We had a blast hiking Helvellyn, my 2nd time up there and was fun to try a different route and take Swirral Edge first but I think I prefer the other way around. We parked in the main big carpark in Glenridding.

    • You’d be better getting some proper advice @She Freely Roams from someone experienced, Grace’s videography is ok, but she’s not qualified to be giving any advice whatsoever when it comes to this subject

  • Well done Grace & Louie ⛰️..I live in the Lake District & have been up since 3am preparing to get out onto the mountains for daybreak but the forecast is for extensive low laying blanket fog so that's today's adventure abandoned,safety is paramount if not just for myself but for that of others if anything untoward was to happen & I needed rescued..never seen Helvellyn so quiet as on your video 🤗..look forward to your next adventure 🏔️

  • Love the video guys! Which of the two scrambles (swirral edge and striding edge) would you say is the easiest to get DOWN?

    @markfawkes6943@markfawkes6943 Жыл бұрын

    • They both have tricky parts so doesn’t make too much difference but and even if you start on striding edge you have a down scramble at the end to then ascend up to the summit! So both the same really in my opinion 😊

      @GracesAdventures@GracesAdventures Жыл бұрын

    • @@GracesAdventures Thank you, Grace, for some great tips. I think I'll be fine over the actual edge, I'm ok with the bad step (or chimney, is this the same thing?!) and the scramble up to the summit. It's getting back down that scramble that is playing on my mind for some bizarre reason! But it'll be fun - I'll keep watching great content like yours and it'll work out OK!

    @Rosietheginger@Rosietheginger Жыл бұрын

    • Plenty. You can follow the ridge from the north or south, or any of the western approaches are ultra-safe but be warned, they're ultra-dull too.

    • Yes there are a number of routes up where you can avoid the ridges, check out All Trails or OutdoorActive 😊

  • Good on you Grace, another good video. You chose a nice clear day. Striding edge is spectacular from that direction. Grace I think you'd do well with a mini drone, to capture your photography (?) because you have a real talent for editing. Just a thought. Stay safe in the hills.
