Bleaberry Tarn is a natural tarn lying to the south-west of Buttermere Lake, nestled in a corrie below Red Pike and High Stile in the Western Fells. It stands at an elevation of 497 m (1,631 ft) and its approximate depth is 5 m (16 ft). Its outflow, named Sour Milk Gill, descends from the tarn before entering Buttermere Lake.
The tarn is roughly a tear-drop shape and is surrounded by gentle heather-covered slopes on all sides. Bleaberry Tarn is frequently visited by walkers en route to Red Pike - a popular path runs alongside it and up to the summit, meaning the area is often busy.
