On the way up to Scafell Pike, this ridge connects Scafell Pike with its lower neighbour Scafell.
The name means a 'great door' or a gateway.

One of the most mysterious Lakeland peaks, with its summit reached by two ridges : Striding Edge on one side, Swirral Edge on the other.

III Blencathra (Sharp Edge) (2848 feet)                                                                        download sample  MP3

One of the hardest ridges to cross on the way to the top of Blencathra, Sharp Edge has to be straddled with a sheer drop on either side.

The 'friendly giant' who looks down over Keswick and over his surrounding 'family' of hills is also the oldest mountain in the Lake District.

The highest mountain in England - from here on a clear day, you can see the Isle of Man.
