Trees over Derwentwater are abundant along the water's edge. These trees are located at the promontory of Friar's Crag with fine views of the surrounding fells. Cat Bells (451m), Maiden Moor (575m) and High Spy (646m) are the range in the centre.
Cat Bells has people traversing its spine all year round, even in wintery conditions but more so in the summer months. From the opposite shores of Derwentwater you can see the tiny specks of people moving in both directions likes ants along a felled tree. To experience this walk with fewer people you need to start early in the morning before the crowds appear. Photographing the natural beauty of the lakes and fells can be somewhat marred by the multitude of people so an early start is always advantageous if you prefer your landscapes without people in them. This, of course, does not always work and you just have to work with what you have and be a little more adventurous.
