| Catstye Cam is the 10th highest peak in the Lake District and connected to Helvellyn by a rocky ridge known as Swirral Edge. The best route of ascent (other than swirral edge) is via its north western ridge, although we cannot confirm this yet! It has a very distinctive pyramid shape making it easy to identify from distant fells. | ||
