Hiking the Thames Path 🇬🇧 (295 km) and Graduating in Oxford
I walked the length of the Thames Path and stopped in Oxford to attend a graduation... 😉 The Thames Path is a National Trail that runs along the banks of the eponymous river from its source near Kemble in Gloucestershire to the Thames Barrier in London over around 180 miles/294 kilometres (officially).
My stats for this trip:
- 319 kilometres

- 10 days of walking
- vast quantities of pub grub.

Hiking the GR221 in Mallorca 🇪🇸 (150 km)
มุมมอง 9K2 ปีที่แล้ว
The GR221 or Ruta de Pedra en Sec (Dry Stone Route) offers some of the best hiking Mallorca has to offer, crossing the Serra de Tramuntana mountain range from one side of the island to the other. It's about 150 km in length and puts an end to the do-you-prefer-mountains-or-the-sea question: this trail has it all! 00:00 Intro 00:55 Day 1 04:32 Day 2 06:30 Day 3 09:35 Day 4 12:14 Day 5 16:32 To B...

Hiking Thru Holland (3/5): Pieterpad
มุมมอง 3.3K2 ปีที่แล้ว
The Pieterpad was a trail I'd been looking forward to for a while before starting it, because I was expecting there to be more hikers, as it's probably the most popular long walk in the Netherlands. The Pieterpad spans about 500 km from Pieterburen to the Sint-Pietersberg (Mount Saint Peter) close to Maastricht. I walked the Pieterpad as part of a bigger adventure: I went for a long walk (a "th...

