Ambleside Sports
For over 200 years, locals and visitors alike have enjoyed Cumberland & Westmorland Wrestling believed by some to have been introduced by the Vikings over 1000 years ago.
It's still one of the main draws to local event, Ambleside Sports - particularly as the wearing of the traditional costume is required!
The Sports is a fantastic family day out and attended by visitors and locals who enjoy the traditional Lakeland Sports and competitive events including cycling, fell running and hound trailing.
There is also plenty to browse and buy in the Made in Cumbria Craft Marquee, plus there's so much more to mention including:
- Craft Exhibits
- Practical Displays
- A Fully Stocked Beer Tent
- Arena Events
- Rydal Round Fell Race
- Devil Takes Hindmost Cycling Event
- Junior and Senior Competitions
- Fantastic surroundings and a great atmosphere
