In this video I head out with Andrew Beavers for 3 days hiking & 2 nights wild camping in the Peak District National Park. Our aim is to complete the Derwent Watershed Hike which is a 40 miles circular hike over rock, moorland and hills of the dark peak area of the park. It was tough going but well worth the effort.

Stop being so hard on yourself Paul Messner. You are never too old to do these multi day hikes. And the more you do, the fitter you get and the easier they feel. Big respect to you pal, I hope it gives you confidence to do some more in future my friend. Keep up the great content
I agree, it's simply more of a fitness thing rather than age.
Yeah keep at it. My dad's 60 and drives me mad making excuses he's too old for exercise. If you are finding it a challenge then you probably need it aye 😆
I don't remember pauls channel being about multi hiking? It was about him doing a cheeky overnighter and the kit he took with him in a beautiful location. Or at least from what I always remember his channel. Multi day hiking i cant think of anything more boring personally.
It's as simple as use it or loose it.
@@niksgee what about football?
You're too hard on yourself, good sir. It's ok to not be as fast as the others in the group. Pushing yourself to keep up only turns into no fun experience for you or an injury along the way. Take it easy.
Me and my friend started going on walks every weekend and walks have now turned into hikes. We do it for our fitness but also because of how good it feels to manage such enormous accomplishments. We are no athletes and take our time but we get there. You are truly inspirational, humble and simply lovely to watch. You've shared some great advice and tips for our own hikes and what kit to bring with us. Keep doing what you're doing. You're brilliant!
Wow, that's a wonderful sight. It's like a scene that reminds me of the alien planet. The square rock on the hiking trail is unique. The sound of raindrops falling on the tent made my ears happy. Friend, thank you for inviting me to a wonderful place 😄 💕 😊 🙏
I think you two have just finally convinced me to get over this way at some point.
Love the part where you both have a chat about challenges and achievements. And hiking pace! Don’t beat yourself up - Andy wouldn’t walk with you if he didn’t thoroughly enjoy your company! What pack is that and have you both got the same pack?
My last proper backpacking trip was in 2017, the year I turned 50. Later that year, I developed arthritis in my knees, which brought my hiking days to an end. Or did it? I've been slowly building back, and your videos have been an inspiration. Heading out this weekend, actually.
Search for backwards sled drag for knee health. Game changer even for guys with knee injuries from basketball or martial arts
im in the beginning stages of arthritis in my left knee. my grandfather had arthritis and it runs down in my family unfortunately so it's inevitable to a point, but we'll find a way to keep going. i think the real damage will set in when we stop eh? ;)
Love it Paul. Do you have those moments, in the first hour or so, of 'why the hell am I doing this to myself (again)? The means (and the pains) justify the ends. Great video mate 👍
Just to add - what a spectacular walk, brilliant effort; so much respect for your self awareness of your capabilities and determination to carry on and enjoy the journey. Brilliant 👏
Just done a 35 mile 2 night 2.5 day solo wild camp and hike in the Peak District. I'm pushing 55 years old and it's a first for me. Loved everything about it apart from the blisters. They were down to a bad footwear choice.
Thank you for sharing and the inspiration!
I'm assuming night two was somewhere near Outer Edge.
Nice little adventure in some testing conditions! 2 nights/3 days is a nice amount for me as well. That water looked especially peaty 😆 thanks for sharing, including the walking past the camera and retrieving it 💪 cheers
Thanks for your amazing videos. Me and my boyfriend love watching them together, you make us laugh every time.
Can't wait to get back out there!!
I love that big square rock, best place for a quick rest and a brew
Hi Paul great video the three of us bumped into you on your walk up to snake summit great to finally meet you in person and keep up the good work and upon meeting you both I’ve also subscribed to Andy’s Chanel keep up the good work as they not only great viewing but very educational thank you
Fantastic Paul, thank you for getting out there and putting in the effort to bring us this great video. I watched both yours and Andy’s videos and it’s great to see the different styles on the same walk.
Love the slabs, it’s the grassy unmarked paths I struggle with, especially on Kinder and all the bogs on top
Excellent video. The UK has some gorgeous terrain! Thanks for sharing
Brilliant Paul, what an enjoyable video its certainly a great hike. I enjoyed your little chat with Andy, very interesting.
