Hi Liam, I was the guy with the 20p, I'll be honest, I thought you were opening a new restaurant 😉 😀 😄
😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
😅😅😅
Not so much a pop up restaurant but rather a poop up
Countryside! So beautiful...
You say 182 miles but I think you've done an extra 20 just setting that camera down and having to walk past it a few times haha. Incredible feat & incredible editing mate. Love your content.
And climbing all those ladders to do the arial shots !!
@@katiefincher2433 I don't know, but a lot of drones from DJI have a follow mode (they automatically follow you) or automatic shots (the drone moves in pre programmed paths)

ye takes an effort to film things on ya own
What a great film. I did this walk in 1987 with my Father . I am now 62 and have just done the Cumbria Way. You have brought back loads of memories brilliant !!!
Nice one roger!
It makes me so happy to hear stories like this. I struggle sometimes, but what motivates me to keep going is the idea of going on long walks like this in the future. Thank you :)
How was the Cumbria Way? I plan on doing this soon.
gowan roger!
I'm 37 and been a walker since 15. Mainly IML marches in various countries but neglected our own fair shores. Now with two young children I look forward to walking with them. Sadly the options are now limited in the UK as much land has been built upon but to escape to this beauty is truly a treat
Literally my favourite thing to watch. I loved the lack of music, made it really immersive.
Great video and congrats on the epic walk
100% agree on the style of video, everything else on TH-cam seems to sound the same these days.
@@GamerDaze-r6n yes Motorhoming , it’s exhausting .
It’s refreshing to get the raw sounds only. Total different experience. Doesn’t need a polish or flair at all!
100% agree music in videos takes away from the natural beauty
Thanks!
You could occasionally fade in a map showing where you are and how far we've traveled so we can follow along a bit better, just a thought. It would give the whole thing a more adventurous feeling.
Could you show us an example on any of your videos of what you are suggesting?
@@lioneljonson161 it’s pretty clear what he’s suggesting by how he worded it
@@shallowgod5539 r/whoosh
@@lioneljonson161 What?
He needs to edit his videos better. Great videos though
I saw this video a few weeks after it came out and instantly messaged my friends to do this walk with me. They both dropped out at Grasmere and my Dad came up to finish the walk with me. Was an amazing 2 weeks, so happy I could spend that time with my Dad!
That is a journey and time spent with your dad that will last forever. Awesome job.
Wonderful! As a 68 year old born again backpacker who has just rediscovered the delight of solo long distance walking I salute you! Can’t wait for next years adventures😁
I am addicted to Liam’s walks, there is something so soothing and grounded about them. Even though I don’t walk long distances, am unfit and old, I really want to try this sort of hiking and wild camping. In my head I have bought all the gear and I’ve planned a three day trip around a nearby lake at a time when there are no midges because I live in Ireland.
Rolling wave. Do it. Go hiking and enjoy nature. It sure is bliss . You are the age that u think you are. Think yourself young. And get out and enjoy nature while you still can it is a great feeling
@@lionofjudah4114 you are very sweet. Thank you.
@@rollingwave2732 bless. You only the age that u think you are. And Ireland is very nice. I have been to cork and Dublin few yrs back. Loved it. Love the Irish accent.
@@rollingwave2732 can I ask u if u Have any quick remedies to get rid of a cold that has only just come upon me. I will be going on holiday next week n I want this cold gone. I don't drink alcohol.. so that out the question. Anything to get rid of it ASAP
@@lionofjudah4114 I don’t get colds. I think I have had them all by now. The only answer that I can give is to get as much rest as possible. And if you can sleep the more sleep the better. It has to do its thing and go through your body. You don’t want to make it worse so that it turns into something else. Good luck and I hope you have a lovely time.
That's good, without a watch !! The sun is my clock !!
I've just learnt it😊
Beautiful land from coast to coast. From an American whose ancestors left from there in the 1600s. Good to see the home country up close and personal.
When you say "grab some popcorn and put your feet up" I can feel my shoulders drop and jaw relax. Thanks so much for your content, man, unironically helping me through one of the toughest periods of my life. If you're reading this Liam, have a lovely day pal.
