Other walks in the area
Old Man of Coniston by Goat's water
Circular walk starting from Coniston village and going to the Old Man of Coniston passing by Goat's water. Incredible view at the top of the Old Man of Coniston summit.
The Saddle of Coniston

A lovely walk, climbing up alongside the waterfalls of Church Beck to the quarry at the end of the Coppermines valley, returning via the saddle with beautiful views of Coniston village and the lake. You can end the walk with a well-deserved pint in one of the cosy village pubs. A great walk to start your holiday.
Coppermines
A taste of the high fells, with photogenic waterfalls and fascinating industrial relics.
Waterhead
A stroll through the village and down to the lake.
Torver and Coniston Water
A long but mostly level walk, with an extended unbroken section along the lakeshore.
YHA hopping in The Lake District - YHA Coniston Holly How to YHA Grasmere
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 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 6 Wainwrights, 3 tarns, and 1 pub.
