    Hiking

    Lower Man is a subsidiary top of Helvellyn and is well worth a visit on your hike. The view to Catstye Cam is very dramatic!

    Hiking

    Helvellyn Lower Man is the connoisseurs summit for Helvellyn - you will have solitude here. This is one of the 3000ft (914.4m) summits that Wainwright ignored.
    Lower man is reached up the excellent Browncove crags route from Swirls car park or from Raise to the north. Or you can descend easily north from Helvellyn summit to reach it.
    Lower Man gives superb views of Swirral Edge and into Brown Cove.
    The ongoing ridge to White Side and Raise is very easy. The descent via Browncove crags is straightforward in the summer but care should be exercised in winter.
