- In today's video I am in the Lake District. Today's walk is up the 3rd highest mountain in the Lake District - Helvellyn. I will be taking on the infamous striding edge. A route I have planned to take for many years but haven't got around to it - until now!

Mad respect to you for having the balls to adventure travel the way that you do!
Thanks, that's what life's all about!
It’s certainly the most dramatic in the Lakes, well done!
Yeah, the views looking back over striding edge are incredible, thanks!
My goodness! My stomach was in knots until you got back on a flatish path. Great shots of the steep sides and surrounding views. Must be a great feeling to be able to say you've done striding edge. Well done ! That was an epic video, thanks 👍
Thank you, it was great fun! Next on my list is Blencathra via Sharp Edge.
@@uptosummit_ I'll look forward to it. Please be careful!
Never did it - such a woos I was.
That's unfortunate, I think Blencathra via Sharp Edge is next for me!
Took my mum up there a couple weeks back, was our first time. Amazing place in the lakes. 👌 Thanks for the video/s! 👍👍
It's a beautiful location, glad you enjoyed the video!
Did it on Tuesday. I shit myself a few times I'll admit. The Chimney or bad step was a bit sketchy for sure.
The last climb down off the end is definitely the hardest part. Well done on completing it!
Ive started me youtube now id love to tackle this but i bring me dog everywhere with me it doesnt seem dawg friendly 😢
Start off on small mountains and work your way up to it. Always know your limits and turn around if it's unsafe, good luck!
@uptosummit_ oh ill clamber up no problem, i just want to bring me pooch with me but im not sure terrain like that would be practical for her :(
