Cathedral Quarry's history dates back to the 16th century. It used to be known as the Little Langdale Quarries but often referred to as Cathedral Quarries nowadays the site was used to extract green slate. This slate is still used today to build walls and roofs in the area. In 1929 the quarry was bought by Beatrix Potter who later gave it to the National Trust.

Cathedral Cave is the largest cave in this old mine complex. You can explore the main chambers and venture deeper into the system. This area is owned by the National Trust, but entry is at your own risk and the site is not managed as an attraction. Remember to bring a torch, or you won't be able to get far.

Impressive, We were really lucky as we exited had two American fighter jets banking around spectacular

Fantastic walk but quite well known go early and avoid weekends if you can to get the place to yourself

Not much parking space nearby. Advise to park near main road at Skelwith and have a walk to the cave (1.5mi walk each way)
