  4. H Obrázek 4 CatbellsNorthern Ascent, Lake District Catbells is a fell in the English Lake District in the county of Cumbria. It has a modest height of 451 metres,but despite this it is one of the most popular fells in the area. It is situated on the western shore of Derwent Water , 3 miles of the busy tourist town of Keswick.

  5. H Lakeof the big peak is a natural lake in the county of Powys, Wales. Obrázek 5 Llyny FanFawr

  6. H H Obrázek 6 Cloughaheather Obrázek 7 ScafellPike Scafell Pike is one of a horseshoe of high fells, open to the south, surrounding the head of Eskdale, Cumbria. It stands on the western side of the cirque with Scafell to the south and Great End to the north. This ridge forms the watershed between Eskdale and Wasdale lyinginto the west. Scafell Pike consists of igneous rock dating from the Ordovician geologically part of the BorrowdaleVolcanics. The summit plateau of Scafell Pikeis covered with shattered rock debris which provides the highest altitude example of a summit boulder field in England.

  8. Mountains and Moorlands

  9. While Snowdonia contains a mix of volcanic rocks and sedimentary rocks of Cambrian and Ordovician age, the mountains of South Wales are predominantlyDevonian age Old Red Sandstone and Carboniferous Limestone and similarly aged sandstones. H Obrázek 10 ViewoverLlynLlygadRheidol

  12. H Obrázek 14 The Exmoor landscape with the native ExmoorPony. Moorland is a type of habitat, in the temperate grasslands, savannas, shrublands biome, found in upland areas, characterised by low-growing vegetation on acidic soils and heavy fog. Moorland nowadays generally means uncultivated hill land -Dartmoor in South West England,but the Old English mōr also refers to low-lying wetlands (such as Sedgemoor). Moorrefers to highland, high rainfall zones, whereas heath refers to lowland zones which are likely to be the result of human activity.

  16. Coniferousforestsprovideshelterforshyanimals, such as pine martens and deer. Birds such as goldcrests, crossbills and long-earedowlslive in these woods. WoodyCones

  17. They bear fruit such as nuts, pods and berries. Broad – leaved woods are a mixtureof many different species of trees. But in a mature deciduous wood there are usuallymore trees of one species than another. They are also a mixture of many differenttypes of plants. Each type grows at a different level and forms a distinct layer (mosses,fungi grow close to the earth and make a ground layer, flowers and ferns reach up fartherand form the next layer, then come the bushes in what is called the shrub layer. The leafytops of the tall trees form the canopy.
