Walking in the Lake District, nestled in the northwest of England, is a captivating destination for company wellbeing activities. Its iconic landscape of shimmering lakes, majestic mountains, and verdant valleys provides a picturesque backdrop for employees to rejuvenate their minds and bodies. Whether embarking on challenging hikes to summit peaks like Scafell Pike, England’s highest mountain, or enjoying leisurely walks along the tranquil shores of Lake Windermere, the Lake District offers countless opportunities for outdoor adventures and moments of peaceful reflection amidst its breathtaking scenery.
The Lake District’s rich cultural heritage and vibrant arts scene add depth and meaning to company retreats and team-building activities. Historic towns and villages such as Ambleside, Keswick, and Grasmere are steeped in history, with charming cottages, ancient churches, and quaint tea rooms lining their cobbled streets. Employees can immerse themselves in the region’s literary legacy, with connections to poets like William Wordsworth and Beatrix Potter, or explore the local arts and crafts scene, with galleries showcasing works by talented local artists. By embracing the Lake District’s natural beauty and cultural richness, employees can enhance their wellbeing, strengthen bonds with colleagues, and return to work feeling refreshed and inspired.
Its stunning natural beauty, particularly its lakes, mountains, and rolling hills makes it a haven for walkers of all abilities, with routes ranging from gentle lakeside strolls to challenging hikes up the highest peak in England. Our main events are generally at lower ground with great views of Snowdon but we can take you to the top of Scaffell on one of our extreme charity events which hosts amazing views.
