This week is National Parks Week so we thought we’d go with that theme for today’s Tuesday Huesday post.

One of our favourite places to visit in the UK is the Lake District National Park in Cumbria. It’s only about an hour and a half’s drive from where we live and the scenery is spectacular. We try to go at least 3 or 4 times a year – it’s lovely seeing the way the landscape changes throughout the different seasons.

This photo is of Loughrigg Tarn (Tarn is derived from an Old Norse word for lake). This lake is very accessible, there’s a car park and path suitable for push chairs and wheelchairs. The two rounded peaks in the background of the photo are known as the Langdale Pikes which, from experience,  are a fair bit harder to ascend!
