Eden Valley & North Pennines

The Eden region gets its name from the river that runs through most of its length. Lacey’s Caves, on the upper banks of the Eden, which were dug out of the red sandstone rocks, can be reached from the village of Great Salkeld.

Nearby to the market town of Appleby is Rutter Force – an impressive waterfall, which powers a mill wheel. The two main lakes in this region are Ullswater, and Haweswater (which is actually a reservoir) both which lie within the Lake District National Park.

England’s best known ridge – Striding Edge, climbs up to Helvellyn, which is the Lake District’s third highest mountain.
