Other walks in the area

A lake, two waterfalls and Cathedral Quarry. A low level lakeland

Departure from Lakes (Westmorland and Furness)

This is a low level lakeland walk suitable for a short day. It takes in Elter Water, Skelwith Force and Colwith Force waterfalls before heading through farmland to the impressive Cathedral Quarry. The return leg passes a good pub which serves food and then through the working slate quarry above Chapel Stile.

Stickle Gill, Stickle Tarn and Blea Rigg from Chapel Stile

Departure from Lakes (Westmorland and Furness)

A circular walk from Chapel Stile along the Great Langdale valley to the New Dungeon Gill Hotel. Then an ascent along the pleasant Stickle Gill to Stickle tarn followed by the ascent to Blea Rigg and a return to Chapel Stile along the ridge.

Langdale Valley Bottom circular

Departure from Lakes (Westmorland and Furness)

A short, and mainly flat, walk which circumnavigates the bottom of the Langdale valley. Good for half a day or when the tops are clagged in. It passes both of the Dungeon Ghyll hotels where refreshments are available.

Loughrigg Tarn and Loughrigg Fell from Elterwater

Departure from Lakes (Westmorland and Furness)

This is a short walk with a lot of interest. Despite it not tackling any of the major Lakeland summits the views over Loughrigg Tarn are excellent and the panorama from Loughrigg Fell is one of the best. The descent through the arboretum of High Close and Low Wood maintains the interest. This is a great walk for a half day, perhaps when it has rained and then has started to brighten up.

Little Langdale and Black Fell Circular

Departure from Lakes (Westmorland and Furness)

A varied walk taking in woodland, a quarry, farmland, the open fell side and finishing beside a river with a waterfall and then the lake side at Elterwater.

Lingmoor and Great Langdale

Departure from Lakes (Westmorland and Furness)

This is a circular walk from Elterwater which crosses Lingmoor before descending to Blea Tarn and then returning via Great Langdale. There are great opportunities for photography; from the snake like wall running across Lingmoor, the Langdale Pikes and reflections in the lake at Blea Tarn, plus the rural scenery in Great Langdale on the return leg.
