“Don’t you get nervous?” Stealthy Tarp Camping in the Woods | Lake District Wild Camp
Просмотров 58 тыс.Месяц назад
The questions I get asked the most (aside from “What camera do you use?” - it’s my Samsung phone) is “Don’t you get nervous hiking and wild camping alone?” So I thought I would touch a little on this topic in today’s stealthy tarp camp. I’m not advocating solo hiking and camping, I’m just sharing where I’m coming from in my quiet little corner of the Shire and doing what I feel is within my com...

    I’m a little late in seeing this. Love your videos. Here in Montana nobody would go backpacking without carrying bear spray. I don’t even know if they sell that in the UK but it’s basically pepper spray. I’m sure it would work on aggressive dogs. Keep well.

    Hello Chloe, thanks a lot for another visual treat! Love your videos to bits! Stunning, beautifully edited images with your mesmerising and hypnotic voice to boot! FYI: yesterday a decision was made over a dram; long weekend in Lake District in early October, 3 full days of walking and wild camping 🏕️. Any ideas where we should walk? Much prefer first hand info from you to google search. Take care ❤️👋

    • @FablesandFells
      @FablesandFells 20 дней назад

    • @FablesandFells
      @FablesandFells 20 дней назад

      I'm not an expert 😄 What general distance & elevation are you comfortable with per day?

    • @jacekrutkowski6298
      @jacekrutkowski6298 20 дней назад

      I suppose 20 km per day is optimal, elevation is probably not be an issue. With that in mind the total length should be about 60/70 km

    • @FablesandFells
      @FablesandFells 19 дней назад

      I don't tend to do specific recommendations as I don't know anyone's nav abilities but overall, the Langdale Valley is a good intro to the lakes and is a great base. There are some free parking spots otherwise a couple of national trust car parks. As it's October, these fells mentioned below are rockier so would fair better than the grassier fells which can be a bog-fest that time of year. If it were me, I'd maybe do something like... Day 1: Head up Rossett Gill past Angle Tarn and go do Great Gable and camp around there. Day 2: Lots of options such as corridor route to Scafell Pike then over Ill Crag to Head back to Esk Hause. You could then have the option of doing Esk Pike and Bowfell and camp around Cold Pike or Pike of Blisco. Day 3: Option to drop into Wrynose Path so you get back down to the Langdale valley via Blea Tarn, otherwise you can take a more direct route off Pike of Blisco. The view of the Langdales from Blea Tarn is probably the most iconic view. Have a chill at the pub and ditch your camping gear back at the car with the potential to head up to Stickle Tarn and do the Langdale Pikes circular out to High Stile. There's good options to extend or shorten any of this. Obviously if you're wild camping, it will really depend on weather at the time. E.g. It maybe better in the eastern fells and worse in the western plus any wind, temps etc may determine if you do small or bigger fells etc. Hope that helps as a starting point.

    Lovely video, Cam is just a bundle of joy. I'd love to be able to have another dog some day. Certainly living the best life. I'd love to have a go at wild swimming but I'm not sure if I have the confidence to do it. Pizza looks great, unfortunately I'm gluten free so they are more for looking at and drooling nowadays haha. Keep doing what you are doing. Lovely relaxing content.

    • @FablesandFells
      @FablesandFells 20 дней назад

      Thank you, he really is. Aw well I didn't have wheat/gluten for years so I feel you on that. I used to make gluten-free pizza bases as the supermarket ones weren't very good. They're quick and easy to make. I imagine there are more and better shop version these days?

    • @markvincent5241
      @markvincent5241 20 дней назад

      @@FablesandFells I tend to put two gluten free tortillas sandwiched together with a mature cheese spread then go very light on the toppings. Caputo flour do a gluten free version but it's nearly 10 pounds for a kilo. So only buy it for the occasional treat.
