Langdale Pikes from Windermere

On Rayrigg Road A592 heading towards Ambleside from Bowness is an excellent viewpoint where you can see over the lake towards the Langdale Pikes. During summer the sun sets over the Langdale Pikes viewed from here, a spectacular view! During the day there is often an ice cream van parked here too!
