WALKING HOME for Christmas 2021 - Lake District to North Yorkshire on the Coast to Coast Footpath

- In 2021 I set myself the challenge of walking home for Christmas. I would follow the Coast to Coast footpath, starting in the Lake District and finishing in North Yorkshire in time for Christmas. The Coast to Coast footpath would take me through some of the most picturesque landscapes the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales has to offer, from the summit of Helvellyn to the vast open moorland of Swaledale.
Too often we rely on our cars to take us places and after what had been a dark and dreary couple of months I was keen for a challenge. Walking home for Christmas on the Coast to Coast footpath, whilst minimising my impact on the environment and maximising my time in the outdoors seemed like a great way to spend the holiday.
Thank you for watching, I hope everyone has a fantastic week and gets out exploring. Feel free to leave a like, comment or subscribe, I am always grateful of your support :)
Sometimes we forget that walking is simple we get caught up with kit and life in general 👍
Absolutely, some of the greatest challenges can be the simplest, you don’t need all the newest gear for an adventure 👍
Really Nice video and Beautiful nature. Enjoyed this video very Much. Thanks for sharing this great video this is cool. 🙂🙃🙂
Thank you so much! Such kind words, really glad you enjoyed it 😊
Another fantastic video and a bonus to see your dad (and mum) making an appearance. We thoroughly enjoyed watching the stunning scenery and brilliant camera shots.
Hi Jill, thank you so much for your kind comments! Hope you are all well. It was lovely to get the folks involved. Dad was very excited about being on film, he's told me Spielberg has been on the phone since asking for his availability :) Hope you have a wonderful week!
@@TheGirlGoneNomad we're both well thanks. I'll have to get your dad's autograph!
Are those 'Friends' references I see in the day titles... ?! 👀 I love the idea of finding adventure in the otherwise mundane, this was such an inspiring idea. Found myself smiling the whole time watching this :)
Thank you Chloe, haha I thought I'd try sum up each day! Absolutely, adventure from the doorstep is something I am very keen on. I am looking forward to seeing your adventures from Iceland! Hope you've had a great trip :)
What a great adventure through beautiful country. Wonderful video! Haha, I enjoyed your dad's filming at the end.
Thank you Seth for your kind comments! Haha, yes Dad was very excited to get the camera, think he fancies his own channel now!
This is a great walk..what an adventure..keep it up..
Thank you so much! Have a great week.
BETTY WHAT AN ADVENTURE!!! WHAT WOMEN!!! Amazing, so amazing, I loved every second of this video and your dad is THE hero!!!
Thank you so much for such kind words Little One! I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Haha yes indeed, Dad is quite the hero, think he fancies starting his own channel now :) I hope you have a lovely week and looking out for your next video 🤍
@@TheGirlGoneNomad I think your dad should definitely start his own channel!! I think it would be amazing!! Subscriber number one here ✌🏼
@@littleoneadventures I'll have to teach him how to turn on the camera! There will be no end to his bad Dad jokes :)
@@TheGirlGoneNomad I look forward to it 🤍
Great video & wonderful idea! 😎👍🎄👍😎
Thank you 😊
That was superb Betty. I didn't see your latest videos notified - I literally popped in to see if you had uploaded. Glad I did. It was a fantastic route back home and so worth it. I catch buses out and walk back - never a duff walk. How good is that to ne rescued by your mate and spend the next day together. Great stuff as was your father. He was stoked to be out with you. And to finish off with your mum was a treat. Awesome traiol throughout. Good going. Mark
Hi Mark, thank you for your kind words! Very grateful to be rescued my my friend, don't think I could have kept going in my B2 boots. Dad was very excited to be out, think he wants his own camera now! Catching the bus out in a great idea, or back, means you can go further. Hope all is well and you've had a great week, all the best Betty
@@TheGirlGoneNomad A pleasure Betty. I'm sure you were relieved and grateful - all turned out well. Good on your dad - let's hope he gets that camera. As for buses - love em. Sit back and let the drive do it. The week is good thanks. Peace.
@@WyeExplorer Indeed, here's to great friends. Think Dad has got his eye on an action camera, he'll be after his own channel soon! Glad to hear the weeks treating you well, Betty
Enjoyed that , just got sent home from work today as I was a wee bit ill, laid in my bed here and thought let's see if i can find something to fall asleep too , nope I was thoroughly enjoying that and sleep can come afterwards. Good stuff 👏 👍
Another fantastic video Betty! So glad you're back!
Thank you Otter! 😊
What an adventure, and what a lovely video! Papa Windwood is absolutely a hero, an unsung legend. Can we have more cameos please??
Thank you Katie! Haha I'll ask, though he said he had already been headhunted by Mr Spielberg and he's not sure he an fit in filming around the next blockbuster 😊
Hello Another Nice 👍 Upload Excellent job Friend Stay in Touche Thanks 😊
Thank you, really appreciate your kind words! 😊

Thank you so much Katie! It brings me so much joy that you enjoy them 😊 Star in another some time soon?
Great video and nice journey 👍
Thank you so much 😊
Great Idea, great effort, great vid.... ...one small point.. ur quite soft spoken, and the in-vid music is a bit loud, but once again great concept, subbed
Thank you for your kind comments and support! Really appreciate the feedback, I shall work on getting the sound levels right for the next one. Have a great week.
Fab video! I love the shots you take especially whilst out hiking, the effort you go to is great :D!
How cold did it get? The scenery looks lovely though, lovely contrast from lakes to moorland.
Thank you so much 😊 It wasn’t too bad, got chiller across the moors. I couldn’t believe how quiet the trail was, apparently it’s a great time to hike as everyone is (cleverly) keeping warm indoors.
@@TheGirlGoneNomad it looked lush - on my hike list ! Glad you were able to keep warm 🔥
Epic views and wow you crammed in some serious mileage! Great idea there enjoyed the video 👏
Thank you Adam! Really glad you enjoyed it, Christmas dinner was a welcome sight at the end that’s for sure! 😊
Awesome idea and such a good vlog, absolutely beautiful, peaceful, perfect place to be. 👍👏
Thank you Sarah for your kind comments! Really lovely to hear you enjoyed it 😊 It was certainly a beautiful trail to follow.
What a heart warming video, so proud of you! Thanks for sharing your journey ❤️
Thank you so much Elena for your kind words ❤️ Maybe I can persuade you both to star in one one day 😊
More videos with your dad please! 😂
He stole the show that’s for sure! He’d be in all of them if I let him 😂
