Welcome to Crummock Water

Crummock Water is a stunning lake located in the Lake District National Park in Cumbria, England. It is one of the largest lakes in the area, measuring approximately 2.5 miles long and half a mile wide. The lake is surrounded by breathtaking scenery, including the rugged peaks of the surrounding mountains and the lush greenery of the surrounding forests. Visitors to Crummock Water can enjoy a variety of outdoor activities, including hiking, fishing, and boating. The lake is also home to a variety of wildlife, including otters, herons, and ospreys.

One of the most unique features of Crummock Water is its crystal-clear waters. The lake is fed by a number of streams and rivers, which help to keep the water clean and clear. This makes it an ideal spot for swimming, kayaking, and other water-based activities. The lake is also home to a variety of fish, including brown trout and pike, making it a popular spot for fishing enthusiasts.

Crummock Water is also steeped in history and folklore. According to local legend, the lake is home to a mysterious creature known as the Crummock Water Monster. Sightings of the monster have been reported for centuries, with some claiming that it is a giant eel or serpent. Despite numerous attempts to capture or photograph the creature, it has never been conclusively proven to exist. Nevertheless, the legend of the Crummock Water Monster continues to capture the imaginations of visitors to the lake.
