About the event

Helvellyn via Striding Edge
There are many fine ways to climb Helvellyn but an ascent via Striding Edge has to be considered the most spectacular of all. This is a classic grade 1 scramble which will require four points of contact on parts of the ridge. We will also be descending via Swirral edge, which is another grade 1 scramble.

It should take us approximately 5-6 hours to complete, depending on the groups pace. The total distance is approximately 8 miles with close to 3,000ft of ascent. The ascent along Striding Edge is thrilling, with exhilarating sections that will get your heart racing. But don't worry; our guides are there to support you through the more challenging parts, making it a manageable adventure for hikers of varying experience levels.

Helvellyn via Striding edge is a mountain route with a mix of rocky terrain, grassy paths and steep ascents/descents - There are also two grade 1 ridges to scramble which do require a head for heights. You should be comfortable walking up to 10 miles and have a reasonably good fitness level. If you have any medical conditions, please let me know beforehand