Congratulations, Yoah! Great video and very good editing quality. By the way: the fruit that you are eating is a madroño (Arbutus unedo). In Madrid it used to be sold in greengrocers'shops and they used to make a liquor with it. Two questions: what camera have you used for this video? And what editing program? Thank you very much.
This video is a work of art. Congratulations
Loved your video! So well done. I’m planning on doing the Pieterpad (coming from Canada) in the fall and this sealed the deal. So few good videos of this trail. If you know of an English version of a guidebook or any other advice, please let me know if you have a chance. I also did the Thames Path a couple of years ago. Wondering how it compares. Thanks! Now a subscriber 😊
That crack of your icecream 😅 Good editing 😀
Ik w8 op een nieuw filmpje van je
Wow what an inspiring video and such cool editing style. 🤩 I am gonna hike at least part of it in a couple of weeks. Sleeping in the beach looks amazing. Thank you!
Wanneer ga je weer is wandelen?
Nice hike, nice video, thank you for sharing!
Great video looking at hiking this on April looks fantastic.I.like the look of your trail shoes what make are they as they look to have a nice wide toe box and I like my Altra lone peaks atb daz
Thanks so much, Daz! The shoes are Altras: the Olympus model. I love the wide toe box as well and these just have more cushioning than the Lone Peaks.
Hello, thanks for hiking were I live❤
And also a very nice channel, I hope that you get more views
@@Soyguaygod Thank you! I imagine Mallorca is a wonderful place to live - I certainly enjoyed the 2-3 weeks I spent there and would love to go back some day!
Cool video! The script and the images were amazing. Did you book the refugees before or you can just book them while you're at it?
Thanks, Marco! I booked the refuge on the go (the day before, or on the day) but I wasn't always able to book a place, so I'd actually recommend booking ahead if you have a decent idea about when you're going to want to stay in each refuge. Hope that helps and have fun out there!
Hey Yoah, in which month did you hike the GR221 (sorry if I missed it in the video)?
Hey! This was in early October 🙂
@@yoahvangelder Thank you so much.
I'm so glad I stumbled upon your video. I'm planning to do the hike in 2 months and I'm in the process of getting as much information as possible. Usually, I watch loads of videos for the info, not really enjoying them, but yours was really nice and thoughtful. So much that I just wrote my first comment ever :D keep up the great work!
Aw, thank you so much! Your lovely comment totally made my day! I hope you have the best time in Mallorca!
Een patatje speciaal. LOL
Leuke stijl van filmmaken! Ben mijn trip aan het voorbereiden, maar andersom, eerst menorca en dan mallorca, en wat later dan jij denk ik? ik ben er eind oktober. ik lees overal dat de route niet zo goed bewegwijzerd is, had je gpx files bij je? ik krijg er, na het zien van je video in ieder geval nog meer zin in!
Je bent waarschijnlijk alweer terug (!) maar ik gebruikte een app (mapy.cz) om de weg te vinden, wat inderdaad niet altijd makkelijk was. Ik hoop dat het allemaal is gelukt end dat je op een mooie trip terugkijkt!
Hele leuke video! Wow, daar is een tijd in gaan zitten, al die verschillende shots! Leuk gemonteerd ook. Wbt Pieterpad, ga hem binnenkort ook zelf lopen, maar wellicht niet zo hardcore als je deed ;) Dank voor de leuke video! Heb er zin in!
Dankje!! Heel veel plezier en succes!
I want to go in mid October as well, were there enough shops open to buy food regularly? And how were the bugs for camping?
I didn't have any issues with bugs when I did this. Some of the resorts I came through felt pretty deserted in the off-season, but I still found plenty of shops - at least one on most days, and there are beach bars and other things of that nature. Not a tonne of them along the entire trail though! If you're doing shorter days (and on the northern half of the island), it's definitely worth carrying food (and water) with you to make sure you have enough. I used maps (Google, Mapy.cz) to plan where to get food and drink. I hope that helps!
Leuk kanaal joh. Ga je er nog mee verder denk je ?
Thanks! 🙏 Ik denk het wel ja! Ik heb nog behoorlijk wat materiaal dat ik nog moet editen - kwestie van de tijd ervoor vinden 🙂
Question did you use air b &b for your accommodations? Still amazed by your editing
Thanks for your lovely compliment, Eric! I used www.vriendenopdefiets.nl/en for accommodations - you stay in people's homes (spare rooms, etc.), it's very reasonably priced (especially for Holland) and often a great experience! You can organise places to stay via phone calls or by email. Note that doing this in advance will greatly improve your chances of finding (conveniently located) accommodation. Highly recommended!
@Yoah van Gelder Thanks for the link. Will definitely use it on my hike 😊 Couple cousins already said they will join me for a couple days. Life is 👍
Really nice job the editing and showing the trail. Hunting for a trail to do in Holland for next year. Your video helped. Now just need to see if I can get my Dutch cousins to join me for a couple days
Another excellent video. Thoroughly enjoying your adventures except the 'incident'.
From the Netherlands last night to Mallorca tonight - vicariously enjoyed your next adventure! G'day from Australia!
Hi from Australia! Really enjoying your videos. We're interested in what gear you're carrying. You seem to travel lightly. Are you still sleeping on the z-pad you had on your pack in episode 1?
