	Helvellyn Striding Edge Swirral Edge Patterdale (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Striding Edge is the most famous of the Lakeland 'look no hands' edges.
		Swirral Edge is often underestimated being so close to Striding Edge, but it provides a descent that should be taken with care, especially in winter, where the use of crampon's and ice axes are essential.
		Be prepared for a scramble towards the end of Striding Edge (the Chimney), but also be prepared for great views and a wonderful walk.

		Striding Edge is probably the most famous ridge in the whole Lake District.
		Normally Striding Edge is a place to stay and dawdle along at a slow pace that lets you marvel at the surroundings, taking your time to enjoy the sense of exposure below you, and how lucky you are to be here, and not elsewhere on a Sunday afternoon.
		Making my way down Swirral Edge was very difficult for me, the other three totally enjoyed the experience, but I was reminded of a story told by my parents about a friend of theirs who slipped on ice and fell to their death on Helvellyn.

	Helvellyn to Sheffield Pike - Walk
		Striding Edge is dangerous in snow and should be avoided by the walker in such conditions no matter how well equipped - leave it to the ice-climbers.
		Striding Edge takes quite a lot of (worthwhile) effort and a well-built shelter near the summit provides protection for your well-earned rest whichever way the wind blows.
		The best views of Ullswater are from the northern edge of the summit so keep to this side, visiting the various crests on the way to find them (photo).

	Helvellyn - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The knife-edge Striding Edge provides one of the best-known scrambles in lakeland, while the Swirral Edge ridge leads to the conical summit of Catstye Cam.
		The western slopes are relatively shallow, and partially forested, with many gills leading down to the Thirlmere valley.

	Helvellyn Striding Edge - picture and print of Helvellyn Striding Edge
		For many, the crossing of Striding Edge and Swirral Edge - with a visit to the summit of Helvellyn en route - is their first and sometimes only encounter with the joys and thrills of rock scrambling on one of Britain's finest mountains.
		Consequently the majority of pictures taken of Striding Edge Helvellyn are either from along the ridge looking towards the main bulk of the mountain, or from Helvellyn summit itself.
		En route, I discovered that, at one very precise spot, the ridge of Striding Edge could be seen in perfect profile, its true character majestically revealed rising up steeply from the great hollows of Grisedale and Nethermost Cove.

	Cumbria - The Lake District: Helvellyn via Striding Edge and Swirral Edge
		Doing the round of Striding Edge and Swirral Edge is one of the Lake District's most famous routes and for very good reason.
		Locating the correct start of Swirral Edge is critical; the ground on either side is very steep and in parts loose.
		The initial section of Swirral Edge (NE) is quite steep but soon eases and leads down to a narrow col from which point the path descends to Red Tarn (Catstye Cam is a short distance E along the ridge from the col - well worth the short detour).

		You now follow the same path all the way to Striding Edge, with an initial relentless climb of some 1,500 ft/450 m.
		Although care must be taken negotiating the ridge, it is really not as bad as its daunting reputation suggests (except in poor weather), and never feels as exposed as Sharp Edge on Blencathra.
		Trail Notes: Striding Edge is an exciting, narrow, rocky ridge with steep drops to either side.

		We walked up from Glenridding to Lanty Tarn, and from there, we took the old path up the side of Birkhouse Moor to the Hole In the Wall, which is pleasant enough until the final trudge up to the hole.
		We navigated to the start of Swirral Edge, just in time to see the ridge through a break in the cloud.
		The wind was still very strong, but westerly, so as soon as we dropped from the summit down onto the ridge, the wind dropped right away.

		The Edge's serrated top drops dramatically off either side; challenging but dangerous only in winter, when gales from the Irish Sea coat them gray with ice.
		From here I couldn't see the summit or Striding Edge, and my mind began to complain that this hill was too steep for too long.
		Striding Edge angled up its left flank, jagged and raw.

		Ahead there is a huge green amphitheatre leading up to Helvellyn with two wings formed by Striding Edge on the left and Swirral Edge on the right.

