Helvelyn via Striding Edge

Striding Edge is probably the best known ridge walk and grade 1 scramble in the Lake District. On this chilly day in April, I tackled it with the intention of trying out my new drone, and pretty pleased with the results!

As you can see, there was still some snow on the tops which made the final scramble up to Helvelyn great fun. The video might look professional but nothing to do with my camera skills - I'd found the "Circle Quick-Shot" mode - just launched it to about 20m away, clicked the button and the drone did the rest!

Helveylyn via Striding Edge is a classic Lakes day out. If you'd like a guided day out with me, please get in touch!
