  • 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.

    I know you love your adventures on your own and I love watching them but this time round it’s lovely to see you with someone who loves doing these hikes and enjoying them as much as you do! Very sweet video & I can’t wait for the next one ❤

    We travelled about 130 miles to do Helvellyn and all we saw was fog and more fog.
    Never the less it was a lovely weekend.. We'll try again in 2023

    • @GracesAdventures
      @GracesAdventures  Год назад

      Ah that’s a shame - it was the same on my first hike of it and it’s a 5hr drive for me too. Good luck for 2023!

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

    • @GracesAdventures
      @GracesAdventures  Год назад

      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 😊

    • @markfawkes6943

      @@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!

    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.

    • @GracesAdventures
      @GracesAdventures  Год назад

      Thanks Peter! I do have a drone which I use in some videos but it was too windy on this day sadly!

    Amazing video Grace - really enjoyed watching this route ❤Hoping to do Helvellyn in the new year so definitely going to take your advice and start early, looks crazy busy at the summit for the time of year!

      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

    Can you get to the summit without going up one of the tricky edges? Is there a safer way for nervous nellies x

    • @MBC1955
      @MBC1955 Год назад

      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.

    • @GracesAdventures
      @GracesAdventures  Год назад

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

  • @niclrig

    Really enjoyed this one. Love the clear route description and the nice balance between narration scenes and music alone scenes allowing the viewer to fully immerse in the views. Looking forward to your next one ⛰️

    I didn't realise there were so few trees up these hills.

    • @GracesAdventures
      @GracesAdventures  Год назад

      Not many trees on UK mountains! Was lovely seeing tree covered canopies in the smoky mountains.

    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 🏔️

    • @GracesAdventures

      Sometimes it’s not meant to be! We were really lucky with the conditions on the day we did it and set off at 6am to avoid crowds 😊 hope you get up there soon!
