Nice alternative to the other walks up to Helvellyn. Was there on a beautiful sunny day in June and didn't meet anyone else!

Hiking

This ascent to Grisedale Tarn or decent into the valley is a soothing walk after the rain as the stream flow is in full force showing off some beautiful cascades and waterfalls. On a hot day there are many dipping pools to be found.

It's a bit of a slog but some fantastic water falls so plenty places to stop and admire the views.
