The first day of my two week long journey across the UK!
I started at St Bees and walked along the coast of the Irish sea before heading Eastbound towards my stop for the night.
I encountered plenty of funny animals, nice locals (the lovely RNLI volunteers offered me snacks for my journey after I stopped there to fill up my water bottles!) and other hikers I met along the way.

Thank you to everyone watching, I appreciate each and every one of you!

Also, my brother and I hiked Hadrian’s Wall to raise money for Mind, we got 55 miles in before we were forced to cut it short due to food poisoning from The Twice Brewed Inn on our third night! We're better now, and will continue the walk soon, so if you’d like to donate and support Mind I’ll add the link below! It’d mean so much, and for a good cause!

Yet another lovely video, as a 63 year old ex service man who is no longer able to hike due to various injuries, I love to watch your travels, they bring back so many happy memories of walks gone by .
I’m so, so glad, thank you for your comment. It means the world that I can do that for you and others!
What a stunning video 😊
Thank you! 😊
It's little surprise these isles have created such classic stories and worlds that have stood the test of time. When youre walking through the Shire or Narnia, theres nothing more inspiring.
I completely agree, the UK has so many truly stunning landscapes steeped in history. :)
Gorgeous video, the way it is narrated deserves all the praise. I enjoyed every second my friend! 👏👏
Thank you so much ♥️
Wonderful video and now cant wait for the next one. Excellent footage and music, well done 👍
Hey. Thank you for another brilliant video. That encourages more people to get out hike beautiful trails.
Thank you very much, and I hope so, that’s my aim 😁
Thank you so much
Hi Chris, thank you for the Super! So lovely of you, glad you enjoyed the video 😁
Lovely video. I really like your style, getting to see a bit more than the usual ‘just the highlights’ you often get elsewhere on CZcams. Nice one.
Thank you that means so much! I know mine aren’t as concise as some, but I hope it’ll please the niche that enjoy the longer, slower paced videos I make 😁
Absolutely brilliant, I loved every minute! I can understand you feeling a bit shy when people are around. Great filming and narration, so relaxing to watch. Thankyou!
Thank you so much!
Hi. You put out such relaxing videos, it's a pleasure watching. The Airbnb was an excellent find. The C2C is on my list to do, so I will be watching the full series. Thankyou.
Aw thank you! That's so kind. And I was definitely lucky with that. I hope you enjoy the following videos!
Enjoy your walk , it's tremendously therapeutic apart from the boring bits after Richmond and before glaisdale. 👍
Hi, thank you, it was an incredible journey. And exactly, the section between Reeth & Danby Wiske was a little dire. Ingleby was gorgeous, though the stretch after Ingleby from Lordstones to Glaisdale was a bit naff too, the rest of the sections between were gorgeous 😍
@@Orenjen 😂🥾 well done to you, respect earned.
Wonderful to see you again, 💚 you’ve got me.
Aw thank you!
Cracking video
Thank you ☺️
beautiful video
Thank you!☺️
Excellently done! Just found your channel and loved the first video!
Welcome! I’m glad you loved it!😁
I love your easygoing style. Very enjoyable.Thanks for taking us along
Aw thank you that’s so lovely ☺️ happy you enjoyed it
Beautiful photography. Its great that you devote a whole video to each stage/day of the hike.
Thank you happy to hear it! Yeah I’m putting out 14 videos for each day, and after I’ll be releasing a longform video of all the days in one… I’m expecting it to be 7+ hours long 😬 this is for a couple reasons, as different people prefer different forms of media; some prefer a looong video all in one, and others prefer to watch day by day in different videos.
Also, if I were to just release the one long video, it’d take me that long to edit & put it together my channel would be radio silent for months 😂
This was so beautifully shot, thank you for taking the time to film the details that so many others ignore, I just loved watching this and will watch your adventure until you reach Robin Hood's bay.
Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoy the detail, I try to capture as much of the trail as possible 😁
You do a great job of it for us all@@Orenjen
What a glorious video. So relaxing to watch. I loved the slow pace. The beautiful greenness of everything was stunning. Can’t wait for the rest of the series. Walked the C2C in 2013 - this has made me very keen to do it again.
