Slate Fell is a small hill to the east of Cockermouth in Cumbria on the very edge of the Lake District National Park. The top of the hill offers wonderful views across the north west Lake District Wainwright fells. It's popular with dog walkers and those wanting to get a bit of fresh air without walking far out of town.

Slate Fell, due east of Cockermouth is a good vantage point for the higher hills about. It is easily reached from the public footpath just north of the summit and a round from Cockermouth including Slate Fell makes for a nice short walk.
