Always fancied a trip around Derwent Water and a few others down there. Faster and more enjoyable in a kayak though as I'm sure you'll find out at some point. blueskyscotlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09373718369702364265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429013260986201371.post-81578879382230994682016-06-13T09:03:48.187+01:002016-06-13T09:03:48.187+01:00Hi Kay,

Midges bite from May to September in the Scottish Highlands with July and August the peak months. Not so bad on the east coast due to a drier climate plus less bracken and rarely as troublesome in the Lake District. The Avon product "skin so soft" seems to work in repelling them although I have heard they changed the formula slightly. blueskyscotlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09373718369702364265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429013260986201371.post-36087496441931011482016-06-11T00:33:19.990+01:002016-06-11T00:33:19.990+01:00You have lovely places to go paddling.
