Walking from Wales to Cornwall (with a backpack and a tent)

The highs and lows of backpacking Britain. We go from surviving to thriving this week as we begin to truly believe we will finish this mammoth journey. The end feels more in sight as we cross a big milestone - the Severn Bridge, from Wales into England. We manage to replace our broken tent following the storms last week and our spirits lift. We soak up this peaceful way of life; making the most of the small joys in our day like our safe haven in our tent and warm camping food. Thank you for watching and stay tuned for the final episode of the walk coming soon!

    Well done Tom. Loved following you on this journey Tom. You deserve such credit for not giving up when you were tired and feeling down. Also well done to Izzy for joining you and sticking with the walk. Take care both and have a good rest.

    The nice thing about doing a walk like that is not having a vehicle park somewhere for you to worry about, and you can find the most remote places to put your tent. Really enjoyed watching it. Thanks

    Hey, good to see you this neck of the woods Tom. I'm a bit disappointed though - you started at Llangurig and went through the beautiful upper Wye Valley and never mentioned the valley or river once - the Tamar yeah but not the Wye a celebrated river of the UK. You said you were near Hay but it's over 20 miles to Builth from Llangurig then another 12 to Hay. I'm trying to suss out what your route was. Did you pass through Builth or avoid the Wye Valley walk to Hay? Hey, Hay Bluff is a mountain technically - it's 677 meters. Anything above 600 meters is a mountain. So, she walked a mountain. Ah, White Castle - awesome. There's a great pitch nearby. Ye ha! The Wye Valley gets a mention. Well, good going. A new tent and vigor. All the best. Mark

    Good call on moving from the cows, they're too inquisitive and terrifying in large numbers. I've been chased through fields by them before now, and have since made huge detours over ditches and through hedges to avoid them.

    I think I just figured out why all the British hikers I follow on YT have tents with green rain flies. It's camouflage for the stealth camping, right? If you want to engage in "wild" camping, you have to blend in. In the U.S., it may be a better idea to have an eye-watering, brightly colored tent. In case you might want somebody to find you.

    Exactly that. It’s quite hard to get anywhere truly remote in the uk, so would think being rescued is of much less concern than in the states. Whereas being caught trespassing is a much more real threat, haha. Would love to go on a truly wild expedition through America one day
