  • Wainwright's Coast to Coast walk - Day 5.
    Kirkby Stephen to Reeth taking in Nine Standards & the beautiful Swaledale
    Join me as I finally take on the mighty Coast to Coast route across England, roughly 190 miles.
    Passing through 3 national parks -
    The Lake District, The Dale's & The North Yorkshire Moors.
    My target due to time off work was to complete the trail in 10 days.
    I thought I would document my journey for lasting memories and to perhaps help/inspire others to attempt the C2C.
    Filming on a action camera (DJI Osmo Action) and editing the footage on my mobile phone using the App Kinemaster.
    Thanks for watching

    Lovely series - such peaceful footage without the need to get up at 5am myself to experience it

    Really enjoying these videos Darren. Nice and clear where you are and the little bits of info imparted are great. I’m planning the WHW for next spring , what’s your jacket? I keep trying to read the logo and it’s driving me mad.

    Hello Darren, I am enjoying your great videos as I do my research about C2C. I want to hike it with my family next year. What time of year is the best, regarding good weather. I am from San Diego, California and it would be nice to have pleasant weather.

      Hi Marissa. I would suggest June as the best month. Tends to be the best month for weather.
      Good luck :-)

    Think I may have to give this a go after the WHW. Thanks for continuing to share. I stayed at the Punch Bowl inn in late 90's when I was on a School trip I remember it being a nice place/area. Would be cool to stop there again 20 years later :)

      @@darrencurtisuk Oops, bit of late reply. Re-watching your vids again, readying for my camping season to start. You probably read on forum I made it to Beinglass and a big storm came in and next few days looked proper miserable and I knew the next sections were quite exposed so I bailed. I averaged about 11 miles a day. Hoping to improve on that this year. Going to be doing a few trips to Lakes and Dales in May/June then continue my WHW from Beinglass in July.

    Darren, I'm so pleased you enjoyed Swaledale. It's one of my favourite walks in England and I don't think many people know about it. Did you go up to the ruins of Crackpot Hall? You were very close to it.

      No I didn't, I gather it was just a few mins from where the path splits?
      Thought I'd save it till my next time up in that area!
