- Back on the Wye again! It's been a few years since last paddling the River Wye, join us for a 3 day canoe camping trip from Hereford to Monmouth, promising a journey through stunning landscapes.
The first couple of days are a gentle meander through picturesque landscapes in England and Wales, Its serene waters flow gently, carving a path through lush valleys, dense woodlands, and charming villages. The Wye is renowned for its diverse ecosystem, supporting a rich array of wildlife and plant species.
The last day we head on down through Symonds Yat, which stands as a majestic viewpoint overlooking the picturesque River Wye. It's renowned not only for its breathtaking vistas but also for its role as a nesting site for the magnificent peregrine falcons. These awe-inspiring raptors, with their incredible speed and aerial prowess, have chosen this rugged cliff as their home. Watching these majestic birds soar through the sky, often with their distinctive acrobatic displays, is a testament to the resilience of nature and the harmonious coexistence of wildlife and humans. Symonds Yat Rock offers a unique opportunity to witness these remarkable creatures in their natural habitat, providing a glimpse into the intricate beauty of the avian world against the backdrop of the stunning River Wye landscape.
We embark on a canoe journey along the gentle currents of the River Wye which offers an immersive and exhilarating experience of the natural world. As you paddle through its meandering course, the captivating panorama of rolling hills, verdant forests, and occasional glimpses of historical landmarks unfolds before you. The river has also played a pivotal role in human history, with ancient castles, abbeys, and bridges punctuating its course.
Hope you enjoy, and if you can like & subscribe it would really help the channel.

Thank you Martin 😃
Ah, lovely time out on the river there bro. There was a tad bit of rain but this didn't dampen your appreciation any - the river sure did look a picture. It's always impressive when at the base of Coldwell Rocks and Symonds Yat Rock. I've had the pleasure of camping below there and listening to them raptors. Yeah, what a place. And beyond the rapids is special too - that whole stretch. Well, good going. Mark (Hereford)
Hi mark, haha yes! The first day was horrific wind later in the day which made for hard paddling, it was forecast for the rest of the weekend but it wasn’t too bad the majority…the rain however barely stopped, luckily it was warm enough not to matter too much.
That area around symonds yat rock is stunning, you are lucky to have camped there! I watched the ray mears episode he camped there looked amazing.
Thank you for watching 😃. Atb John
@@foresteroutdoors Ah, sounds like it was hard out of the blocks but eased up a little. Hope you get the chance in good conditions. Yeah, it's a great area around the rocks and beyond Symonds Yat to Monmouth. I camped but was warned not to by the game keeper - I was packing up. But all good. A pleasure to watch - have a cool week ahead.
Long way from Carmel and Cheese. Keep it up pal x
Haha yes mate! I’m a famous influencer now 👀😂🤦🏻♂️
Nice one for watching 💪🏻
Really enjoyed this brother 👌🏼. How many hours a day are you on the water ?. Looks like hard work 😓. What a adventure 👏
Nice one mate 😃 I forget about the first two days but the last one we got on the water about 10 ish and got off about 5ish, had the odd stop here n there but it’s a long days paddling at times. That last day we had a brekky barm first thing and nothing but the odd snack till about 7pm, silly really coz it wiped us out, but was trying to make up time
@@foresteroutdoors sounds like absolute graft pal
@@Walkingwildcampinguk it can be at times mate, but you’ve got to love it! Think of how many times you been struggling going up a peak but you keep going. There wasn’t much moving water on this river, that makes a massive difference, moving water is way easier…go with the flow 😉
Pie lid thief! Sorry whoever left them there. They are gone now. People just can't keep their hands off your stuff. :(
Hahaha they call me the Frey bentos tea leaf