		The stream is easily crossed and the further side of the valley climbed to the stone wall on Striding Edge.

		The last part of the ascent from Striding Edge to the top of Helvellyn looks quite difficult but if taken slowly does not prove to be as difficult as seems.
		The way down is to follow Swirral Edge a small detour can be made up Catstycam then down to the outflow of Red Tarn.

	Ramblers walking forums - helvelyn...............???? which way
		It is a few years ago but I have been over Swirral Edge and then returned by Striding Edge with 2 of my own children (girl and boy) when they were 13 and 12.
		I'm sure that they could both manage Striding Edge, but I'd rather wait till they are a little older for that route (though the 8 year old would love all that rock).
		It does also make reference to 'easiest' too, but I don't see in any of the replies that suggest either Swirral Edge or Striding Edge are referred to as 'easy'.

	A Lake District Walk - Blencathra and Sharp Edge
		I had done Striding Edge but the books had always painted Sharp Edge as more precarious and I wasn't going to do it until I was resolved to do so.
		The use of your hands and feet is necessary from here until you complete the edge and reach the Blencathra plateau but although it is a tiring scramble it is not a precarious one.
		Sharp Edge, coupled with the steep descent of Heron Crag to Rydal the previous day had left me with one legacy though.

		There are numerous routes up Helvellyn from the A591 Thirlmere side but if you want to do Striding Edge, the best start point is the A592 near Ullswater.
		The route along striding edge has few technical difficulties hardly warranting a grade 1 scramble, what it does have apart from stunning scenery is enormous exposure.
		Descent for those doing Striding Edge is usually by Swirral Edge.

	A Lake District Walk - Helvellyn and Striding Edge
		This would make Striding Edge easier as you can see what you are letting yourself in for whereas from Glenridding you don't know what you face on the edge until you are faced with it.
		I reassured them that the cloud was lifting and then we all had a drinks break waiting for Striding Edge to appear out of the cloud.
		So, after a pause and with unbelievable clear blue skies considering what we had been in half an hour before, we made our way off Helvellyn and onto Striding Edge.The walk along Striding Edge, the easy way from high point to low point but a crossing all the same was fun all the way.

	Lake District - Striding Edge, 25th May 1984 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Striding Edge is technically an easy scramble but for many hikers and hillwalkers - myself included - it represents the limit of acceptable difficulty in terms of walking routes.
		A narrow and rocky arete between Birkhouse Moor and Helvellyn proper, some half a mile in length, it features steep slopes (in excess of sixty degrees) each side, dropping to Nethermost Cove to the south and Red Tarn to the north.
		Red Tarn is on the left and we have just tackled the twelve-foot chimney down from the western end of the Edge, followed by the unpleasantly steep pull up to Helvellyn's summit dome.

		Not Englands heighest peak, but not far behind at 950meters tall, Helvellyn (on a good day) can give spectacular views, while the scramble across striding edge is a bit more hairy for those who want a little something extra.
		Not to be attempted in very high winds or bad weather though, as the way is steep, the rocks slippy when wet, and nothing but a very long fall either side of the ridge.

		The added challenges of Striding Edge and, to a lesser extent, Swirrel Edge, make it a walk that demands respect.
		Some sections are more of a clamber than a walk and Striding Edge should not be attempted in high winds, when it can be quite a scary place to be.
		Alternative directions are included for those who prefer to use Swirrel Edge both ways.

	Ramblers walking forums - Striding Edge
		In Summer the only danger is dying of boredom whilst you wait for the crowds to pass on the narrow parts, in Winter, with a nice coating of ice on the path, Striding Edge changes character completely and becomes a killer for the inexperienced or unwary.
		If you really want to enjoy Striding Edge in October then climb it mid-week and set off around dawn when the air is fresh and the mist hasn't cleared in the valley.
		I've tried it a couple of times with company but had to turn back so my advice to your friend would be don't try it, go around to grisedale and go up from there.