Aww, honestly hope things get better for you 🫂 Liam is a tonic.
Keep your chin up Tom 👍
Great escapism for all of us living very dull, grey corporate lives Liam- keep up the amazing content.
Nothing stopping you getting outside yourself! The outdoors is free, if you don’t like your job, do something about it
maybe you should do something about your life instead of watching youtube and netflix to escape
@@sonarbuge7958 lmao
@@sonarbuge7958 True lol. People spend so much time indoors watching videos that they could literally be spending outdoors instead.
@@sonarbuge7958 people like you are so annoying
A lovely video. Did that with my parents back in 1990 when I was 25. Parents are both 86 years old now with disabilities and dementia but that was a reminder of wonderful times. Thank You. It would be great if every young person could do what you have done. A valuable physical and mental experience.
So happy to have found your channel Liam, such refreshing and wholesome content! I love the sense of adventure in every video you make!
This 👏👆
Definitely, what a wholesome endeavour, we need to encourage more young people to Leave no Trace Wildcamp Coast to Coast . A lot of cyclists are doing the same via Gretna , Blanchland , twice Brewed etc .
Exactly! This is what TH-cam should be about. Brilliant stuff.
Yo didnt expect u here
What a great film! Brilliant
I did this journey 15 years ago as a 19 year old, still one of my best memories. What a beautiful walk it is! Good on you mate!
Liam, you inspired me to walk from London to Bristol solo in 4 days, to experience some of what you have in your videos. I also decided to use the walk to raise funds for a charity in South Africa. 7 children are now able to go to school this year with everything they need paid for. Thank you Liam. Love your videos. Keep walking.
Bless you Joshua king. Keep on going. And the lake District is lovely and you really wander if you are in England with the mountains there n lakes etc. We stayed in Penrith one time and another time we camped on a farmer's field. Surrounded by mountains. And another time we stayed near Carmel. There is a famous racecourse there. We crossed it to do a hike what we were doing with our children. Near sawrey is my favourite place in the lakes. You can visit Beatrix potters home that she left to the national trust. It is a museum. It really is amazing. She bought farms and left them all to the national trust in her will. Cos she didn't want anyone building rubbish on the land and keeping it as it is. Beautiful land there in Cumbria
This is amazing, well done you! Brilliant idea and thanks for sharing the idea, hopefully it can spread so that more people do it :)
Well that was a lovely way to spend 30 mins. Thanks Liam for taking us on your adventures 🙏😊
I’ve had the pleasure to guide this hike in its entirety 8 times and walk it once as a photographer. This film perfectly captures the crossing, it’s scenery and spirit. Truly excellent job.
Mate your videos genuinely put a smile on my face. They're a great escape from the day to day 9 - 5 lifestyle most of us get caught up in!
Cheers for watching, Chris.
A young man with character , very rare these days . It’s a pleasure watching your channel and I’d miss it if it left . So thank you Liam and keep going to keep leading with example .
Thank you for sharing this absolutely gorgeous landscape. The United Kingdom is such a beautiful place!
Unreal mate. Makes me want to quit my 9-5 job and go on these sort of adventures.
Do it lol
You can just go out from 5pm til 9pm. That's 4hrs so rougly 12 miles should be doable. Most people would be unable to walk constantly outside for more than about 4 hours without a break anyway.
@@engineeringvision9507 nobody has to energy to dick about walking after being in work all day . Thought you had the vision
Liam! Backpacking Britain was recommended to me about a month after it came out and man I absolutely loved that video. Thought it would be a one-off sort of thing though, I'm so very glad you've made another, fantastic piece of work my friend, had me smiling the whole way.
Backpacking across Canada maybe perhaps?
I used to chef at that place @ 25:00 for a few years, I actually used to live in that cabin the in background. Its changed hands since then but gotta admit that pizza looks pretty good.
Dude I love your energy and appreciation for life and the simple things. I'm a huge hiker so I feel you!
Greetings from Argentina!
