DAY HIKE | CATBELLS | LAKE DISTRICT | EASY ROUTE
Join me and my friend Debbie as we complete a four-mile circular hike up to the top of Catbells, overlooking Derwent Water, Keswick and the glorious mountain range.
For more information about the route see the link below:
www.keswick.org/what-to-do/walking-routes/catbellswalkingroute
An ideal walk for those who are new to hiking or looking for a route that will take no more than half a day to complete. There are laybys dotted around the base of Catbells but do not park on the opposite side of double yellow lines, you will get a ticket!

Steph and I revisited the spot we were going to camp at about six weeks prior, this time it was a success. Lovely blue skies and tee shirt weather on the first day, a bit grey and wet the following day. Also went for a good hike after the camp. No drama, just wild camping! Filmed mid-April 2024.

IT BEGAN SO WELL | CYCLING GRAND UNION CANAL | #biking #cycling #outdoors #northamptonshire

Sometimes things don't go to plan, which seems to be the 'thing' at the moment. Thankfully, I always have a plan B and C up my sleeve. On this vlog, I take my new bike (second-hand) out for a ride along the Grand Union Canal in Northamptonshire. Beginning at Duston Mill Meadows and along to Bugbrooke, following the waterways and quiet country lanes. Made it safely to Bugbrooke and then... POP.....

Steph and I ventured up Kinder Scout in early March 2024. A moderate to challenging day hike including a grade one scramble. The scramble was located towards the top section of Grindsbrook Clough. We hiked along the plateau towards the Woolpacks, Pym Chair and Kinder Low. We descended via Jabob's Ladder and returned to our start point at Edale village. This was a circular route of approx 9 mile...
WILD CAMPING? NOPE! TIME TO BAIL, NOT A FAIL! TYPICAL BRITISH WEATHER!
zhlédnutí 1,4KPřed 4 měsíci
This was NOT filmed in a storm or in conditions that would warrant a weather warning. Typical British weather! It was wet and windy, and the ground wasn't suitable for pitching a tent. It was fine for hiking but not camping. Embracing the elements isn't for everyone, I understand that. I always encourage others to take responsibility for their own personal safety based on their experience and c...

    Brilliant mini series. You've inspired me to do this trail, going for it in a couple of week! Thank you.

    • @ramblingracheltrailtales
      @ramblingracheltrailtales Před dnem

      You’ll love it. When you complete the stretch between Keld and Reeth, I recommend taking the high route and camping at the top of Gunnerside Gill ravine in the old mining ruins.

  • @jeremymanning2132

    Are you camping on IOW? Or have you become normal? 😅😅

      Ha! Not camping this time. My partner doesn’t do camping, in the comfort of a static caravan. Have a great week x

    Hi Rachel thanks for the video. Just wondering if you're still using your Lanshan now 2 years on from the video, and if so how well is it holding up? Cheers

    • @ramblingracheltrailtales
      @ramblingracheltrailtales Před 25 dny

      Hi Rory, I made the mistake of selling and regret it now. I now have a couple of single pole trekking tents, which are very good. But the Lanshan 2 was so light and incredibly spacious in comparison. It’s a cracking tent for the money.

Those are some dramatic skies, lovely bit of clag 😂 we love b roll we call it bacon butties 🤷🏻‍♀️🤣 wow it was a tad breezy up there. Ooo bubbles 🫧 great one to do for a first wainwright 👍

    Obviously Catbells was named for the little bell you put on your cat's collar so you can find them hiding in the laundry basket.

    Yay the Lake District 😃 I only went up Cat Bells once as I recall, which would have been a very long time ago. What a lovely walk you had there Rachel. Hope Debbie enjoyed her first Wainwright 👍

  • @endurance-adventures
    @endurance-adventures Před měsícem

    Love Catbells, glad you got a view before the clag rolled in! 😊

  • @AlanMETALMAN
    @AlanMETALMAN Před měsícem

    You actually too the hard route - the way you went down is the one I always recommend to people to go up and down if they want an easy way up without any scrambling. You both made light work of it mind and it sounded dam windy on the summit, which was shame, as was the rain and clag coming it but good to see none of that stopped you, cheers Alan

    • @ramblingracheltrailtales
      @ramblingracheltrailtales Před 26 dny

      I have definitely been puffing and panting and needed to rest! It may be a small fell, but it packs a punch. Thanks Alan.

    Nice on Rachel. Does Debbie know there are 213 more to do?

    • @ramblingracheltrailtales
      @ramblingracheltrailtales Před 26 dny

      We did Scafell Pike the following day but didn't vlog that due to various reasons. So that makes about 212 left for her! I've already done a few up there.

  • @jeremymanning2132

    Another good'n 🙏🏼 The first time I saw an honesty box, shortly after I first started hiking, I couldn't believe it. I'm from Central London and it was a totally alien concept to me 😆😆 I had to wait for someone else to walk past so i could ask them if I had understood the "make a donation" part correctly, I felt like i was stealing something 😂😂. Absolutely love it whenever i see them now, 🫶🏻

    • @ramblingracheltrailtales

    Funny name but still a real nice walk and in good weather too, a rarity this year for sure! I hope those cows were behind a fence and I love a cheese and onion sarnie! Funny after all that rain and then a bit of sun how all the vegetation had all of a sudden gone wild but loved the buttercups. No wonder you were tired, especially with the additional 2 miles and a cheeky pink and meal at the Carpenters Arms would not have helped either lol, cheers Alan

    • @ramblingracheltrailtales
      @ramblingracheltrailtales Před měsícem

      The cows were well behaved. More interested in eating grass, than us ramblers. The pub was a welcomed break. We wouldn’t normally stay in a pub for that long during a walk but with the longer days, we treated ourselves x
