From ‘good walks spoilt’ to full-on iron man challenges, there’s no shortage of sporting activities in the Lake District, Cumbria. Gentler pursuits include golf and archery; should you want to ramp up the adrenaline charge you can get up on a horse and spot your targets with paintballing; and if you really want to test your endurance, you can sign up to one of Cumbria’s many competitive races held throughout the year, in the water, on a bike or a good old-fashioned run.