First time I've come across your channel, really enjoyable content. I'm looking to start walking the great paths of the UK. I lost my leg due to an accident in the army so want to do these to raise money and awareness for the charities that have helped me and so many others. Look forward to watching your others. ✌️
Hop it goes well fr you
@@merfymac if that was a pun, well played… that was masterful
Great video Liam. Really well filmed, especially the drone shots.
the walking to the camera shots never fails to put a smile on my face. i can always see the creator in my mind walking forward, placing a camera down, walking back the way they came to walk back the other way 🤣
Enjoyed every bloody minute of this.. *sigh*. Miss England.. *so* beautiful thank you!!🥰👍😊
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
So refreshing to see a young guy doing something nice with making content rather than trying to go viral doing stupid dances or pranks , keep it up you'll go far doing this , literally. 💪🏻👌🏻🙏🏻
plenty of fresh air and exercise , just the tonic i need.last was up the pennines in the early 1980, when i was 31, 70 now and still got itchy feet.must get up there soon.
G'day Liam, just watched this video mate. Absolutely beautiful mate.. What a legend that's a huge walk.. I'm actually Welsh 🏴 but have lived in Australia 🇦🇺since i was 8 (53 now) I have been back to the UK a few times over the years last trip August 2017.
My point I'm trying to say here mate is you guys over there have just as many awesome spots to see and visit as we do here in Oz, so keep getting out there and enjoying your awesome country.. You really do have your own little Gem over there. Take care and will look forward to watching more of your great videos 🇦🇺🇦🇺🍻🍻👍
I'm from the Lake District but now live in London, and I watch this all the time to help with my homesickness. Thanks so much for bringing the peace of the Lakes to all of us Liam :)
I did this walk in around 2006-07. It looks like there's a lot more infrastructure to it now. More defined. I remember being miserable as hell during the last few days on the North York moors in the rain and wind and although they're beautiful, they're nothing compared to the dales or lakes. Cheers for bringing back some great memories.
Greeting Liam from California !
I am enjoying your content . Thanks for sharing !
I did the coast to coast last year and the north york moors was one of my favourite parts! Obviously knew the lakes were going to be goregous but I was really taken aback by the moors and had some of my favourite days in that area
These videos are therapy for me
Well done. You can honestly say you've walked all over this country. From top to bottom. And now coast to coast. Another great achievement and you've got a bit of colour in your cheeks👍👍
Great video Liam. I did this with a friend 30 years ago. We started at St Bees and by RHB we had met so many others that we were a party of about 16. Some I am still in touch with now. It was probably the best journey of my life. AlsoI was fit as a butchers dog by the end. Thank you so much for sharing your walk. It brought back such great memories !
I am again and again amazed how beatiful england is. Thanks for taking us with you :)
It's a beautiful country. I'm very lucky to call it home.
Well done Liam, great achievement 👍🏻 I did the Pennine way a few years ago from north to south in 11 days....solo. I went through every emotion known to man, I even had a small nervous breakdown on the 7th day, I hadn't seen a single person in 24 hours, it plays on your mind. But I completed it and felt a new man after I recovered. Great video of your journey, keep up the great work 👍🏻👍🏻
You’re the reason I did a solo hike around the Peak District a couple weeks back. Can’t thank you enough.
My wife and I did this two years ago, I was 60 at the time. Your video captured the experience so well! I remember looking for and counting grouse in the moors to pass the time. It was an absolutely amazing trip and I salute England for having such a beautiful country!
Absolutely brilliant video… actually will give Camping a go this summer.
You can’t beat UK for some beautiful scenery 👌👌 .
9:55 Yes 👍 Liam Thank you for listening to your real fans hehehe 🤤 You’re bloomin amazing and loved very much for putting out your content. All the best to you and a big fat hug xxxx
7 days... that's amazing... took me twice that much! Well done Liam!
I did the Coast2Coast last may. Such a beautiful walk and definitively a challenge with the ups and downs! Thoroughly recommend it to anyone looking to do it, the landscapes and people are amazing and pub food after a full day of walking was incredible!
