I completed this walk today. After watching this video in June I felt inspired. It was physically the hardest thing I’ve done. We were in cloud all day and got to the car wet through and exhausted. But what an achievement! Thank you for your inspiration.
@@shak5006 the corridor route described in the video approx 6hrs to the top. a shorter router is the Wasdale route which apparently is about 3 hrs to the top
I’ve smiled along with you - every step of the way. At nearly 80 I’m probably past experiencing this sort of trek , but I still love the wild places and get out among them when I can. Thanks so much for sharing your pleasure - I’m off to research your other videos now!
Absolutely love Abbie's videos, soo enthusiastically upbeat, positive, well edited and always delivered with that beautiful infectious smile. A real tonic for the soul !
Well said Eric I have only just found Abbies channel and can't stop watching her adventures. Especially the Lake District ones, it reminds me of when I was in England and went there.
I just happened upon this amazing young lady and she sure is an inspiration to all who love walking the outdoor trails. I’m a beginner at 61 but sure would love to do this. Thanks Abby, and God bless you
Our thanks goes to you Abbie for taking the time to share your thoughts and feelings with us all. Your positivity rubs off on all of us and speaking for myself i feel privileged to watch your videos.Its a thumbs up and a big smilie from me.
I climbed that route about 6 years ago and all of the places you passed like the pack horse bridge and stuff I remembered vividly. I tracked back through my pics in my phone and sure enough there they were. It’s strange how images of landscape stick in your mind. Great video.
You said those words right its where i belong. We are blessed with so many places to walk whether lowlands and uplands we have some stunning scenery. Thanks for sharing.
Exactly why I moved to the lakes and lived there for 4 years, doing all 4 rounds of the Wainwright's 852 tops plus other lower ones and many of them multiple times but your reasons to be there echo most hikers... Well done
I did Scarfell back in 2007 and went the route you said your glad you hadn't gone. The false summit and the deep valley before the final climb to the summit was so heartbreaking. But very worthwhile once we got to the summit.
You are like having an injection of inspiration enabling me to try and do things that I thought I couldn't. Absolutely tremendous film. Your thoughts words and even deeds are truley great. What a walk. Never done this one. Enjoyed being along with you. Thanks a million.
Abbie i have just started watching you, what can i say. You do not need inspirational quotes! You could clearly see how much you was enjoying the amazing views. You are inspirational just being you. It is written all over your face how much you enjoy being Outdoors. I have to agree the buzz is second to none! You have put me on to the West highland way, thats a route i will be doing. Keep up the good work Abbie 👍 Stay wild
Thankyou for sharing your journey. You're amazing person. I visit Lakes district with my other half at begin of August 2021 and we love the Lakes the beauty of the landscape it was a amazing. We went up The Great Mell Fell, Hallin Fell and Catbells Fell. I did want to climb scarf Fell Pike but didnot have the nerves to do may be next time , you have gave me courage to try next time I am back up the Lakes. Thankyou again.
Thanks Abbie - I watched this while in lockdown and it just reminded me just how beautiful it is up there - it's lovely to see your smile grow bigger and bigger as you travel up the mountain - I know exactly how you feel. I'll definitey do this route next time I'm up that way and the weather is good. You are an inspration.
Another wonderful video. Having completed the route myself many times in all sort of conditions I can honestly say you sum up the emotions perfectly. I have said before you truly are an inspiration to everyone. Thoroughly enjoy all your videos. Thank you.
Wow, as you say, only by being there can one experience the frankly sacred, giddy euphoria of the Lake District Mountains. Thank you though for evoking that sense of wonder, this exile is already route-planning for a return home soon.
Came across your great video by accident. I really appreciate it as my son and I did the same walk one July a few years ago starting at 5am. we knew the weather would be bad but we carried on and once past Sty Head tarn we walked in total mist seeing only a few feet either way and even at the top we saw nothing so really like seeing what it's like on a good day. Thank you.
@@AbbieBarnesWILD thanks for your reply, when we got to the summit we were the only ones there, I didn't realise how strange that is till I saw your video.
Thanks for posting Abbie enjoyed following a route that I did a few years ago - in rather worse weather. One little correction at 18:51 that zig zag path is going up Lingmell, not Scafell. Scafell is over the other side, behind Scafell Pike and not visible from here but you can see it behind you in the cloud at 20:37.
