Other walks in the area
YHA hopping in The Lake District - YHA Ambleside to YHA Patterdale
The YHA is a great institution and I guess most fell walkers have stayed at a hostel at some time in their lives. They were created "to help all, especially young people of limited means, to 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, there are 7 Wainwrights, 2 lakes, 1 tarn and 1 pub.
YHA hopping in The Lake District - YHA Ambleside to Windermere Station
Here's a collection of routes starting or finishing at a YHA in The Lakes. Along the way are one Wainwright, one waterfall and one pub. This is a fairly simple route and a good way to say goodbye to The Lakes. The Stockghyll Falls are impresive and a certain Victorian atmosphere surrounds the place.
Loughrigg Fell from Ambleside by Lily Tarn
A medium level walk with gorgeous views on Ambleside and distant summits. Dog friendly walk.
The Fairfield Horseshoe from Ambleside
The Fairfield horseshoe includes seven other Lake District fells. Low Pike, High Pike, Dove Crag and Hart Crag form the outward route with the return over Great Rigg, Heron Pike and Nab Scar back to Ambleside via Rydal. This is a high level route so choose a good day to make the most of the views.
Rydal Cave
Short walk to see the famous Rydal cave. Dog friendly walk.
Rydal - Loughrigg Fell
A few kilometres from Ambleside, a walk to the top of Loughrigg Fell overlooking the lakes of the National Park Lake District.