Oh wow thank you for the lovely comment! Happy you enjoyed the video, and that it’s made you want to hike it again! Congrats on completing it in 2013, it’s not an easy feat at all. I hope you enjoy the upcoming ones just as much!😁
Amazing video, it felt like heaven that day, what a day to be alive, thanks so much.
It really did, it was a perfect day to be out & about, especially by the coast. Thank you
Hi Jennifer, I’ve watched loads of other videos of the C2C and this is the best so far, looked beautiful and some nice weather to start your journey well. Looking forward to the next instalment already. Cheers Glyn.
Hi Glyn, thank you so much, that’s such an honour! So happy you liked the video, and I hope you enjoy the rest to come 😁
This came up as a suggested video for me and glad I clicked and watched. Made my stressful work day a whole lot calmer s thank you! Looking forward to the rest of the journey.
Aw, I'm so glad! Welcome! I hope you enjoy the rest of it just as much :D
Just a new subscriber but just want to say how much I've enjoyed this video,this is my 'home patch' & you showcased our area magnificently..thankyou 😁
Oh wow thank you! I’m so glad, happy you enjoyed it 😁
Enjoyed this one, looking forward to watching the next instalment. Planning my own C2C next year 👍
Glad you liked it, and I hope this helps with your own C2C journey! You’re going to love it, even the tough bits ☺️
the airbnb looked fantastic, i wish i could live there full time
It was lovely 😁
Do as many of these trips as you can. I wish I’d done many more as a kidult. If Tracey wants to adopt me I like past and wine too 🤣. Happy hiking 🥾
Oh for sure I have plenty planned, might as well do them while I’m able to! Haha she was a lovely host 😁
Fantastic video...brought back so many memories....we travelled from our home in Australia to do the C2C last year...most challenging and satisfying thing Ive ever done can understand your emotions.....well done and thankyou. Look forward to watching the rest of your videos
Oh wow, you came a long way for it! I met some Australians on the C2C and they were lovely. And thank you, it definitely is more challenging than people give it credit for, but equally as spectacular 😁
Wot a truely remarkable vlog, carry on, u won't go wrong, all the best
Thank you ☺️♥️
Thank you so much!
I’ve just completed the Cumbria way this year & got this booked in & planned for this year, will also be filming for my channel!
Amazing part 1, thanks again!
Oh that’s wonderful, and I’m glad you enjoyed the video! Congrats on completing the Cumbria Way, I hiked it in April 2021 and I’m planning on completing it for a second time next year 😁
Best of luck with your C2C journey, I’m sure it’ll be absolutely amazing. And I hope my upcoming C2C videos will help you get a feel for the trail! ☺️
Good one.
So greeeen I'm hoping to do this next year, I hope I get similar weather ❤
I did this at the end of May into June, the best time in my opinion! Great weather and usually not too hot (but of course a heatwave hit during mine)
@Orenjen I got very lucky with my multidayers this year to be fair the skye trail was mostly sun as was the Llyn Peninsula and of course my hike in La Palma was super hot and sunny! C2C has been on the list a while as has cape wrath it's just getting that much time off all at once...why must we work 😅
First time watching you so Good Luck. I have completed this Hike twice, once in each directions, just as I did the Pennine Way. I know the route and enjoyed my hikes each time and I hope you do too. My backpack was slightly heavier than yours at 25kg, but I still enjoyed every step of the way. Happy Hiking. Being retired now for 6 months and just waiting a month or two before I am off again on another LD Hike, not sure how many I have left in me, but I will keep hiking while I can. Previous hikes include the Pennine Way South to North and North to South, C2C West to East and East to West, North Norfolk Coast Path (Hunstanton to Lowestoft), Lands End to John OGroats, then John OGroats to Lands End, and in 2000 I completed the Coastal Walk/Tour of Great Brittian. Now retired but I still enjoy watching others to refresh my memory of Hikes I have completed. Tony in Essex.