Well done Liam. I really appreciate you taking the time to film your hike:)
Your video-style is great. It's naturally relaxing and helps us to almost feel like we are coming along with you on the walk. Keep it up!
Found this by accident. What a great documentary of your trip. Brought back happy memories of doing the same trip solo a few years ago. We'll done Liam!
These endeavours make no sense if not supported by a strong and natural narration, you have both in buckets and as a result, we can be with you and enjoy these moments remotely. another superb video mate, these are rare gems.
This is an absolutely quality video Liam, loved watching it
North York Moors is best in August in my opinion when the purple heather is flowering.
I love your sense of gratitude for e'thing! And the beautiful hiking, of course! 21:49... WOW!
Envious from Canada.
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
Find myself coming back to these videos a lot. Always calming and settling remembering how simplistic life can really be.
Not only is your channel entertaining and interesting, it inspires me! Inspires me to get outside and spend more time doing the things I love. Thanks for making the content you do, and sharing your adventures with us.
I did the St Bees to Shap stretch with my, then, girlfriend back in 2010. I proposed to her just up the hill from where you camped at Ennerdale, a little further up past the Black Sail YHA. It was a real highlight and through all the places I've travelled around the world, I know that this walk will always hold a spot in my 'reel of life' memories :) My daughter is nearly 11 and, whilst my partner probably isn't the shape to be able to do the walk again, I'm hoping I can get my daughter to do the walk with me. I walk her and hour to school and an hour home now and hoping to build that up, she's done a few of the challenging hill/mountain walks in the Peaks/Lakes, so I think she will be ready next summer!
A couple of tricks to keeping kids happy that might help.
Give them the compass and a copy of the map. If they're leading the way, it will be exciting for them. Just double check every now and again.
Give them their own 'responsibilities' in camp. Keeping the porch tidy and puffing up the sleeping bags are good ones.
Nice big carrot for the end of the day. Hot chocolate and biscuits work well.
Keep them dry and keep asking questions about the route. All these help keep my son in the moment and enjoying himself.
I walked with my kids and agree about keeping them warm. Loads of snacks and loads of chat worked for me.
Hey Liam really enjoying the videos! Just wondering have you considered ever doing the hike to the UKs most remote pub,the old forge, in Scotland? I think it would make a great trip for you and it would be something I’d love to see!
Ohh interesting , will look it up, Tan Hill Inn is very popular with Coast to Coasters / C2C and they sign the Book 📖.
That was a class film lad! Making me more excited for my own adventures this summer! Can't wait to see what you have lined up next
Thanks
Excellent journey!! Thank you for sharing with us Texans!!
Wow Liam, I admire you! The UK is such a beautiful country! Well done!
Inspiring! thanks for sharing your adventures Liam. You are living proof that "After a day’s walk, everything has twice its usual value."
go on liam keep living ya dream
watched since van life 2020
This is such a well crafted film. Thank you for taking the time to make it.
gawd i wasted my 20's i should have been doing stuff like this all the time/ good on you fella always entertaining
Having moved away from Yorkshire over 10 years ago this makes me homesick, seeing all the villages in the moors
Excellent video that managed to encapsulate the attraction of this iconic walk in just 30 minutes. My wife and I are tackling it next year although in two halves!
My wife and I watched the entire episode and loved it! Much better than our American “Appalachian Trail“. New subscriber✅
Nice little trip. Yorkshire whinge at the end made me chuckle. There can be a bleak beauty to moors but it can wear out quick.
I am from India, recently had my one of the biggest exams going on in 10th grade (ps: this exam really matters for all indians)
And so i had this dream where someone was walking to a coast with a back pack..it was so beautiful, i had to search it up and on top of my recommendation i found your vid and i am so glad i found your channel it's my dream to one day travel like you just being in touch with nature the city life doesn't suit me..
Hope to one day be like you until then gonna follow your channel
Perfect place to set your tent up. Great view and love the nature. So blissful
I live in the village of Moor Row pretty much right at the start, And boy do we take the lake district for granted. Videos like this really put it into perspective. Great video!