My knee is bad at the moment but as soon as its better I'm doing that.
All the best Paul.
Thanks.
👍
Love the look of this walk, I'll add it to the list! Completely with you when you spoke about feeling the pressure of keeping up. I much prefer solo hiking now and getting into my own stride, loads more enjoyable. Great video 🥾
That was a decent hike there Paul. You earned that beer:)
Thank you for sharing your adventure! Cheers!
Good job! A timely reminder that it's all about doing stuff, and less about the kit you do it with. More please.
I love to watch Andy’s version and then your ,you get two great perspectives. Great mini adventure well done challenging terrain and good daily distances walked. 😁👍
I appreciate you sharing the tough parts of your days with your audience, Paul. Every good adventure has them
Paul you did well to keep up with Andy, great effort. Thanks for showing us the terrain with its varied technical difficulties.
Loved the video Paul, It's a cracking walk and your beautiful footage and great commentary really make it come alive. Keep up the good work!
Good stuff and no doubt Andy kept you right. Look forward to see what other multi day trips you have planned. Atb
Good on you Paul Messner, those were pretty long days. Great to be "out" with you again. Respect from New Zealand.
Thanks Paul for all your great content! Such brilliant views! Ps the quality of these videos has really improved over the last year I’ve new watching. Keep the good work up mate 👍
A good video to watch as it has made me aware of a trail I should perhaps do, having in recent months covered the trail in different hikes over different days.
Simply awesome Paul 😊
I'm so glad TH-cam recommended your channel to me 👍😀
Such a great adventure Paul. The scenery out there is stunning. Looks like a decent and nice outdoor experience. The camp looks rock solid and cozy ;) Stay safe out there.
Beautiful hike. Great weather, looks like fun.
Leaving a like to support your channel.
Really enjoyed that mate the slightly different take on some of the filming worked really well top stuff..don't be too hard on your'e self either you did a great job its a tough route we did across some difficult terrain & you still beat me to the cars ;-).. im sure you enjoyed that beer lol..hope the aches & pains have eased..tfs pal..
That was a really great change in video format, appreciate how tough it was for you but you did it and that’s the main thing. Well done 👍
Good 3 day outing! I do like Win Hill. I imagine your ascent stats were impressive as well. Thanks for sharing!
another great video paul, good to see the trangia out, its so light and ideal for the multi day hike. be proud of your achievement mate as 39 miles would have felt like 100 miles with all the gear to carry am sure.
Nice to see you on a more challenging walk Paul. Good luck with everything
Nice route, done most of it in parts never thought of doing it as a loop! Its a tough old slog alright, since doing multi day hikes, i have a new found respect for people doing things like the C2C or CWT
great video. thanks for your honesty Paul, good job on the filming despite being so tired!
Great video, really enjoyed this one, I hope you are up for more of these kind of videos not that I don't appreciate the effort you put into your review vids but this one really hit the spot for me and has got me fired up for a multi day trip myself.
Enjoyed this Paul. Loved the chat with Andy, very interesting.
Absolutely brilliant video👍
Great video! I'm heading to the peaks soon and you have given me some inspiration on places to visit. You have gained a new subscriber 🙂
Great hike that buddy. Totally agree about the distance, 3-4 days is perfect for crushing 50 odd miles. Great video as always 🙌
Keep em coming !
Taking on a multi day hike after not doing one for a while can be exhausting. The feeling of accomplishment when you're done is so good! It might feel difficult while in the process of completing the trip, but at the end of the day you won't regret stepping up to the challenge.
I live in the US, but I love watching your videos because I enjoy seeing terrain in other parts of the world that I've never explored before. So interesting to see the characteristics of the land, and geology in this District. I have never hiked in an area where there's domestic sheep just hanging out with you! Not only am I enjoying what you share in your videos, it's actually been fascinating to see this part of the world from a hiker's perspective.
Great achievement, that. You did great. I enjoyed the chat you had with Andy too. Love this one Paul. ATB
Very well done Paul and Andy 👍👍
Well done 👏 Paul.
