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, 4 tarns and 1 pub.

A simple, isolated church with superb views over the Lyth valley to the high fells of Lakeland.

An extended walk along a glorious limestone edge with superb views and fantastic wildlife.

A wood renowned for its wild daffodils and rare butterflies, and a famous house and garden.

A super walk with two contrasting parts. The first is the undulating ridge from Whinfell Beacon to Ashtead Fell, and the second is the delightful Borrowdale valley. It can be walked in either direction, and whilst described here from the parking on the East side of the valley, it can also be started from the parking on the West side.
