We and our partners are working towards making this place an inspirational example of sustainable development in action. We want its prosperous economy, world class visitor experiences and vibrant communities to come together in sustaining the spectacular landscape, wildlife and cultural heritage. This is our vision for the Lake District in 2030.
We work in partnership
We're one of 22 organisations that make up the Lake District National Park Partnership with a shared vision for 2030, and a plan for how we will achieve it.

We work with volunteers
Our volunteers are invaluable, surveying pathways and cycleways, joining conservation parties, welcoming visitors and leading guided walks. 14-18 year olds can join our Young Rangers programme.

We work on projects
Some of our recent projects include:
- Green recovery at Brockhole, creating new habitats and engaging schools and families with nature conservation.
- Fix the Fells, a partnership project to repair and maintain over 400 miles of footpaths across the Lake District fells.
- West Windermere Way, a new accessible trail from the southern tip of Windermere lake up to the ferry crossing, joining to the existing trail that continues to the north of the lake.
- Sustainable transport options for summer, with shuttle buses, park and sail, and bike hire across the National Park.
- Routes to Resilience, restoring and improving paths and bridges following storm damage.
- Breasthigh Road, restoring a unsealed road and creating new areas of tree planting to reduce flood impacts.
