Description

The Lake District is a natural beauty spot and one of the nations most treasured and visited areas. What better way to appreciate it than by taking to the skies with two friends to enjoy the view? The flight mimics the course of an Osprey, by cruising past the towering fells and soaring down to Bassenthwaite Lake in a Cessna 172. This National Park contains some of England’s highest mountains and deepest waters and the magnificent sights to behold from the plane are usually only seen by the hardiest of hill climbers.