Wow that’s so impressive! We’ll down on your achievements, that’s amazing to have so many trails completed! And 25kg omg… that’s mental! Again, super impressive. Thank you for watching & commenting, I hope you enjoy the videos!
@@Orenjen All I can say about the weight of my pack would be 4 months previous to starting to Hike the UK Long Distance Trails I was in the Army for a few years and the Army Packs weigh 30 to 35kg and where expected to cover 30km per day, so in hindsight my 25kg pbackpack was lighter that I was used to. Tony in Essex
Great video - walked the route Sept 2022 - company organised - hotel to hotel. Planning on walking E to W in the summer (solo) - I only live 5 miles from St Bees, so I can walk home after I finish! Feeling inspired now to get on the train to St Bees and then walk back to Whitehaven over the cliff path. Looking forward to watching the whole series.
That's awesome! It's such a great route, and I already want to do it again! I don't blame you, that sounds like such a lovely idea to walk home after the trail :)
I've got to do it again this summer! I tried 2 summers ago during that one heatwave we had but had to stop in Reeth after my boots had chewed my feet in to oblivion. Good to see the route again!
Yeah you definitely should, and hiking it through a heatwave is so tough, the first half of my hike was during the May 2023 heatwave. I definitely wanna hike this again anyway, probably in the next couple years 😁
Beautiful Video. Thank you for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video , looking forward to the others , nice slow pace makes you relax ... Thanks.
Thank you, and happy you think so!♥️
Wonderful video, what do you film it on as the pictures and sound are really good. that Air b&b looked fantastic and I think you landed on your feet there
Aw thank you, and I used my GoPro Hero 11 (4K( for this, my first video with that camera! All my other videos on this cable were filmed with my old GoPro Hero 7 White (1080p) - with the exception of my WHW video which was actually filmed on my phone in 4K 😂
Inspiring! Another hike for my bucket list 😊
Thank you, I 10000% recommend it!
Whoop!! You've aced the weather again, Jen!
Showing the CtC off at it's best - just beautiful 🌅🌄
That lil cove was lovely ...and that sea worn rock! 😮♥
What a find Tracey's Place was, for £30 😊 I guess that's the benefit of last minute booking. I can't find her on Google etc tho 🤔(perhaps add links to good value for money places, if their owners are happy?)
Hope your 'puters recovered ?
Thank you! And I loved that cove it was so magical. And I’ll add in the link to the description now 😁
What a nice view enjoy my friend
Thank you!
Hi new subscriber. Absolutely beautiful video. So nice and refreshing 2c one about the journey snd not always the person although we like that as well😊 brilliant style so relaxing. Looking fwd 2 watching many more.
Hi, thank you 😁 happy you liked it, and that’s exactly my aim, to show people the stunning trails & views rather than my face (though there might be the odd glimpse 😂) I personally couldn’t stand there and film my face as I talk constantly, and although I talk a lot, I know viewers would much rather see the views, as I know I would. Hope you enjoy the upcoming videos!
Hi, what a great video. I loved how you took the time to show the detail whilst walking along the coast line, all the little coves and the wildlife. So many of these videos of the coast to coast seem to zoom along without really seeing anything in much detail. It’s on my bucket list to do, although I’ve been poorly recently I hope to be out and about sometime next year
Happy you enjoyed it, thank you so much! Yeah I noticed that too, some videos don’t show enough of the trail so I aim to do that, I’m glad you appreciate it 😁
I do hope you get round to doing it, it’s tough but an incredible experience. I hope you’re better now!
@@Orenjenwill be a few months before I’m ok to go out hiking again, came down with angina a few weeks ago, so hoping the medication sorts it out. I’d love to do it, this and the Cumbria Way are on my ‘to do’ list
This is my dream to do this walk
Definitely worth doing, though harder than it looks. :)
I did this is September 2021 stayed in accommodation every night, considering backpacking it next May. Look forward to watching your videos.
It’s such an amazing trail isn’t it? And you should so backpack it again if you’re able, though it’ll be so much more difficult than before, which I’m sure you know. You really feel the weight on your back when you’re climbing those fells in the lakes!
