This live stream sits in Keswick, a market town on the northern edge of the English Lake District. It is a good place to check conditions before a walk or drive into the fells, or simply to see how the town looks right now.
About Keswick and its setting
Keswick lies in Cumbria at the head of Derwent Water, one of the best-known lakes in the national park. The town is surrounded by fells, including Skiddaw to the north, and has long been a base for walkers, climbers and visitors interested in the area's mountain scenery and its history of pencil making. Its streets are lined with stone buildings, and the lake and hills are never far away.
What to watch on the stream
The camera is titled as a northern lights gallery, so its view is connected with the dark skies of the region. Depending on the view, you may see the town, the surrounding hillsides or the sky itself. Clear, dark nights are the most rewarding time to watch, since the northern lights are only visible when the sky is clear and the solar activity is strong. Daytime views are better for checking weather and visibility.
Climate and getting around
Keswick has a mild but wet climate, with frequent rain throughout the year and cooler, cloudier conditions in winter. Late spring and summer are the most popular times to visit for walking. The nearby cameras on this site show Derwent Water, the view towards Skiddaw, and the Braithwaite and Ullswater views, which together give a useful picture of conditions across the wider Lake District.