Found your channel yesterday. We did this route in September and boy was it hard work (both aged 56 and fairly fit but it was hard going). We went up and down via the same route which meant negotiating the 'bad step' twice, didn't like that at all but we did it! There and back took us over 7 hours as my toes were absolutely killing on the way down (now bought some new slightly larger boots after that experience!) Will be watching a lot more of your videos for some tips as we are planning on doing the Three Peaks next year - over 2 weeks, though!!
My wife and I climbed Gros Morne mountain ( the highest peak on the island of Newfoundland) . The approach has a similar scree slope to Scafel, though more boulder size. You reach a certain point and the air cools noticeably. Not unusual to find caribou up there . When we were there in a July there was still some snow. Great video.
Top, Top quality video, superbly shot. It's not easy, walking on scree and shooting and talking all at the same time, but to also make it look easy, that takes some doing. Wonderful comments about climbing your own mountains, setting yourself a challenge. As for inspiring others to get out and explore, I can totally relate to that. It doesn't matter whether it is a mountain or a hill, if it presents a challenge that you can overcome then it is worth it. And for those that genuinely cannot do it, for whatever reason, well what better than to spend half an hour enjoying the wonderful scenery and suberb commentary that accompanies it. Inspirational in every sense.
Hi Abbie, I have climbed this four times with my cat and dog keeping me company. I visit the Lake District every six weeks undertaking 214 Wainwright fells in 36 walks. Loving your videos.
This is already video four I have been watching in the last couple of days, about your adventures in the Lakes. I do really enjoy them, think the will put a smile on many peoples faces!!!! will be in the Lakes myself late October for a week, hopefully I will have some good weather aswell.
Abbie you had me hooked!!! i really enjoyed watching your journey, very inspiring,. me and my husband just did Mount Snowdon and Scafel Pike is next. Thank you for sharing your experience. This should be your vocation in life, your a great presenter!
You did well to get conditions like this. Not always this good, stunning views ! I have done this walk, yes it is tough, but rewarding when you get to the summit. Excellent quality of video footage !
Another wonderful video Abbie, you are such an enthusiastic and eloquent ambassador for the great British countryside. I can almost feel the crunch of the stones under my boots and the gentle edge of the breeze on my face in watching this. Well done. A real uplift for the spirit 👍
incredible video. thanks for the route idea, and thank you for the enthusiasm. the entirety of the video you had a smile on your face, and that really reflects how the lake district makes me feel!!!!
You just need to get out & do it, take your time. I was unfit, sat doing an office job for 5 years & no exercise, I've been up Helvellyn & Blencathra, doing Scafell Pike in 2 weeks!
I loved your video! I camped in the Lake District 15 years ago and did several routes, including Scafell. It worked as an anti depressant for me, the walking (alone) and being outdoors all the time. I understood your need to share with loved ones! My legs were killing me after 5 days of climbing but I blame that on being Dutch (flat country😉).
Awesome video, cheers Abbie. I think I'll watch it again tonight! We went up to Styhead Tarn last year from Seathwaite with the dog, and it is amazing up there - one of my fav walks. All the best, Terry
I have only recently discovered your channel and have to say you make great content. You are genuine and a very likeable person, which makes viewing your videos a real pleasure. Thank you
THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR EXPERIENCE ON SCAFELL PIKE! MY HUSBAND Ronald Allen, shared his knowledge of the Mountain with his Scout friends! Hurrah! Cynthia Allen-McLaglen
Thanks for taking me to the summit of Scafell Pike.... I've not been up there for some 40 years... 😃👍 it's not changed much.... although perhaps a bit more popular these days. My old dad and me linked up summits to get to Great Gable.. and while at the summit of that the cloud descended in a sudden and we couldn't see our hands in front of our faces. It was almost dark before we worked out how to get down safely.... and we were met by mountain rescue coming up to find us as we were reported missing... 😄 luckily they hadnt come too far as we were almost back at camp. I think this is in my bucket list to do again. So beautiful around there. Thanks Abbie Best wishes...... Steve.
It was great to see the walk done with no mist or low clouds as I have done in the past amazing scenery, I was unlucky last April to get Covid which left me very ill and unable to walk over half mile, however like you say never give up and I can now walk 4miles without feeling dead. I watch your videos and I got to say Abbie they are inspirational to those who struggle to get back on their feet, your information of the walk is interesting and informative. I watch your videos to keep me sane and know that I will be back on those hills again. My aim next year is for the Offa’s Dyke at 174miles I have a bit more training to do yet. Please keep these videos going as you make walking look enjoyable and not an uphill slog cheers to you Abbie.
