This year's Keswick Mountain Festival gets underway on
Wednesday May 18th and will bring an intriguing line-up of guest
speakers to the Cumbrian town.
TV survival expert Ray Mears and UK climbing legend Sir Chris Bonington are just two
of the figures scheduled to appear during the five-day event, with both men due to
give talks at the Theatre by the Lake.
Visitors to the festival have an abundance of special activities to look forward to,
with several triathlons taking place for athletes who fancy putting their stamina to
the test.
As well as a varied programme of climbing, cycling, hiking and orienteering events
to help people get out and enjoy the mountains, the festival runs photography
courses and a schedule of family fun events for youngsters to try new activities.
Ghyll scrambling is one of the challenges specifically designed for families, with
participants shown how to safely slide and scramble their way down a steep mountain
stream.
The festival runs until Sunday May 22nd and tickets for each event are priced
individually.