Nice video! Came to this channel via your WHW walk…
Thank you, and that’s awesome! Happy to have you here!☺️
Looking forward to doing this myself in the new year 🤞 in training for it currently 💪
Best of luck!😃
So long since I've been to St Bee's. My mother is from Whitehaven.
This was my first time there, it was lovely ☺️
I'm not used to seeing a hiking 'Point Of View' video, but it worked very well, I liked the way you included every day life, herding sheep, cars off-road and the views including the flora at the inlet. All your observations were well captured. One question thou, you were carrying 17 kg, what was your pack list?
Hi, oh thank you! I’m glad you enjoy my perspective, I aim to show as much as the hike as I can. And I actually show a picture of what I packed in my Day 2 video!
Love your videoing style, have watched a few C2C videos and yours are the most pleasurable. Wanted to do it for a while now but something always crops up to stop me, definitely going to get up off my arse and do it.
One question, you say you're carrying 17kg, that sounds a lot is that much really necessary.
Oh thank you so much! That’s so kind of you to say, and in terms of my carrying weight, it depends on how you’re hiking it as in will you be camping or stopping at B&B’s?
I carried all of my camping gear and none of it was ultralight (as UL is way more expensive) this included cooking gear, bottles of water, snacks, clothing, sketching stuff, toiletries and other bits and pieces. I think most people would’ve packed less 😂
@@Orenjen, I'll hopefully be staying in B&B's but will be taking a tent for a bit of independence so I'm not tied to a specific distance every day and there looks to be some beautiful spots to do a bit of wild camping.
@@mythai9593 oh yeah there are a ton of good wild camping spots along the way 😁
Hi Tiny Pine, your video is the loveliest coast to coast film I’ve seen yet. Is there any way I can get a copy of the route you took? I’m going it June/July and really fancy the route you’re taking. Parts of it look like Cornwall with the narrow lanes with high banks. Beautiful ❤️
Hi, thank you! And yes, if you check out my Strava I have the route recorded & posted on there! Here’s the link 😁 strava.app.link/L6g2dzDL7Hb
Ah that’s magic, thank you 🙏 I love your approach to it and I’m working my way through your films. You have a pace and approach that I feel comfortable with in my approach to this adventure. My training run is the Hadrians Wall c2c first. Thanks again for sharing your journeys, and sharing the route is an unexpected bonus! 😊
@@misterpontypine aw thank you, that's lovely to hear! I'm so glad you feel that vibe :D Best of luck with Hadrian's Wall & the C2C of course!
Nice video, is it possible for you to turn the background music down a little when you’re talking, sometimes it’s difficult to hear you properly?
Do you use the mic on the device you record with or have you got a separate one, it might help with wind noise if you get one with a fluffy cap…. 😂
Hi thank you, and I’ll work on that for my next one! ☺️ I level the sounds while editing so I’m able to hear any voiceovers/talking and I could hear it fine, but I understand everyone’s is different.
And when recording footage as I’m speaking it’s just my GoPro that I use, and for voiceovers just my phone!😂 I’m planning to invest on some gear though, thank you for the pointers ☺️
Is it possible to see popular places like buttermere/windmere and malham cove/gordale scar on the way? I know they are in the national parks on the way, but i wasn't sure how out of the way they are.
It’s possible to see Buttermere as you ascend up from Ennerdale Valley/Black Sail Hut before going back down towards Honister & Borrowdale. Though you’ll see it from above as you’ll be atop the fells, unless you take a day out to go down to it, you don’t physically pass it.
Windermere is a little too far south of this trail, but you pass right through Borrowdale, Grasmere & Patterdale! It also takes you up to some of the popular tarns in the fells such as Grizedale Tarn & Angle Tarn 😁
@@Orenjen thank you so much for the reply😊😊❤️ do you know about malham and gordale in the dales ?
Great video's we'll done hope I could get them to your quality feel free to have a look any advice greatly appreciated
Thank you so much, and I'll check some of yours out:)
@@Orenjen a thank you so much
