September is one of our favourite months for a holiday in the Lake District. While the Lake District is well known for its unreliable weather, average weather data shows that September continues to enjoy milder temperatures, ranging between highs of 15°C and lows of 9°C. These temperatures are ideal for hiking its fells and woodland trails without overheating or getting too cold, so you can enjoy outdoor pursuits without the summer crowds.
Rainfall also remains lower than average into September, with just 12 rainy days during the month on average, so you should be in with a good chance of getting a few dry days during your stay. It's hard to think of anywhere in England that offers more to do outdoors than in the Lakes. From the peaks of Scarfell Pike to the shores of Windermere, there's nowhere better to be on a sunny day.
