Customer reviews

What customers say about their prints

  • Excellent service

    The artwork I wanted was a little different to the format that Route Into Art usually undertake but they expertly took my initial concept and turned it into something that I was very happy with. Andrew's quick turnaround of my ideas and attention to detail and creative suggestions resulted in something that I was delighted with. Helping to turn all the training and event effort into a lovely memento. Thank you

    As an elderly person, I struggled a bit with the( perfectly simple) instructions. They took over the production of my print and it arrived perfectly within a couple of days. My son was delighted with this print as it was a gift to him for successfully completing the West Highland Way Race. I would not hesitate to use this excellent company again.

About the Helvellyn print

The classic way up Helvellyn starts in Glenridding, by Ullswater, and climbs to the Hole-in-the-Wall above Patterdale. From there the route crosses Striding Edge, a narrow rocky ridge above Red Tarn, then scrambles up the last rocks to the summit plateau, at 950 m.

The way down is by Swirral Edge, the second ridge round Red Tarn, then back down the valley to Glenridding. The loop is about 12.4 km, with about 820 m of climbing. Add the date of your walk, and the print keeps your own day on the edges.
