Other walks in the area
Hartsop Dodd, Stony Cove Pike and Kirkstone Pass from Hartsop
This Lake District hike includes two Wainwrights and a famous Lakeland Pass so is never short of interest. The first part of the walk involves a steep ascent but this is not as bad as it looks. Once the summit of Hartsop Dodd is reached the going is relatively easy and straightforward. The second Wainwright of Stony Cove Pike is soon reached followed by the descent to Kirkstone Pass and Brothers Water.
Angle Tarn and Rest Dodd

A steady climb up to Angle Tarn from Hartsop via Boredale Hause followed by a stroll along a ridge with great views over to Helvellyn then up to Rest Dodd dropping down to Hayeswater and back to the car park.
A greater Hayeswater Round

A walk with the best views of both Southern and Northern Lakeland and Roman history.
Deepdale circular
A good climb up to Fairfield for all round views and a stretch for the legs
YHA hopping in the Lake District - YHA Patterdale to YHA Grasmere
Here's a collection of routes starting or finishing at a YHA in The Lakes. Along the way are 3 Wainwrights, 1 tarn and 1 pub
YHA hopping in The Lake District - YHA Patterdale to YHA Keswick
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 8 Wainwrights, 2 lakes, 1 tarn and 1 pub
Silver Point from Patterdale
A lovely circular walk from Patterdale going to Silver Point. Gorgeous views on Ullswater lake and the surrounding summits. Dog friendly.
Lanty's Tarn

This is a short, low level walk that can fill a couple of hours. Good if you are short on time or if it has been raining most of the day and has cleared up in the late afternoon. Nice views over the lake and interesting scenery.
