  • Back in August I decided to take a little break from filming Hiking the Wainwrights and get out with some friends for a wild camp; the first in over 3 years! So I was joined by Jen & Will and headed to one of the most amazing locations in the Lake District for some much needed mountain serenity. I won't be leaving it 3 years again!

    Beautiful video to see, now that our hiking days are few and far between as the nights start cutting in. Already planning hikes for Spring, so looking forward to seeing a few more Wainwright videos 😊

    That bit at the end about not, in your opinion, getting a decent enough photo. I'm often going out with a great idea and coming back with absolute garage. I stick a couple in Lr and mess with them for ages and think, if I'm buggering around this much is it worth saving?

    Looks like you wild-camped on Hard Knott, I was there earlier this year with two of my walking buddies and we reckoned it would make a great wild-camp spot with great views all around and a chance of a good sunset and sunrise. Sadly it is still to be enjoyed as we only managed one wild-camp this year. Still there's next year to look forward to. BTW, looking forward to 29th October 🙂👍

    I don’t see how this was “wild camping “ There wasn’t much to see apart from repetitive landscapes. No interaction from the other couple. No sitting around a fire together or even a basic stove. Tents sent up, goodnight and that was it until morning. Then all sat at a pub for breakfast. If you’re going hiking, who leaves everything to do with camping at home. I can’t see the point. That’s the fun of it. I skipped past the hiking ones. I’ve watched a few but they’re a bit samey samey. So when I found this one titled “wild camping” I was left depleted. Just constructive criticism.
