Helvellyn 950m |
|||
 |
|||
Helvellyn, at 950 metres (3,117 feet) above sea-level, is the 3rd highest peak in England. |
|||
Topography The peak of Helvellyn is the highest on the north-south ridge situated between the Thirlmere valley to the west, and Patterdale/Ullswater to the east. This ridge continues north over Helvellyn Lower Man, White Side, Raise, Stybarrow Dodd and Great Dodd, and south leads to Dollywaggon Pike and Seat Sandal and eventually drops down to Grisedale Tarn. Our 3000' Challenge events approach Helvellyn summit either from the Thirlmere valley side or from the North depending or which variation of the challenge you are undertaking. The western slopes are relatively shallow, and partially forested, with many ghylls leading down to the Thirlmere valley. |
