One of the most popular mountains in the Lake District, even the name seems to draw people to Helvellyn. However it's justifiably a favourite and for those comfortable with exposure, the ascent up and along Striding Edge is probably the finest and best known ridge walk in England. Helvellyn is also usually the first to be blessed with snow and the last to lose it - heavy cornices build up on the Eastern face and can last until summer. Further east around Haweswater, famous for the drowned village of Mardale, things get quieter and less well trodden, but the scenery is no less attractive and and equally dramatic in places.
