Derwent Water: The Jewel of England’s Lake District
Summary

What struck me most about Keswick was the diversity of languages spoken by its visitors. This town is more cosmopolitan than I expected, blending modernity with its historical roots. Despite the presence of many well-known retailers, Keswick retains its antique charm.
Yet, as charming as Keswick is, it’s not the main attraction. That honor belongs to Derwent Water, a breathtakingly beautiful lake just outside the town center, nestled in the Lake District National Park. This picturesque setting has captivated audiences for centuries, drawing artists and poets back time and again.
A unique way to experience Derwent Water is by hiring a boat. The lake is speckled with intriguing islands just begging to be explored, offering a fun and affordable activity for the whole family.
The journey to Derwent Water unfolds through a landscape of rolling green hills and deep valleys. As I traveled north from Windermere along the A591, the clouds parted, allowing sunlight to flood the valley and chase away shadows. The scene was one of serene contentment.
Passing by Rydal Water, the road runs alongside its northern shore. Across the water, families enjoy picnics and paddling in the cool, shallow waters, embraced by grassy banks.
The road rises toward Helvellyn’s imposing 950-meter summit, a favorite among hikers in the Lake District. I recall reaching the summit on a school trip, filled with awe then as I am now.
Lake Thirlmere, reminiscent of Canada’s great lakes, albeit smaller, is surrounded by tall trees. Occasionally, the foliage opens to reveal a dazzling stretch of water, where small boats glide along its surface.
As the road climbs through the hills, it presents a stunning view of Keswick, snuggled among gentle hills that seem to guard it. For centuries, these hills have watched over Derwent Water and Keswick as the town evolved from its medieval origins. Though modern touches have appeared, Keswick steadfastly holds onto its ancient roots.
