Stunning walk, ruined by clowns with a music box blaring. People want to listen to nature, not hip hop . He was told multiple times. Red Tarn is Stunning. Did enjoy it there. Then up through Swirrel Edge. Very busy. Drones up on the summit which isn't allowed, then morons doing handstands against the Trigg point, but apart from the fools, well worth it. 👏

The hike up Helvellyn via Striding Edge is one of my all-time favourites. In terms of difficulty, it's pretty easy going, hit of a slog until hole in the wall but nothing too hard and then it's time for fun on the ridge. There's a side path if you want to back off but if you take your time and watch your footing and always use your toes (on the descending scrambles go down like you're on a ladder!) and hands well, then it's easy and safe enough in good weather.

Did the easier climb from Thirlmere Lake car park but still took 9 hours! Great climb and spectacular views.

Fab walk up from the car park at Wythburn via Dollywaggon Pike and Nethermost Pike. I’m not a fan of exposed edges so glad we avoided Swirral and Striding edge! Good views, glad we saved it for a clear day and went mid week when less people about.

This was a challenge! We went on a busy day so had to park some distance away, which added to the hike, but it was worth it. There are some amazing views on a clear day.
Be mindful of sunburn, it may not feel warm up there, but you will catch the sun.
Also plenty of great places to get a drink or a bite to eat nearby.
If there is no parking don't bother asking the Inn on the Lake, they will not let you use their car park even if you offer to pay.

We walked up from the YHA and it was a very tough walk, although exceptionally beautiful! We are experienced hikers but had brought our dogs on holiday with us. Only once we got to Red Tarn did we realise we couldn't climb the rest of the way we had gone with our dogs as they wouldn't manage it. Instead we walked up Swirral Edge next to Helvellyn which still offered a great view and sense of achievement.
I'd say this walk is not for novices, only do it if you are prepared, and go the long way if you want to take your dog!

In the days leading up to the walk I kept checking the weather forecast as the initial forecast had a high likelihood of rain. Closer to the time there was 25% chance of rain.
We arrived in Glenridding and the main car park was full and overflow car park wasn't open. We found a spot on the main road - in front of Lake Ullswater - to park our cars. From there our walk was in South direction. We took the route via Birkhouse Moor. Some beautiful sights of Lake Ullswater and beyond. It was quite cloudy and windy as we progressed in our ascent to towards Helvellyn. Eventually we reached the ridge, the notorious Striding Edge. The conditions were really wild and visibility was poor. After getting on Striding Edge myself and one other backed out from forging ahead. The gusts of wind were powerful. We took confidence in our decision by observing that other hikers were also reaching this point and heading back down. Anyway the rest of our group continued ahead, reached the summit and descended via Swirral edge. Some of our group also went swimming in the Red Tarn lake. It was at least another 2 hours walk back to where we had parked. Lesson learned was to pack some post-hike meals and a tea flask as this was a very demanding day on our reserves. As we walked back found a complete different climate just a little distance away, so warm, tranquil and blue sky. The views of the rolling hills, quarries and waterfalls were just as mesmerising
The Lakes has some of the most interesting scenery in our country. It was still an awesome day and over 11 miles walking on some difficult paths. Think safety first always - choose what you can do wisely and if it doesn't feel safe for you then its ok to decline the opportunity. On another day I would consider venturing on Striding edge and Helvellyin is a place I feel I have to return to again.

When I read about the walk I thought it was within my capabilities. It was so technical and dangerous and once you start there’s no going back. It was difficult at times to see the route and we went wrong resulting in me slipping on snow and nearly falling off. Managed to get back on track and to the summit but left me traumatised. Please do not do this unless conditions are good - ie no rain or snow. One slip could result in a very serious fall. Views from the top were amazing but unless summer I’d recommend going an one if the safer non ridge routes

