Sorry, if you were mislead by the title/thumbnail, I've updated them now, atb Simon

@tubbatravels thanks and thanks for subscribing, atb Simon

@SpanielStrolls Hi there, not walked on the Worcestershire Way, so I can't really compare the two ☹️. Hopefully the North Worcestershire Path lives up to your expectations. Thanks for watching, atb Simon

Glad you liked the video. If you do this walk a GPX route file for this walk is available on Outdooractive - Winchcombe Wanderer. Thanks for watching, atb Simon

@WinchcombeWanderer Thank you, Simon. I have already mapped the route out on google Maps, we will probably do 5 short walks.

@@WebbysWalks no problem. Enjoy your walks.

Me too. Thanks for watching, atb Simon

Hi there, the campsites I stayed at are detailed in the video's description. I can't recommend the Monyash campsite I stayed in. The route does go through Knotlow Farm Campsite (just north of Monyash) which looked nice. I hope this helps, atb Simon

Thanks Snowy. Yes, the story about the bride is more interesting than it was built crooked in the 1400s. Even when it was rebuilt in 1856, the people of the parish insisted it be built crooked, atb Simon

Yes, it is a nice area, even in late October, atb Simon

Yes, it's an interesting place to visit. Everytime I go, I find something new, atb Simon

Hi Reg, I guess it's not something everyone fancies doing. Thanks for watching and commenting, atb Simon

No problem Mark. Yes it is a nicew part of the UK, atb Simon

I've completed 720 miles so far (Aug 1985 to Sept 2024). All in England atm but planning at least one trip to Scotland next year.

@@WinchcombeWanderer thanks for that Simon.

@@WinchcombeWanderer thanks for that Simon.

No problem Dave. The list of Long Distance Paths completed is in the 'UK End-to-End Walk' Playlist, atb Simon

Hi Dave, you are doing well and well over half way. I'm going to use the Forth & Clyde / Union Canal Towpath between Glasgow & Edinburgh. Good luck with the rest of the challenge, atb Simon

Thanks, glad you enjoyed the video. Yes, it starts from the car park, drop down into the lane behind where you have parked. Turn right and walk along the lane. The GPX of this walk is available from Outdooractive using this link, out.ac/INSdHv Enjoy the walk, atb Simon

@@WinchcombeWanderer Brilliant, thank you very much!!!! I look forwrad to doing it.

No problem, atb Simon

Thanks Phil, glad you enjoyed it. Are you going to walk any more of the Path?

@@WinchcombeWanderer Hope so :) Thanks again for the video.

@philbrown2202 No problem. Hopefully it's not to muddy at the eastern end of the Path for you, atb Simon

Walking up the Dragons Back sure looked a lot harder than the way I went up. Thanks for watching, atb Simon

@@WinchcombeWanderer that was our thinking too, far more sensible way around

As I'm going back again to do some more walking in the Black Mountains, I might end up walking up the Dragons Back!

@@WinchcombeWanderer that first haul up from Dinas castle certainly will raise the heart rate lol

sure will

... and cheap to set up too, atb Simon

Yes, most of upland UK is treeless now, atb Simon

Sounds hard work! atb Simon

It was good fun (apart from the blisters on my feet due to boots not being broken in enough).

The gear then was not as good or as light as it is now

Have you been to Wales to see where they lived?

@simonjanssen5326 Hi there, an endeavour I'm looking forward to. I've never walked in Scotland before, so I'm really looking forward to those Long Distance Paths. Thanks for watching, atb Simon

@WanderingJay Hi there Jay, "... all the trails", I thought my challenge was ambitious! The LDWA is a great resource, for finding and planning the next walking trip. I hope you're keeping well, atb Simon

@snowymatrix thanks Snowy. There are some great paths that you could join up what you have walked already, if you want to. Your Scotland trip sounds interesting, I was planning on doing the WHW at the beginning of this year but the weather was so bad I didn't go ☹️, walked the North Worcestershire Path instead. Enjoy Scotland, atb Simon

@SharonNottle-od1ix Thanks Sharon, there are some great paths to walk, atb Simon

@ScreaminLG Thanks Luke, atb Simon

No I've been. Is it good?

Sure was a nice relaxing visit, atb Simon

Thanks Dave. How's the garden you're looking after going?

