Whinlatter is a small fell in the north west of the English Lake District, just north of the Whinlatter Pass. It is easily climbed from the top of the Whinlatter Pass, through the Forestry Commission forests. The Whinlatter Visitor's Centre, a popular tourist attraction, is on the south side of the hill. The hill itself is part of a horseshoe around the valley of Aitken Beck.
