Ashness Bridge

Ashness Bridge is perhaps the most photographed packhorse bridge in the Lake District due to its location and stunning views. This extremely popular viewpoint looks out over Derwentwater with spectacular views over Bassenthwaite Lake and the River Derwent.

 

From nearby 'surprise view' you can see how great ice sheets carved out this impressive landscape: you have an uninterrupted view across Derwentwater and onto the Solway and the distant shores of Scotland.