Superb video which brought back memories. I did Scafell a couple of years ago and it was one of the toughest things I had done both mentally and physically. I knew I had achieved something but seeing your video has just reminded me of the enormity of my achievement. So glad I watched it. Amazing Abbie!
Excellent video. I work in what can be a fairly stressful work role. Prior to going to work this am this has been a real taste of what I love. Thanks for bringing this to me today
What a wonderfully inspiring video Abbie. I know fell walking and happy people go hand in hand and you are certainly no exception. I climbed up your descent from the Pike and yes, not easy at all. Very enjoyable 👍👍
Love your videos Abbie, and more importantly my 3 year old daughter loves watching them with me and its giving her a real interest in getting out which is great for me as I love it.
Love your videos Abbie , so enthusiastic. I'm going to do the Corridor route from Seathwaite this Summer. Some 50 odd years since I was last up Scafell Pike.
First time watching your videos. Really made me smile on a lonely day and to share in your joy of reaching a goal. Will be watching more,of your videos, thanks for sharing. Andy UK
Thank you so much for this amazing video. I will be hiking Scafell Pike this coming Friday and watching your video has made me feel very excited for it. I've subscribed to your channel and will be watching many more of your videos. Thanks again!
The Scramble at 11:55 is where I and a few other got lost last week. We were coming the other way. We missed out that section and headed down the steep hill not far from your footage at 12:30. Very steep with low visibility in the wettest conditions. We made it out just a little sketch just a little extra to walk.
Brilliant watch. Inspiring and such a positive person. I’m doing scarfell in a month. Hopefully follow a similar route and enjoy the views. Again fantastic video and outlook on the trek for scarfell.
Hi Abbie! Just started investigating through your channel. I been in the Lake District in 2019 for the first time and I love it! Scafell Pike was only next point on my 3 days rout but yes, amazing place! Effort worth absolutelly!But I have a feeling I had biggest backpack on the way through lol. I done in 3 days just under 60km in the mountains and even planed my rout before-I have to say- little mistakes. First day was obsolutely exhausting. I was so far in the mountains and get back to the car wasn't great idea, so only way was just keep going. Of course couple of wrong turns on the map compare to the reality didn't make me happy lol but in the middle of the wild you need make some decisions. Snapped my walking poles in 90 degrees in first day, scratched my phone, camping in the wild and SPACE! Love this place. Take care, Tom.
We have just started walking in The Lake District, 7 peaks done with plenty more to do. This is the first of your videos that I have watched, such an inspiration to get out there and do much more. Thank you
Loved this video, we climbed this same route (up and down) several years ago for our first ascent of Scafell Pike and the corridor route was so special at every point, but especially the view along the adjacent valley, the views from the top, in all directions and the relief on my knees of finally making it down to the car 🤣 We just used a map an compass and the route from the first tarn isn’t so obvious unless you are looking for if. We also climbed on a gorgeous sunny day, although it did rain as we reached the summit, but it didn’t dampen our spirits.
Glad you had good weather, I climbed Wansfell Pike, first ever climb in horrible cloudy, windy and rainy weather. Really took a lot out considering the conditions. Would love to do scafell one day
I did Scarfell last year. Really enjoyed the video! I ended up hurting my knee on the way down, partly due to the terrain being so rocky but also because I wasn't stopping to give my legs time to recover. I was with a group of annoyingly fit people so was trying to keep up..! Half way down i realised i was landing on my left leg for more or less every big step down and although i consciously tried to correct this i ended up with a sore knee for weeks after.. and it's still a bit funny even a year later! Had the same experience as you though, it's wonderful up there!
Awesome inspiring vid Abbie! When I go out in the wild it's always the forest, one day I hope to go somewhere in the mountains, so beautiful and peaceful!
One thumbs down !? I never did walk the Scafell range, although mostly the same path up to Great Gable. Love watching these videos Abbie, keep up the good work 👍🙏🏼 Kenny.
I completed this walk today. After watching this video in June I felt inspired. It was physically the hardest thing I’ve done. We were in cloud all day and got to the car wet through and exhausted. But what an achievement! Thank you for your inspiration.

Great to share the adventure!
