Short walk from Keswick to the nearby Castlerigg Stone Circle, a neolithic stone circle built around 3000 BC. Great 360 degree views of the surrounding peaks from here, which includes some of the highest peaks of the Lake District - Helvellyn at 951 m, Skiddaw at 931 m, and Blencathra at 868 m. Would love to climb some of these in sunnier weather!
Brings back lots of memories. Done all these 3, Helvellyn in the snow, Blencathra in v heavy rain.
