Other walks in the area
Langdale Fell
Famous walk passing by Pavey Ark, Harrison Stickle, Pike of Stickle and the well-known scrambling Jack's Rake.
⚠️Do not use Jack's rake path (between (2) and (3)) if you are not a confident scrambler. This is an open scramble that can be very dangerous. Please do not attempt it in wet conditions.
Three of the Langdale peaks
This Langdale walk includes two of the well know Langdale Pikes - Harrison Stickle and Pike o'Stickle - and continues to visit the less walked Rosset Pike so you can avoid the crowds.
YHA Hopping in the Lake District - Dungeon Ghyll to YHA Langdale
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 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 6 Wainwrights, 3 tarns,1 lake and 2 pubs.
YHA Hopping in the Lake District - Dungeon Ghyll to YHA Grasmere
Here's a collection of routes starting or finishing at a YHA in The Lakes. Along the way are 6 Wainwrights, 3 tarns,1 lake and 1 pub. This is a tough route but take time to enjoy the scenery around you and be careful on the high ground. Look around and take in the beauty that is The Lake District.
Langdale Pikes
A hike to four summits discovering a wide range of this part of the Nation Park Lake District. The Park Lake District trails aren't waymarked. There are very few signs but the pathway is straightforward as there aren't many crossings. It is, however, preferable not to leave the trail, especially in foggy weather.
Lingmoor low level circular
A good circular walk around Lingmoor fell with plenty of interest which is a great choice if the higher fells are shrouded in cloud.
The walk takes in the Langdale and Little Langdale Valleys, explores a disused slate quarry and passes a working slate quarry. The walking and route finding are easy, the views are good and there are places on the way to buy refreshments. As a circular walk it can be started from a variety of places along the route.
Crinkle Crags
Crinkle Crags summits lie facing the summits of Langdale Fell separated by Mickleden Beck River valley.
Bowfell Circular
The main objective of this walk is the wonderful lake District mountain Bowfell. Once the summit is reached some less familiar territory is included in the route before the return leg to the starting point point is along the Mickelden Valley.
