   • Derwentwater. Ten minutes on foot from the town centre, Derwentwater is Keswick’s headline attraction and has a shoreline mostly managed by the National Trust.
   • Castlerigg Stone Circle. It’s hard to conceive of a prehistoric monument in a more sublime location than the Castlerigg Stone Circle. Standing here, surrounded by the formidable fells of Skiddaw, Blencathra, Castlerigg Fell, High Rigg and Clough Head, you can understand how prehistoric inhabitants might have concluded this was a very important place.
   • Catbells. On Derwentwater’s western shore is one of the Lake District’s most treasured fells. At 451 metres, Catbells has a modest height and a moderate grassy slope that can be tackled by walkers of almost any age and fitness.
   • Keswick Museum and Art Gallery. The town’s museum dates from the 19th century and bounced around a few venues in Keswick like the Moot Hall, before arriving at this purpose-built in 1898.