I stumbled across your site by chance and have to say I love your content. The quality of film, sound and narration are great. Thank you for it
So great seeing your local area from an outside perspective I majorly under appreciate it
Also agree with walking on the flat and seeing little villages pubs and cafes,the best
hey liam! just wanted to drop a quick comment to day your videos are really keeping me going at the minute during my exams :’) ive been really stressed out with my a levels, but watching these are really relaxing before i go to sleep!!! been wanting to do something like this for ages and can’t wait to do it when i’m a bit older :DDD thanks for keeping my stress at bay haha, hope you’re ok wherever you are ❤️❤️ sending love
Good luck with the exams, smash em
do it, this summer straight after your exams! don't worry about doing stuff like this on your own, it forces you to meet new people. also at your age the body is so efficient and the speed of recovery is so quick you can basically do anything and with zero preparation required. good luck!
@@satanicfriedchicken1656 thank you so much!!! need that kind of motivation to keep me going :DD
@@cliveramsbotty6077 youre right!!! no time like the present + i’ve got a few months of me ahead in the summer with nothing planned 😭 always been one for the outdoors so i reckon i’ll go for it and make the most of it 😎😎 thank you for the motivation and belief in me :DD
@@ectomorph7944 Doing this sort of thing can be life changing, I hope to someday do it too.
Love your videos for the adventure and the fabulous scenery, if you get gold, that's fun, but I'll still watch them even if you don't. Thanks for showing me these fabulous parts of Tassie that I'll never get to visit
Every time I watch one of your vids I feel inspired and uplifted. By far the best YT channel I subscribed to
Liam brilliant thank you for taking us on your journey
Brilliant, well done, that’s something I would have liked to have done when much younger, I am an old timer now, but thanks to people like you we are at least able to experience a little of what it was like, thank you Liam. BTW, Whitby Fish and Chips are the best, and I say that as a Lancastrian.
A great bit of filming Liam, thank you. We did the crossing in 2010, we had brilliant weather, wore shorts and T shirts all the way. We chose the soft Southern approach, we used B&B's and hotels to ensure a good night's sleep and to get a decent meal at the end of each day.
I would like to do it all again as it was probably the best two weeks of my life, it was so enjoyable and memorable. At 73 though it is time to hang the boots up I feel.
Never hang up the boots.. shorten the walks 👍🥾⛰️🥾
This channel is so inspiring, made me take a break away on my own in nature and wild camp in the Brecon Beacons. It was everything I wanted it to be, definitely going to get away more often.
Great video, I'm leaving today from Holland and start the walk sunday.
This video sure is an appetizer.
That was brilliant Liam and well condensed into one video.
Really enjoy your travels maybe one day I'll attempt coast to coast?
Thanks again keep em coming matey.
Perhaps you could do it gradually .
Very refreshing are your videos buddy, no daft music and no whining on about mental health. Keep up the good graft fella!
Absolutely brilliant, I wish I had your courage. Amazing footage.
Looks like you had a great walk, awesome viewing as always buddy!
“I tell ya what.. these are some of the ugliest sheep I’ve seen in my life” hahahaha this was Gold. Had me in stitches 😂
a thousand thanks for this wonderful video. And no irritating background muzak which so ruins every other such video on TV the BBC being the worst offender. Just the natural sounds of sea, streams birds and wind and your interesting and informative low key commentary. A true pleasure to watch and listen to.
Another great video! Loved watching from down here in New Zealand. Can't wait to explore some of those trails when I finally make it to the UK!
Great film that Liam, nice one. No blisters either!
One of your best videos imho. Awesome, Liam! I ran the route in the 1970s. You brought back some great memories.
Thanks, Liam, your videos have got me through the tedious Easter Weekend.
Absolutely brilliant Liam, thoroughly enjoyed this, looking forward to your next adventure
So honest and refreshing to see such a video which pulls no punches..I’d get bored too of the same scenery after a while..when you’re tired it can get a bit like that! Great video! I’ll look out for more 😀
Wonderful in every way.Thank you Liam much respect from Tasmania.
