Worth the hype? Judge for yourself.
Helvellyn via the Striding Edge is one of those routes that came up EVERY TIME I opened social media.
People of all skill levels were telling epic tales of climbing the third-highest mountain in England via the Striding Edge. The hardest route to Helvellyn's summit.
So naturally, I absolutely had to see what all the fuss is about.
The route I chose was a horseshoe that starts from Red Tarn, a lake, and goes up Striding Edge to Helvellyn's summit and comes down Swirral Edge, another ridge.
As I was making my way along the ridge I overheard people's opinion of the route.
From excitement and joy to fear and dread, I heard it all.
My opinion?
It's worth the hype
