Lingmoor Fell (Brown How summit) is a 1,540-foot (469 m) Wainwright Fell in the Lake District National Park. I've hiked it 'up the wall' from the north-west and also from the winding trails to the south-east from Little Langdale. It's a great little fell with really impressive views of the Langdale Pikes and a stunning quintessentially English dry stone wall which runs across its length.

A lovely little Wainwright what it lacks in height, it makes up for with breathtaking scenery.
On a clear day, the views over Wetherlham and the Coniston range; Bowfell, the Langdale Pikes and Crinkle Crags are simply stunning.
The low height makes it perfect to keep for the short winter days or as a day out with the family.
With a start / finish at Elterwater, it is perfect for a stop at the Britannia Inn at the end of the walk.
Lingmoor means Heather Moor - absolutely stunning when the heather is in bloom.
The only downside is that it is an isolate fell. Should you wish to take in multiple Wainwright in the day; you will have to come all the way down to hike all the way up onto other fells.
