The night you spent camped at the head of High Cup Nick. Myself and my mate passed by and had a short chat with you 2 guys. We remember you said you were making a film. We wild camped a little further round. One of us sleeping in a bivvy bag the other a henry shire tarp tent. We also woke up to that massive bank of fog that was in direct line with the valley. Nice film you guys made enjoyed it. Will have to do the pennine way someday.

I live near the Pennines and my ancestors owned and ran the Old Nags Head in Edale so I was really excited when it popped up at the beginning of the video!! Amazing cinematography 👏

No way! That's really cool. I love Edale and the Old Nags Head!

Thanks for highlighting England's oldest trail to your followers. You should go to the Lake District if you're ever in England again. Truly magical place.

Well done for walking the pennine way, it's a long walk and you have managed to capture this beautiful landscape we call home 🏡

Fabulous. I loved the fact you revisited part of your past before heading off onto the Way. They gave it an almost pilgrim feel to it - you know friendships as well as far out experiences. Good going. Mark

im in process of buying all the kit to start backpacking and this will be my first big goal once i learn all the skills to be safe is to walk this trail

I did it back in the mid 1990's. My abiding memory was all that mud and rain. Alfred Wainwright once wrote of it `"You won't find me on the Pennine Way. Ive had enough of it".

I think it's so cool that you get to do little side trips, like caving and rock climbing, as you hike these trails.

I walked the pennine way when i was 15 years old and had a fantastic time. It took me and my buddies just over 2 weeks. I managed to get lost on the Cheviot but followed a stream down to a place called Wooler and the next day finished off properly at Kirk Yetholm. That was 41 years ago. Would love to do it again someday!

Not even close to the same distance but the Shropshire hills are a fantastic hike! Some of the most beautiful scenery and views in the UK!

just stumbled upon this. REALLY great video. well scripted, researched and the cinematography is outstanding. Really great work.

"I'm basically hiking in the middle of a dense wet cloud." Yep that sums up my experience of the Pennine way so far. But when its dry its also a very beautiful area. Intresting video nice to see the other activities you can do like climbing and caving

Has a young man I walked the Pennine Way, it was hard very hard to walk, but the sense of adventure was fantastic, thank you you gave me back many wonderful memories Grandpa Pete from France 🇫🇷🙏👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Great video man, glad you enjoyed it. It does look rather fabulous and one in my to do list for sure. 👍

Fantastic video, genuinely a great showcase of the British countryside and the Pennine Way. Looks like you had the weather on your side mostly!

Hi there. I live 20 mins from the Peak District park. Its great. Nowhere like it. Gods own country 👍🏻

Thanks for sharing this journey. Most will never have this experience.

Great video of an area of beautiful scenery in the UK. I ran the Pennine Way about 20 years ago for charity, didn’t have time to take it all in. Would love to do it again and take my time this time!

@@joesmith8701 The Pennine Way does fine without Government promo'. Left to the national parks authorities and the folk who live along the way there's a good balance of amenities along the route, and over promotion carries the risk of damage to the trail and it's environment due to an unsustainably higher level of foot traffic inflicted on what is, despite its often rugged appearance, a fragile landscape in terms of its ability to tolerate the erosive effects of a significant increase in traffic. Examples of this are to be found in the Lake District. Whether by wise decision or fortunate happenstance, government is not much involved thankfully. Once government decides its not doing enough, or bows to pressure from anyone who thinks that more government is the answer to their usually imaginary problems, we will be well on the way to having it well and truly screwed by an overload of bureaucracy and regulation which, by the nature of the bureaucratic hive-mind, will extend to every other national trail. We need a lot fewer of the already too many bloated tentacles of government interference, which always brings new burdensome regulation to fk things up, which I have high confidence will happen if things go as you would seem to wish. Best way the government can help is by getting out of the way and staying out of the way.

Really enjoyed the vid mate, can't believe you didn't include the Tan Hill Inn, Britains highest pub but pleased you called football by its correct title as in foot and ball. Thanks for your kind words about England mate. Make sure you get over to the English Wainwrights at some point. Thumbs up defo.

Nice. Thanks for highlighting an area I haven't heard about before. Well done documentary of your trip. Feels more like a travel channel episode vs a KZread video. Great work to you and the team. That's Gimbal in nearly every shot. Great attention to the cinematography throughout. One note on your color grading is to have more contrast in the blacks as everything feels a bit washed out/even. But that could just be taste too. Keep up the great work!

Great vid and respect due for walking the Pennine Way. Not sure how well known Hadrian’s Wall is in the US, but surprised you didn’t include that part of the trail? From your film it looked like you largely enjoyed good weather, which would make a huge difference on a walk like this. Really hope you enjoyed your time in our country and good to see you sampling a few beers. Well done mate!

Excellent Wqy in UK !!!

Shot beautifully, nice little extra bits, but you barely even showed the penne way itself. Maybe you can show some more footage, assuming you didn't just do a few sections for the camera which could explain all the missing sections. After all, high force, goat fell, black hill etc would have been things I'd of defiantly mentioned for your viewers

Sweet. What will be the next place ;)?

@BackpackingTV it's a couple hundred miles across the Highlands in Scotland. The most mountainous and wild part of britain. You can often experience all 4 seasons in a single day, and it's a demanding walk, however, short of walking from Lands end to John O'Groats,( the length of mainland Britain, which I'm hoping to do this year in memory of a family friends young boy has passed away last year) which goes through a lot of britains big trails anyway, I'd say it's the CWT and the south west coast path in the south west of England that are the hardest, well known trails to do here. I see you've been to wales and the Pennines. Scotland is where you get the very best views in Britain in my opinion. I know for sure, you'd appreciate it.

UK is primarily Green land, fields, vales, hills, mountains, streams, rivers etc...England's green and pleasant land...not heard of that saying? Look. London is not England, it is beautiful away from the cities, like in most countries. Rolling farmlands, pastured lands to walk through north to south, East to west, its beautiful and I love it.
