Walking YHA hopping in The Lake District - YHA Ambleside to YHA Patterdale

Association / Club / Walk leader
↔11.21 mi ↗+3,570 ft ↘-3,189 ft ◔8h 15 ▲Difficult
⚑Departure from Lakes (Westmorland and Furness)
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.

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.

The YHA is a great institution and I guess most fell walkers have stayed at a hostel at some time in their lives.
