Wast Water is the deepest lake in the Lake District and is
over looked by Scafell pike which at 3206 feet is England's
highest mountain. There is only one narrow road which runs
up the north side of the lake but there are passing places
and small car paks where tourists can stop for a picnic or
to admire the magnificent screes which disappear into the
water on the opposite side. Wast water always seems remote
but it is a truly magnificent place. At the top end of the
Lake there is a terrific pub, which has the largest selection
of whiskies you would probably ever see.
