Keswick is a market town in the English Lake District, set among fells and lakes in the north-west of England. For a visitor, it works well as a base: the town centre is compact, and the shores of Derwentwater are close enough to reach on foot.

Walking and the lakes

The surrounding fells make Keswick a natural starting point for walkers of many levels. Routes can be chosen to suit the time and energy you have, from a stroll along the lakeside to a longer day on the hills. Derwentwater's shoreline is the easiest introduction to the landscape, and it is a short walk from the town.

Town and culture

Keswick has a relaxed, market-town character. Visitors will find:

outdoor gear shops, useful if you need boots, waterproofs or maps before heading out

cosy pubs, a good place to end a day on the fells

the town's pencil museum, which suits anyone curious about culture and local history

The mix of hillwalking, lakeside scenery and small-town browsing makes Keswick a good choice for nature lovers and for those who want something a little more gentle as well.