I'm not particularly fit these days- although my husband is, and this is something he wanted to do whilst we were away. I have done bigger mountains before (Snowdon and Scafell Pike) but this was challenging. We could see a dusting of snow on the mountain tops, but about 2/3rds of the way up the snow started coming down really heavy, and was up to my knees. We had to abandon the summit a few metres away as visibility was so poor. The weather forecast had predicted showers at the top, but not this.
It was exceptionally peaceful, climbing in adverse conditions did mean that we saw very few people, but I would say maybe, unless you are an expert climber, plan a trip May-September!
We started and finished at Glenridding. There is a pay and display car park that is reasonable (we paid for 5 hours) and the Travellers Rest is a lovely little pub at the base (see separate review). The visiting centre at the car park has a 50p toilet but it accepts contactless payment. In return you do get a clean, well maintained toilet (mens and womens both clean).
I agree with Barbs25 in that the mountain itself is all the better for no toilets or cafes. It's vast open land with plenty of bushes and rocks for shelter if you are really desperate, and it's not so hard that you can't take a small rucksack with water (beer!) and snacks should you so wish. Please just take your rubbish home (my experience was that the mountain was very clean, please keep it that way!)

Hello there! I am ten years old, and I climbed Striding Edge today. I was promised that I could write a review of it so long as I got through the whole walk without complaining. We went there in lovely weather and although I am not normally a fan of long mountain walks, this one changed my mind! There were spectacular views, and we met some very friendly ducks at Red Tarn. If you are hesitant about it then let me tell you that you will only fall off if the weather conditions are terrible or if you are being very stupid and jumping from rock to rock. Overall, it was a very nice walk.

Hi, I am doing this walk via the edges in July. I am reasonably fit but am a bit concerned about the final ascent up to the summit from stridingedge. It looks like a steep wall of rock going off the photos. I don't have that much experience on the fells. Any tips? Thanks

Hello, it does look steep but it’s manageable - we’ve done the full circle several times in various weather conditions and some of them with kids aged between 13-16 and adults from moderately fit to fit and it was absolutely fine. The ascend from the Striding edge looks steeper but it’s actually easier than the descend from the peak on the opposite edge, but in good weather conditions and light to no wind both are perfectly doable. Key is proper hiking footwear with good traction thick sole and ankle support. You can bring poles to steady yourself if you want but you’ll be fine ☺️

You will see (fit) kids walking up from Swirls car park. It’s a stiff climb and you would only want to do it with sensible kids (it would be possible to have a nasty fall from the path near the top), but there is a proper and sensibly wide path and lots of flat space at the top of Helvellyn to picnic and enjoy the view. The route is a walk, not a scramble.

Hi Samantha,
Not sure if you have visited yet, but we took the Swirls car park route, there is a clear path all the way up, would be very hard to get lost. 😊

We are planning to climb with our 3 boys age 8,11 & 13. Just wondering what route people recommend they are good climbers we did Snowden with them in May. We are staying in Pooley Bridge so will be driving so recomendations for where to park as well would be great.Thanks

I climbed this with my 8 and 10 year old who are good climbers and not scared of challenging parts. However I still think they are a bit young to do striding edge from Glenridding.
We drove to Keswick from Pooley Bridge then parked in the Thirlmere car park. Really enjoyed the climb and just felt it was a bit safer than striding edge way at this age.
Free Parking? Being a tight Yorkshireman I don't like to pay for stuff like Parking especially on Common Land.
Does anyone know of any places where you can park for free on the roads around Hellvelyn on either side of it? Are there pull in's along the road where you can park for free?
I've not been for a while but seem to recall that there were unless I am getting mixed up with Scafell Pike.
If there are no places to park for free are there any car parks that will allow you to buy a ticket for two or three days? Or do you have to return to your car each day and buy another ticket because that would really annoy me? It would also annoy me if I am not able to pay by card.

theres a farmers field further down the road that you can park , also some of the paid carparks were actually free due to work being done after the storm last year so you could try those first

We've done several challenging walks with our kids including Snowdon when youngest was 6 and almost got blown off the top when walking back down in 50mph winds!!!! and some hike climbs in the USA this year. Our kids are 12 and 8. They are definitely up for it but I'm concerned about the height and scary
striding edge for my 8 year old daughter. (And myself to be honest) my Hubbie whose seasoned at this kind of stuff is keen for us all to go next may. Any thoughts and tips please?

Hi. I’ve seen people of all ages walk across. All you need to consider is the weather. Wet and slippery is ok but strong winds are a problem. All the way across there are lower paths that take you down below the exposed ridge so it is passable at all times.
Enjoy!