Love your enthusiasm for the great outdoors. Your commentary is outstanding. 👍👍👍😊😊
So glad you enjoy the videos! Great to share the adventure :)
Like the mountain, Abby is a breath of fresh air.
Those views! So many places to pull the kettle out and have coffee.
Thanks for sharing this amazing walk.
So true! Except I probably wouldnt have made it to the top if I stopped as often as I would have liked for coffee hahaha!

Yet another great account of another iconic route - inspirational. Thank-you!
Lovely. I stayed at Seatoller a million years ago. Must go back.
Great post Abbie. Such a stunning area on a truly beautiful day. Many thanks.
This is on my bucket list to do. I am nervous but I want to achieve something like this
Same. I want to do it this year but not completely confident I'm in good enough shape for it!
Not that bad really, I went up and there were all sorts,toddlers,older people etc..just take your time and good footwear 👍

The crystal waters are an inspiration , thank you Abbie.
Did this yesterday although we took a different route to the summit… hardest thing I’ve ever done…. But loved every second… thank you

Good to the landscape when dry. Did not notice as many sheep in the area as in other videos of the area.
Yes, a few around but not as many as in other parts of the Lakes!
One of the few of yours we haven’t watched Abbie - just came across it looking for the corridor route.
Great video and presentation as always 🙂
Completely enjoyed that. Planning on scaling Scafell Pike before the summer's out and wanted to get a good idea. Nice little video 👍🏻
Love your videos x a real inspiration . I'm doing this route today and it's because of you . 🤓💪✌
Simply beautiful and inspirational. 🥰
Big smiles on there, looked like your cheeks were aching. Great vid, cheers
That's not an uncommon experience when I head out actually!!! Thanks for watching!!

I was so far in the mountains and get back to the car wasn't great idea, so only way was just keep going. Of course couple of wrong turns on the map compare to the reality didn't make me happy lol but in the middle of the wild you need make some decisions. Snapped my walking poles in 90 degrees in first day, scratched my phone, camping in the wild and SPACE! Love this place. Take care, Tom.
Inspirational and Motivational…. Thank you
We have just started walking in The Lake District, 7 peaks done with plenty more to do. This is the first of your videos that I have watched, such an inspiration to get out there and do much more. Thank you
Awesome abbie. That's one I've not done yet,,,, Thanks again hun you shared with us all😁👌❤️❤️❤️stay safe n well
Love the video. I came to the lake district when I was a kid. Tried to climb a mountain, dont remember the name. This looks like a beautiful place.
Loved this video. Great energy, loads of good vibes. Thanks for the detailed route up!
Loved this video, we climbed this same route (up and down) several years ago for our first ascent of Scafell Pike and the corridor route was so special at every point, but especially the view along the adjacent valley, the views from the top, in all directions and the relief on my knees of finally making it down to the car 🤣
We just used a map an compass and the route from the first tarn isn’t so obvious unless you are looking for if. We also climbed on a gorgeous sunny day, although it did rain as we reached the summit, but it didn’t dampen our spirits.
I know you did the hike a couple of years ago but just watched it and really enjoyed it thank you.
What a tremendous video Abbie, Gradually working my way through your playlists and feeling inspired to do the South Downs Way as a result!
Glad you had good weather, I climbed Wansfell Pike, first ever climb in horrible cloudy, windy and rainy weather. Really took a lot out considering the conditions. Would love to do scafell one day
I did Scarfell last year. Really enjoyed the video! I ended up hurting my knee on the way down, partly due to the terrain being so rocky but also because I wasn't stopping to give my legs time to recover. I was with a group of annoyingly fit people so was trying to keep up..! Half way down i realised i was landing on my left leg for more or less every big step down and although i consciously tried to correct this i ended up with a sore knee for weeks after.. and it's still a bit funny even a year later! Had the same experience as you though, it's wonderful up there!
Fabulous views, another great walk, thanks Abbie!!
Thanks for watching!
Awesome inspiring vid Abbie! When I go out in the wild it's always the forest, one day I hope to go somewhere in the mountains, so beautiful and peaceful!
One thumbs down !? I never did walk the Scafell range, although mostly the same path up to Great Gable. Love watching these videos Abbie, keep up the good work 👍🙏🏼 Kenny.
Thanks Kenny!
Another favourite I've done may times (in reverse) thanks again for sharing your wonderful videos
