Revise: Economic Activity and Management in Glaciated LandscapesEnvironmental impacts: visitors concentrate at honeypot sites, where litter, footpath erosion and damage from parking on verges become serious problems. Cat Bells, near Keswick, is an accessible walk where heavy use has caused substantial path erosion. Cars and boats contribute pollution, while repeated trampling along Windermere's shore damages vegetation and exposes soil to erosion.
