Autumn is simply an incredible time to visit the Lake District National Park. During the autumnal months your days can be spent crunching through freshly fallen leaves. You can enjoy the excitement at finding a big shiny conker. You can admire wondrously colourful displays of mushrooms, toadstools and other fascinating fungi. You can wander amongst ancient trees ablaze with golden, red and orange hues. And you can gaze at spectacular fellsides swathed in crisp & curling bronzed bracken.
