IS IT FOR ME?

FITNESS A good level of hill fitness is needed. TERRAIN A mix of well-defined paths, open hillside and rocky scrambling. Striding Edge is highly exposed and intimidating for novice scramblers. NAVIGATION Good nav skills are required to cross the high-level sections as there are no clear paths at times. Care is needed to find the descent route from Fairfield in poor vis, so ability to use a compass is essential.
