- Whats up top shaggers .. I've missed ya!
So.... here we are .. the first of two videos of basically what i saw and did on my latest outing. A 200 mile thru hike while wild camping my way through some of East Anglia's beautiful coastline and countryside.
What an epic journey it was and walking that distance is something I've never done in one trip before so I'm really happy with the achievement as well as being amazed by some of the places i passed through on my journey.
Part one is the first four days of what ended up being an awesome 12 day trip.
i averaged 17 miles a day over the 12 days which isn't the most you'd ever see but its not the least.. some of the days were a bit of a slog at the last few miles... with it being November the days are short so it meant getting up and cracking on early so i spent less time walking in the dark where your body tends to feel tired quicker.
I didn't plan any of my water or food stops or where i would camp as this way i find its more of a real adventure not knowing where you will end up and i also knew there would be shops on route... It's England after all and we are never really "surviving" out there therefore i knew i would be sweet.
As far as the camps went i would figure out around lunchtime where i would roughly end up for the evening to i would pick a feature off the map to head too to check out first.. or like you will see in the video i sometimes just stumble across cool little spots that offer me shelter and protection from the elements without even having to put my tarp up.
Anyway.... Cheers for watching and Subscribe if you like the content.

Just a little trail history "tidbit", In North America, an oddly formed tree shaped like @36:31, was actually an indigenous people's trail sign post. They would stake branches out to indicate directions of travel to mark the trade routes.
That made me laugh, "months of planning, which is pretty ironic as I don't have a plan"! Great stuff.
😂😂👊
"Situation. No change." 🤣 Love the content & your spirit. 🇺🇸💚🇬🇧
Haha cheers dude !!
I'm a volunteer for Norfolk mountain rescue. We haven't had a call out in 23 years but if you ever get stuck while your up there. Only kidding, I'm a Suffolk lad like you. Enjoyed this Craig, we have walked several parts of the Norfolk coast, it's a beautiful area. Thanks for posting.
Peddars Way blows my mind. It's pre-Roman, no one knows how old it is but it's at least 2000 years old for sure.
Great video as usual. Remember the pinewoods well, 97...
£6.50 a pint; that's crazy; bad as London prices! Great watch and good to see that coastline again
Awwww Craig is back on our screens' I shout to the Wife'.. Brilliant is her reply 🤛🏼👍🤟🏼🤍
Wicked video 📸 always a leisure watching your pleasure, of what you luv doing. Blessings sent for you're weekend 🤠 Namaste 🤍
Haha awesome mate !!! Megga ! Namaste
Imagine cops finding you with that foot powder bag though haha.. "What's this, sonny?" "Trust me officer, you don't want to open that." "Oh really?" :p
Wouldn't and would be funny at same time lol
Wait while next week lol 😂
😂😂😂
It’s my marching powder officer.😂
😂😂
Thanks for taking us all along Lad! It is truly an honour and pleasure to know you kid! ❤❤❤❤
You
Too mate awesome
To see you aswell Lee ! Thanks for everything mate 💚🔥
Great video Craig I fully enjoyed it I'm looking forward to seeing the other half of your hike thanks for sharing 👍
Just donated, your a top guy. You have served your country and now your still supporting your comrades. Top man, good luck.
Thanks brother 💚👊
Keep it up lad top notch
Excellent effort man. I always say a few words to the folks whose names are dedicated on a bench when I pass by or have a quick rest too.
👊👊
Absolutely superb first part. Thank you for putting it together 🙏
Thanks bud 💯🤙
Honestly bro, I was with you all the way... Massive fcukin REspect, and thank you so much for taking us along🖤😎👊
Thanks brother 👊👊💪
Wow, 3k and counting. That's impressive! Great work mate. 🙏👏👏👏
👊👊👊
Thanks for the post mate love your stuff
Some great fossil hunting there and if you get to Cromer there is amber!.
Bloody marvellous Mr E.A.B. Thoroughly enjoyed that and looking forward to Part deux. You just can’t get away from Dave the slug…🍻
Haha cheers Gerard mate 👊
That toddler impression cracked me up 😂😂
😂😂👊
You’re a legend for your efforts towards such a worthy cause! Veterans such as yourself are heroes. Much respect to you young fella! 👊
I also think you’d love hiking here in Tasmania! It’s a small place(a little bit smaller than Ireland), but the entire south west is uninhabited. And 10% of the population in total! But it’s not flat in many places…
Sounds amazing mate. !!
Really enjoyed watching this video! 😀🇦🇺
Thanks Jennifer !
Lovely drop 🍻
Yes Craigo!!! Loved it! Video skills are just getting better and better! 👌
I reckon ee ad dat Plough ooot booiii! 😂
💚💚👊
Well done 🎉
Paddy pimblett and Lewis capaldis love child lol. Love the vids bro
Loved watching this, recognised so much of it as we go to these places often.
Great effort. Great charity. Peddars' Way and Norfolk/Suffolk coast paths are on my to do list. As a fellow East Anglian it is almost compulsory to tick off. 😀 Six an'a half quid for a pint though...... (ouch).
Brilliant video, cant wait for the next
Cheers 👊👊
Good to see places I might never know about dude :)
cracking work mate never easy when sometimes the concrete takes up more than farm pathways or woodland but its how it goes well done on keeping the pace up and we fully understand the feeling of wanting to achieve and explore on your own we all need that from time to time
Legend Ryan mate nice one 💪👊
@@EastAnglianBushcraft Hope the bodies recovered im sure you'll have another in the belt before spring
Looking forward to this series.. Now I'm living in Norfolk (East of Diss) I'm hoping to cover some of these next year. Keep on keeping on..
Have a look at Boudicca Way between Diss and Norwich
My Home Counties, lived and worked all around these areas. Beautiful countryside and coastline
Love your videos man, been itching for you to put a new one out 🤙🏼😁