@@WinchcombeWanderer I’m getting there, probably about 15 percent left untouched, it’s certainly looking tidy now and they are very pleased. Been doing a bit of painting for them too, just do about 4 days a month. I’ve not done any planting yet just living with what’s there. I grew a row of beans. 👍🙏 👍

@@DaveGoodman1959 That's good news, I'm glad it's going well. The legumes seem to be producing the most this year, atb Simon

It sure is a beautiful area and I'm planning on going back again. Probably pick a day in the week like I did for this walk. Thanks for watching and commenting, atb Simon

Hi there Mark, I did manage to pick a good day. I guess there is more traffic on the path than when you and I last walked in that area, it is also part of the Cambrian Way now! atb Simon

@@WinchcombeWanderer Hey, great to see you on a good day. Yeah, it is busier. But still them paths are as much a scar as the worn ones.

They sure are

That part of the route is on the Cambrian Way, so I guess it gets alot of traffic. Sad but it will cut down the erosion of the ridge. Hopefully the video brought back some happy memories, thanks for watching and commenting, atb Simon

They sure are, atb Simon

Hi Steve, the walk down the ridge sure did give wonderful views of the rest of the Brecon Beacons. It's always good to stop and look back from where you have come from. Thanks for subscribing and commenting, atb Simon

Nice little villages and countryside. I'm looking forward to exploring the county again! Thanks for watching and commenting, atb Simon

Hi Simon, yes it was an enjoyable trip. I guess once you have passed the A52/Mayfield area, it is easy walking in pasture land until the end of the Way. Which many may not find interesting but I did like the walk down into Ellastone and the walk along the River Dove. Thanks for watching, atb Simon

Sure is. Thanks for watching, atb Simon

Hi Dave, it is nice walking in the White Peak. After I finished, I did walk another 17 miles to Rugeley on the Staffordshire Way. I used campsites as I only feel happy to do Leave-No-Trace camping on Dartmoor or in more remote places. Have a good week, atb Simon

Yes, it was an enjoyable walk. One to add to a wish list for sure. I arrived at the Bulls Head on Monday, I knew they didn't do food on Monday's but they are also closed 😲. I would suggest you ring them about camping if you want to stay there. I can't recommend the campsite I stayed in but the route does go through Knotlow Farm Campsite (just north of Monyash) which looked nice. I hope this helps, atb Simon

@@WinchcombeWanderer That's great many thanks Simon, You video will be of good use, The Limestone Way has been on the list for sometime. Nice Channel and enjoy your content. Thanks Again Phill

@phill2383, no problem Phill, have a good trip. Thanks for the kind words, they are much appreciated, atb Simon

Glad you enjoyed it. It was a nice walk to the start of my 5 day backpacking trip to Rugeley on The Limestone Way and The Staffordshire Way. Thanks for watching, atb Simon

@@WinchcombeWanderer enjoy your 5 day trip mate👍

All completed and enjoyable too. Video to follow soon

Nice place to grow up, unless you don't like the outdoors, atb Simon

No problem, glad you enjoyed it.

@jojo1960uk glad you found the video useful. Hope you have a good walk and I'm sure the views won't disappoint, atb Simon

@WinchcombeWanderer Well, I did it... I did the double. Chase End Hill to End Hill and back 🤣 Still recovering 😵‍💫🙄😅 What a beautiful range of hill though and all that ancient history blew my mind!

@jojo1960uk Congratulations on 'the double'. Glad you enjoyed the walk and hopefully you don't take to long to recover. atb Simon

thanks for watching

Hopefully your recovery is not to long and you're out and about walking soon. You should be able to watch the next part of the trip on Monday! atb Simon

Thanks Simon.

yes it is a shame that you feel you could not do it alone. Is there someone you could walk the tunnel part or all of the Way with? Or I'm sure you could find an overground route bypassing the tunnel. Hopefully you get to do this walk someday, atb Simon

It sure was pleasant wandering up the River Severn, atb Simon

@@WinchcombeWanderer Hey, that's good to hear Simon. Take care.

I made them wide enough to be able to rake the middle without stepping on the soil. Thanks for watching, atb Simon

Your welcome, atb Simon

It was indeed a lovely walk, which I enjoyed in spite of the rain on Day 2! I used the Route Book but I've also created a route on Outdooractive, the link to that is, www.outdooractive.com/en/route/hiking-route/central-england-and-the-midlands/st-kenelm-s-way-50-miles-n2s/287568551/?share=%7Ezybtjnzt%244ossoxct Yes, I did see signs for the Wychavon Way in that area. I appreciate your kind words and I'm glad you enjoyed this and my other walks. You might be interested in the next one too, the North Worcestershire Path, atb Simon

@@WinchcombeWanderer Thanks for that Simon, i shall look forward to your next walk. Cheers Dave.

No problem Dave, have a good weekend. oh and enjoy the walk

Thanks Simon, I enjoyed the northern end of the Way so much, I went back last week to do the North Worcestershire Path. Hopefully you can get your vacation soon, atb Simon
