Gyms in Keswick

Skiddaw rises behind Keswick and Derwentwater lies to the south-west, so most training here happens outdoors, with a leisure pool and an independent gym for the rest.

Training in Keswick

A pool, a gym and a ring of fells.

Keswick Leisure Centre has a pool and a fitness suite, and Beyond Fitness Keswick is the independent gym. Keswick Judo Club and Mitsuru Karate cover martial arts and Yoga Adventures teaches yoga. Keswick Rugby Club plays here, and Derwent Hill is an outdoor education centre.

The fells do the rest. Skiddaw reaches 931 m, Latrigg looks back over the town and the lake, and the old railway to Threlkeld is now a footpath and cycle path. Each May the Keswick Mountain Festival runs four days of climbing, ghyll scrambling, canoeing and a triathlon. Someone to share a long day on the hills with makes them safer and more fun.
