11th October 2010 - A Glenridding Round

Walk Details

​Distance walked: 10.2 miles

Total ascent: 4297 ft

OS map used: OL5 - The English Lakes, North-eastern area

Time taken: 6.5 hrs

Route description: Glenridding-Greenside Road-The Rake-Glenridding Dodd-Heron Pike-Sheffield Pike-Nick Head-Green Side-Stybarrow Dodd-Sticks Pass-Raise-Whiteside-Helvellyn Lower Man-Helvellyn-Swirral Edge-Catstye Cam-Red Tarn Beck-Glenridding

After setting out from Glenridding I made my way up Greenside Road and up The Rake to my first top of Glenridding Dodd. My walk then took me over the summits of Sheffield Pike, Green Side, Stybarrow Dodd, Raise, Whiteside and Helvellyn Lower Man before finally arriving on Helvellyn. I descended down Swirral Edge and then up to the top of Catstye Cam. I then used the path down Red Tarn Beck and Glennridding Beck to make my way back to Glenridding.