That was some achievement, you made it well done, my days of doing that are gone forever I'm lucky to be able to do 100mtrs now I even started breathing heavily as you were going up the hills. Thanks for sharing.
Hey Paul, if you're struggling with knee pain with these hikes it may be that your glutes are a bit weaker/inactive but age may certainly play a role. I find that doing light glute exercises *regularly* like reverse lunges or glute bridges takes the stress away from the knees and loads the weight onto your glutes/hips instead. Hope that might be helpful!
I love multi day hiking , incredibly hard on body and mind but you learn about yourself and see parts many haven't ventured, well done mate
Awesome video mate!! Highly enjoyed this one🤟🔥
Great effort, well done Paul. That made for a great vid👍👍
Some interesting conditions for it, looks a great walk and well done for completing it.
2 Cool guys!!! the route looks great. Well done on keeping up with Andy, he's built like a whippet
Thanks for the video and hello from Finland! Great views you got there! I love to hear about the gear you use but I would also love to see you do these multiple nights trips. You could also tell a bit about the geology etc. It seems so different from what I'm used to see here. For example those stones you filmejä how/why they are formed and when. I'd also love to see you film a hike trip in Finnish Lapland one day. We have many beautiful National Parks here. 😉 Just keep doing what you do, it will get easier the better fit you are in. I'm middle aged myself and I wish to have many years ahead of hiking/camping. 😊
❤️ another great video! Looking forward to next big hike.. learn so much from these
The natural beauty was just tremendous ....
Superb vlog both , really enjoyed views and commentary 👏🍺
Awesome workout paul . Great views and so cool to have you're own personal trainer. Well earn beer there. 👍
Great Job Paul! Super video. Deffo one I’d love to get done.
Well done Paul.
Those slabs to Brown Knoll are a fairly recent addition, it used to be just a VERY boggy path where you could sink in up to your knees in places. That was grim!
Really enjoyed that. Two great guys. Well done buddy.
Well done need to see more like this 👏
Great video Paul, love that area, done most bits of it but would like to tie it all together. Don't complain about the slabs, the pre slab alternative was hard work up there 🤪😂 TFS David. And don't be hard on yourself! Good effort that, the highs and lows of multi day hikes 🙂
WELL DONE MATE!!!
We always used to walk behind our slowest on our yomps. The person will still do their best, probably better as their soul isn't as destroyed. (you can always push a bit if time is tight etc) but afterall if you're all together then that's how it should be and planned as such time wise. Small tip, neither of you use your walking poles efficiently either accending or descending. Definitely something to look into.
Thanks as always for the videos and best wishes for the next adventure
Great video! To take it to the next level, get in shape!
Well done fella : that stretch from BL H is a real killer no paths just graft 🤣 👏
Good to push yourself Paul every now and then. 39 mile. Dude that's hiking some great terrains.
The night stops are strange places to sleep. I guess on a clear night it may have been more terrific I imagine. Yes the rain, the wind kept you stressed. You done it along side your mate good job men:)
From Craig.
Really enjoyable to watch. Thanks!
Enjoyed that a lot ...thanks .
Great one this mate, well done.
Awesome video. Really enjoyed watching it. See a couple of places I have been and it’s made me want to go back again
Some hike, well done. 👏 I wish Donegal had those slabs. It's all walking through bog and heather.
Loved the views, camera work and the fact that you made me feel as if I was on the hike! Top marks too for saying you were knackered and taking Ibubrofen...I could really relate to this 🤣
Great video, and you did really good Paul.👍
Hi Paul glad I watched your kit video first, that's a good achievement almost 40 miles and not over the easiest terrain.
Dave B. Thailand.
Really enjoyed this video, only an hour away for me. Walked most parts of that route but certainly not all together like you have. Well done.
Paul, the last couple of weekends I've done day walks on Bleaklow & Howden Moor it's tough going without a decent path to follow, so good effort & the bonus is you don't have to do it again. ATB Rob
Really nice journey. Cheers!
Thanks for this one . It's 1.30am and I'm at work on a meal break . This will see me through till 6 and home time.