Hi Alistair! It's so cool to hear that a) people are still watching the videos I posted over a year ago (from Australia!) and b) that you're enjoying them - makes me very happy. 🙂 To answer your question: I am still carrying the z-pad from the previous videos, but started packing it inside my bag at this point, for a few reasons: - acts as a back-panel for the otherwise frameless backpack I used on this trip (not super important with thoughtful packing (and a light load), but still) - better packability: easier to reach items inside my pack and since I wasn't sleeping on it much anymore I could leave the pad in the pack most nights - aerodynamics 😎😉 All the best from Antalya, Turkey!
@@yoahvangelder Thanks for responding. Do you find the z-pad comfy? Just noticed your gear videos. Very helpful. Thoroughly enjoyed your videos. Nice music. Playlist?! Inspired to walk around The Netherlands!
'Comfortable' isn't the right word, exactly - 'doable' is a better descriptor for the z-pad, which definitely took some getting used to! I don't have a playlist for the music (and wonder what would be.a good platform - Spotify?) but appreciate the compliment! Thanks again for all your kind words!
@@yoahvangelder Appreciate your insights. Many thanks!
Mooie edit. Dankjewel :)
Thanks! I plan n doing some type of long distance walk in the Netherlands next fall and this was more than encouraging! Beautiful country.
Bedankt voor deze inspirerende serie.
Yoah leuke inspirerende video,s maak je . Wat ik me afvraag: hoe kom je aan je overnachtingen?
Hi Richard! Bedankt voor je mooie compliment 🙂90% van de overnachtingen tijdens deze trip waren via www.vriendenopdefiets.nl/nl
What is your experience with the Magic 100 Cumulus Ul bag?
Loved it for summer: it's basically the simplest, lightest bag (it's more of a hybrid/mixture of a sleeping bag and a quilt) I could find and works a treat. Benefits include no hood (you can cinch it around your neck), full zip (you can use it like a quilt/blanket), and light weight (high fill power). The foot box also has a great shape. Worked well for me in terms of length, too (I'm 1.85 m and it's a perfect fit). Highly recommended.
Great adventure. Did you use an app to navigate? How do you know the route?
I use the mapy.cz app for most of my hiking.
@@yoahvangelder Thanks
Vraag: wat voor schoenen draag je? Ik ben zelf net begonnen met wat fanatieker wandelen en heb op advies van verkoper half hoge schoenen gekocht. Dus ben erg benieuwd waarom jij lage hebt. Verder fantastisch beelden in al Je YT filmpjes
Hi Jacqueline! In deze video draag ik Lone Peaks van Altra. Deze zijn lager met een minder dikke zool dan de Olympus schoenen, ook van Altra, die ik op de Balearen aan had. De Lone Peaks zijn mijn grootste aanrader! En bedankt voor je mooie compliment! :-)
Can I ask what kind of shoes are you wearing?
Volgens mij ben je Nederlands😊 dus nog een keer de vraag wat voor schoenen draag je? En waarom draag je lage schoenen? Ik ben zelf net gestart met wandelen en heb half hoge schoenen gekocht op advies van de verkoper.
Hoi Jacqueline! Ik draag in deze video Olympus schoenen van Altra. Lage schoenen zijn wat lichter van gewicht en dat scheelt denk ik toch (wat) tijdens een lange dag je benen naar voren zwaaien. Mensen dragen geloof ik vooral halfhoge schoenen voor steun voor hun enkels, maar dat is voor mij niet echt nodig (maar: ik heb wel eens mijn enkel verzwikt tijdens het wandelen/banjeren dus neem dat met een korreltje zout).
Amazing footage and editing! Well done! I did this hike in summer 2021 as a challenge and it was definitely one of the harder things I've done. I only did wild camping and at over 30 degrees, you need to carry an insane amount of water with you. Finding shade was also nearly impossible in a lot of areas. Ironically though, I almost froze to death because there was a freak thunder storm at night while up on a mountain and my tarp didn't hold. If anyone is planning to do this hike in summer time, just don't.
👍🏼✌️
Do you happen to have the route you took? Maybe the GPX? Many thanks
Hi Ashley, I have everything recorded on Strava so could download the GPX files and share them with you (let me know how, and I will). Do note that I did get lost once or twice and I wouldn't recommend anyone follow the exact route I took because of this. Here are the links to the five days on Strava, if that helps: Day 1 - www.strava.com/activities/6073167447 Day 2 - www.strava.com/activities/6073167702 Day 3 - www.strava.com/activities/6078414738 Day 4 - www.strava.com/activities/6082499293 Day 5 - www.strava.com/activities/6090444778
Echt tof om Nederland op zo'n manier te zien!
I love your shorts! What brand are they? Do you have an affiliate link?
Thanks, Karl! That's really kind. The shorts are a pair of heavily discounted (covid era) swim shorts from John Lewis, so no link I'm afraid 🙂. In hindsight I could have probably gone for something/lighter stretchier but, equally, whatever you already own will probably work.
Great vids, planning to do GR221 in Jan. Sorry about the nose. You seemed to cope well!
NGL: it was tough!
I can see you are very ultra-light, but me with my over 8 kg base weight and always wearing medium hiking boots for a mountain hike, judging from the rocky terrain, should rather forget about the low walking shoes I use for lowlands hiking?
It is a question Yoah.
You winsum and you lose some 🤣🤣🤣
Hello, You have done it during the autumn, spring o summer? What month is this? I thinking about doing it now... but I'm affraid about the temperatures at the night, I'm going to sleep in the tent. :D
Hi! This was in the beginning of October, so I imagine now would be a good time as well. Just check to make sure the refuges are (still) open and aim for a good weather window.
@@yoahvangelder Thank you!

I loved that you took us on this adventure with you, i see a beautiful future in travel filming and editing. keep them coming!
incredible drone footage! I loved learning how you decide how far to walk everyday and how challenging it is to find accommodation
so much to love in this video and the accents and the singing made me laugh out loud. Sorry about your socks but like you said, you winsum you lose some 😅
