Other walks in the area
Seathwaite tarn

Lovely circular walk to Seathwaite tarn from the village of Seathwaite.
Hall Dunnerdale to Dow Crag and the Old Man back via Seathwaite Tarn
A long and interesting walk from Hall Dunnerdale which could also be started from other places nearby. You will take in some lovely rolling countryside followed by a gradual ascent up a picturesque valley before making the climb up to Brown Pike. From here you are on the high Lakeland fells and take in numerous tops including the Old Man of Coniston. You descend carefully to Seathwaite Tarn and then back to Seathwaite where the Newfield Inn will welcome you with great beer and food.
The Scafells from Eskdale
This challenging Lake District walk includes Scafell and Scafell Pike in a single circuit using the long approach from the Esk Valley. There are some sections of the route that require care and experience in map reading is essential.
Harter Fell and Low Birker Tarn (Eskdale)
Harter Fell occupies a relatively isolated position overlooking the Eskdale valley and this Lake District walk offers some wonderful views towards Scafell and Scafell Pike. The route also includes a visit to pretty Low Birker Tarn, which sees relatively few visitors.
Little Stand, The Crinkles and Bowfell : From Cockley Beck

A lovely walk taking in the excellent and interesting Crinkle Crags and with great views down Great Langdale, over to the Scafell group and south down the Duddon Valley. The start up Little Stand and the descent from Ore Gap are without the heavily trodden paths now common in the Lake District.
There are a few small parking spaces near Cockley Beck heading west towards Hardknott Pass. Please park sensibly so other walkers and climbers and get in too.
Hardknott fort and Tongue Pot

Walk to Hardknott fort and Tongue Pot. Dog friendly walk. Perfect walk to go wild swimming.
Slight Side from Whahouse Bridge
A Lake District walk to a summit often only visited in passing. The route starts in Eskdale and takes a direct approach to the top.
YHA hopping in The Lake District - YHA Eskdale to YHA Coniston Holly How
The YHA is a great institution and I guess most fell walkers have stayed at a hostel at some time in their lives. Funny how they were created "to help all, especially young people of limited means, to a greater knowledge, love and care of the countryside, particularly by providing hostels or other simple accommodation for them on their travels". Here's a collection of routes starting or finishing at a YHA in The Lakes. Along the way are 3 Wainwrights, 4 tarns and 1 pub.
