About: Red Tarn

An Entity of Type: place, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Red Tarn is a small lake in the eastern region of the English Lake District, in the county of Cumbria. It is high up on the eastern flank of Helvellyn, beneath Striding Edge and Catstye Cam. Red Tarn was formed when the glacier that carved out the eastern side of Helvellyn had melted. The lake along with three others in Lake District is a habitat for the very rare and endangered Schelly fish. Red Tarn was a dam in the nineteenth century that used boulders that raised the water level some eight or nine feet in order to supply power to the Greenside Mine at Glenridding. Today the tarn is a popular rest stop for hikers and nature goers.

dbo:abstract
  • Der Red Tarn ist ein See im Lake District, Cumbria, England. Der Red Tarn liegt an der Ostflanke des Helvellyn innerhalb einer kleinen Talmulde, die man in diesem Gebiet Corrie nennt. An der Ost- und Südseite des Sees erhebt sich die Striding Edge, ein Grat, der die Verbindung von Helvellyn und Nethermost Pike herstellt und zu den bekannten Aufstiegsrouten auf den Helvellyn gehört. Im Norden des Sees liegt der Catstye Cam. Der Red Tarn ist ein natürlicher See, der 1840 aber mit einer Mauer versehen wurde, um seine Kapazität zu erhöhen und das Wasser damit für eine Bleimine im unterhalb gelegenen Tal zu nutzen. Heute sind nur noch Reste dieser Mauer zu sehen und der See ist auf seine natürlichen Wasserstand zurückgefallen. Der Red Tarn hat keinen erkennbaren Zufluss, aber der Red Tarn Beck, der in den Glenridding Beck mündet, bildet seinen Abfluss an seiner Ost-Seite. (de)