Well done Paul, really respect your honesty about your struggles - well done for slogging through it and getting to your destination. Great vid.
No two humans are the same. Even at my most fit, I had trouble with inclines. (Having come from flat land, maybe not surprising) I could run, bike, cross-train-but put me on a steel hill and it was huffing and puffing all the way. The older I get the more I realize that it’s the journey-not the pace. It’s not a race. There will always be someone faster, fitter, better-SO WHAT! You did it! And I am super impressed and proud of you.
Your videos are a treat. Thank you !
Time to go camping. With your host Paul Messner.
Cracking video Paul and well done, that looked a really hard 3 day slog, I couldn`t do it for sure. Cheers Pal 😀
Another great video, Paul. What a great hike and well done for sticking it out!
So far I've only actually managed to get one-nighters in but hoping to get a two-nighter sorted a bit later this year. Hoping to make it in winter. I'm in Australia, so tentatively planned for August.
I don't think I'm even remotely aiming for 40 miles at the moment though! haha.
Ey up Paul 👍👍👍….. Very well done with this one…. Brilliant achievement… Really enjoyed this video…. Nice one 👍….
You'll allways get a like from me Paul, another cracking vid. Yes multi days can be very testing on the fitness but your a trooper mate and you nailed it. Classic case of hare and tortoise. That is a classic walk and a real tester on the fitness. Well done mate.
Looked a cracking outing! Good to see you and Andy together, at least one person I can understand in the video 😉😂
what a fantastic video paul. made me smile getting to the top of mam tor and seeing im not the only one who visits when its windy.
Very rare I’m up there and it’s calm 😂
A great effort and well done. Need to be careful not to overdo it though if you’re having troubles with your knees. I overdid thing myself, carrying too much weight on boggy ground and then going out again with a heavy load before I had fully recovered and I ended up with a torn miniscus. Doctors don’t advise surgery due to risks of arthritis and now 20 months later I’m still waiting for it to fully heal.
Hi Paul. Just got back from my first 3 day solo camp in the mountains. It was beyond exhausting, I could barely move at the end tbh, but I'd been watching your videos and it definitely helped me prepare for it! thanks mate
well done mate 👏
Being short and stocky myself, I always was jealous of the tall guys in my unit with their long legs. A 35 mile hump with packs and gear was a stroll for them, while I literally jogged the entire way. No sympathy in the Marines though, you're there, you do it and congratulate yourself upon completion. You're doing and have done what a large percentage of the other hikers/campers haven't, and you tacked on a few more miles running up and down for your camera. You deserve two beers!
Good to see Beavo putting you through your paces Paul, looked a good backpacking trip. C'mon the slabs. 😜 Can you see yourself doing more long distance stuff?
In Australia a "slab" is a box or carton of 24 beer cans. Something to think about when you're complaining about slabs. 🙂
@@landzender that's a decent slab mate. 🍻
The whole point of walking together is actually walking together. Your mate wouldn’t be my choice of hiking companion tbh. Keep up the great videos Paul 👌🏽👌🏽
3 days 40 miles over that terrain …. Ouch !! On the porridge make a liddl reflectix pouch/ coozie pour in the hot water mix and slip it in there and wait ten minutes you’ll have piping hot perfect porridge👍👍 great video as always Thsnks for sharing your journey 👍👍
Hey Paul. Great video and even better effort put in there. Psychologically it is no mean feat to be playing catch up all the time but you gritted it out. Am sure that beer was downed pronto!
Well done Paul :) you should be proud of yourself! It’s difficult when your companion is faster than you, I pretty much always end up walking on my own when doing big walks in the hills. Your body will adapt to doing multi day treks :) so don’t fret! Strangely I struggle more with the slab and sloth surfaces 😅 I slow down for the smooth and then really enjoy having to pick my way through rough ground, gives me something to concentrate on!
Love all of your videos! I always have my eyes peeled for the next one on this channel or your other channel :)
I was hiking and three elderly women surprised me, as I pooped in the woods and laughed stuped about me. 🥶🥵 Was that fair, what do you think ???
Marvelous country, inspiring video. Cheers.
