Day Two - Keswick To Ashness Bridge - Monday 23rd March 2026

 The plan for today, was to walk from Keswick town and along the banks of Derwent Water and up to Ashness Bridge, taking in the scenery and beautiful views of Catbells and the stunning fells surrounding the area.

The walk takes in some lovely scenery along the eastern shore of Derwent Water, with several lovely bays, such as Calfclose and Barrow Bays. The former had a few pairs of Goldeneye feeding and the latter a lovely pair of Red-breasted Mergs.

The walk up the hill to Ashness Bridge is fairly steep and not for anyone with breathing or heart problems, but once you get up there it is a lovely setting and there are some great views of Derwent Water and beyond.

A lovely day today with the following being my favourite photos from our day.
