Hiking
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.
