Threlkeld

England

Threlkeld sits between Blencathra and Helvellyn in the northern Lake District, accessible via the A66 from the M6 at Penrith or from west Cumbria. The village serves as a base for the challenging Sharp Edge route up Blencathra, with Keswick just 7km away. The Threlkeld Quarry and Mining Museum operates narrow-gauge railway rides through old quarry workings.