awesome vid bud, massive respect
Big love bro
Awesome video and adventure! Looking forward to part 2! 🤙
I watched this video last night, I never knew much about East Anglia, I'm from the south east /Cornwall and north east, so did my longer walks/camps in those areas. I did (with mates) the local North Downs (Guildford area), stretches of Hadrians Wall, and the entire Cornish coast path....which was amazing. Your videos bring back those memories. I'm in Illinois now, with my American girl, we walk on old railroad lines mostly, and it's not unlike East Anglia in some ways...it's flat😀👍🏴🇺🇸 Mark
Cheers Mark 👊
Will get the popcorn out for this 🍿
Great first part craig good on you for raising money for our veterans looking forward to part 2 cheers
Thanks bud !
A stonking part one transmission Chap! A huge well done for such an adventure and worry cause! You never dissapoint. Old Bean. Gotta love a drop of Beaverton.. Even at 6. 50 decimel 🤣 Can't wait for part two. Cheers Steve

Bloody love this vid, and the Norfolk scenary! Thinking of doing some of this trail from around Swaffham upwards soon!
Ah thanks mate !!!! And awesome bud 👊😎🤙
Brilliant video buddy looking forward to part 2 well done 👏
I walked to Holkham woods to camp back in August. As soon as I was into the trees I got surrounded by flies. Like around 20 bluebottles buzzing round my head. Was doing my head in. Had to head back out and camp in the dunes. Best decision ever as I watched a beautiful sunset, then got up to watch a beautiful sunrise. Great content mate.
Cheers mate ! Ah that sucks I had no dramas with any flies… I get a beautiful sunset and sunrise in the next video on the top of a cliff 🤙
Just wants to make me get out and walk . I love exploring Norfolks coastline. Can't wait till part 2 👍
Yes dude, been looking forward to it 👍Hope you're well
I’m sweet mate thanks dude hope you are too 👊🤙
My son's active atm, Home Guard QRF. Constant rear watch, always ready; exercises constantly. I so admire what you're doing, and the purpose - thank you. Also, great video!!
👊👊👊
@@EastAnglianBushcraft I forgot to mention he's a mobile MG3 gunner. With a HK416, MP7 and Glock plus ammo for all of them, with a level 3 ceramic vest. And bergen. No thanks 🥵😂
Fantastic Craig loved that mate

This is wicked. So greet to see you out there doing a big ol trip and amazing to see this part of the world from a different perspective. I can’t wait for the next episode.
Awesome
Thanks mate 👊👊
Having left Norfolk and moved abroad many years ago, this vid really stirred the nostalgia.
Used to ride Peddars Way on my old BSA B40 back during the early 80's.
Good ol' Norfolk... beautiful county.
Ahhh yes mate love the ol b40’s!
@@EastAnglianBushcraft : That they are, for sure.
There used to be a British motorcycle dealership in Dereham which specialized in ex-army bikes and that's where I used to buy my run-around hacks.
There was a group of around 10 of us used to meet up with our B40's and regularly ride Peddars way, either south of Swaffam down into the Breks or up to where you are, to the north.
Bloody Romans and their obsession with straight roads, eh ?
Tedious on foot but, bro, those long sweeping straights were great fun on a bike.
Anyway, looking forward to the next installment of your trek, all good stuff.
Stay safe, fella... and keep those hooves well powdered and dry.
Cheers !
Thats wicked mate ! 🤙🔥👏👊 cheers dude
Well done, your uploads never disappoint. Can’t believe how much you managed to tab away. Looking forward to part two you star
Cheers Sammy ! X
I hope we don't have to wait too long for it, ready for it now lol

Top man Garry 💪👊
Watching this while.tabbing on my treadmill 👍
🔥👏👊
When thanking the people for donations remember it’s not thanks lads it’s thanks guys and gals or similar because there are ladies who watch these videos.
The bag with foot powder could also be filled with water and a foot wash if below freezing temp.
It was such a big advertisement today.
There is some cheaper alternatives if you have to buy your own!!
All in all a great video for an awesome cause.
Always watch the full video.
If your stuck for water Craig. You can often find a tap in a churchyard. For the flowers. Soldier on
