outdoors – Walks With Olly

Planning for Snowdonia – March ’23

In a few weeks’ time, I’ll be heading north to Snowdonia for a few days, just as I did in this same month last year. In this post, I’m going to share some of the walks I’m looking to embark upon. Each of which will be new to me.

Crossing St. Sunday Crag

Thursday 15th September 2022

Striding Edge had been crossed and Helvellyn was now in the bag. After lunch, I would continue my circular journey heading back towards Glenridding.

Helvellyn via. Striding Edge

Thursday 15th September 2022

In another two-part write up, I’ll share my experience of the one walk I was most looking forward to in this week away – climbing Helvellyn via. the scramble of Striding Edge.

My morning began in the town of Glenridding, to the east of the mountains.

Langdale Pikes (Part 2)

Wednesday 14th September 2022

Continuing on from Part 1, I had reached the plateau of the Langdale Pikes and stopped for lunch. Now, I must walk on towards the true Harrison Stickle before the rest of my walk.
