Those wanting to pick up Christmas gifts for friends or family that often take holidays in the Lake District can now use the internet to purchase a range of items relating to the area.
The Lake District National Park has launched an online store in time for Christmas, selling gifts that reflect the "iconic" landscape of the Lakes.
Among the items available are books and DVDs, as well as maps and GPS equipment for those who like going waking in Cumbria.
Web editor for the national park Helen Reynolds said staff at information centres in the Lake District have chosen "a great selection of goods".
She noted that many of the products are also available at sites Keswick and Ullswater, adding that this will be a "terrific boost" for visitors wanting to do their Christmas shopping.
The Keswick Visitor Centre can be found in Moot Hall in Market Square and is open until 16:30 GMT daily, while the Ullswater site – which is in Glenridding, Penrith – only opens on weekends.
