Keswick Adventures Blog

As an experienced outdoor adventure guide Lee has spent many years running adventure activities across the UK and Europe. He set up Keswick Adventures to share his enthusiasm and vast knowledge with others so that they could make the most of the outdoor activities on offer in the beautiful Lake District.

Lee has loved the outdoors since he was a child, spending days climbing trees and rocks and camping with his dad. As he got older he expanded his interests into rock climbing, white water kayaking and caving. After climbing, diving, kayaking, and kitesurfing his way around the world, Lee returned to the UK and settled in Keswick surrounded by the mountains and lakes of the Lakes District. Now as an outdoor activity specialist he enjoys sharing his love and passion for the outdoors with people, helping them to enjoy and explore this wonderful part of the world.

Born and raised on the coast of West Cumbria, Kim has a lifelong love for the Lake District. As a writer she has been sharing her passion for Keswick and the Lake District for nearly ten years, with pieces featured in local and national publications.

With a love of exploring new places and the stunning scenery of the Lake District on her doorstep, Kim has developed expert knowledge of the area. Working in Keswick for a number of years, she knows the town well and loves sharing her favourite recommendations for places to eat, sleep, and play. With so much to choose from it’s hard to pick a favourite spot in the Lakes, but if pushed Kim would say her favourite spot is Loweswater. She also loves an adventure and makes the most of the activities available in the area, with canyoning being a particular favourite. On quieter days, you’ll find her wandering through the valleys and up the fells.
