Wast Water
Wastwater is England’s deepest lake and lies in the west of the Lake District National Park.
The view from the south-western end of the lake near the youth hostel was voted Britain’s Favourite View in 2007 by television viewers. The view takes in the lake with the mountains of Yewbarrow, Great Gable and Lingmell behind. It forms the basis for the National Park’s logo. Scafell Pike, England’s highest mountain, lies at the top of Lingmell.
