Striding Edge, Helvellyn
Amongst fell walkers, the famous Striding
Edge is one of England’s best known ridge walks – a
300 yard long edge that climbs up to the summit of Helvellyn
(3116ft/949m). Although from a distance, the ridge gives the
impression that you have to walk along a knives edge, it is
not as dangerous as it looks, except in high winds or icy conditions
when it definitely should be avoided.
