Bleaberry Tarn

Bleaberry Tarn in front of Red Pike

Bleaberry Tarn is a small, natural mountain tarn on the fell slopes above Buttermere in the Lake District, within Cumberland.

It lies in a corrie below two Lakeland fells; Red Pike and High Stile, backed by Chapel Crags on the ridge between them. The footpath ascending Red Pike from Buttermere skirts its north side.

A stream named the Sour Milk Gill descends from the tarn to Buttermere, and is followed by one of the popular footpaths ascending Red Pike.
