- Spectacular wild camp on Chinese Wall, a rocky crag 2000 feet up on the northern edge of kinder Scout in the Peak District.
Amazing location perched on the top of the crag with fantastic views all round, a perfect opportunity to use my drone to show the true beauty of the northern edge of Kinder Scout
He's back, the lad of lads, the king of hiking, the ayatollah of wild camping, our Pat.
Yes great to be back up on kinder, the best place in the world, all the best Pat
@@patrickdickinson6492 I might go this Saturday, storm permitting.
There is something exceptional about your videos.. The ways it's filmed, the locations, your charisma. All packed neatly into a brilliant video. I take my hat of to you. Absoulety fantastic.
Wow such a lovely comments, so kind of you, makes it all worthwhile, thanks Pat
I agree. Couldn't have put it better myself. TH-cam is fairly laden with the grotesque, so Pat's videos bring a welcome respite.
a Wainwright for the 21st century - Patrick you are a genius - thank God you didn't go sleepwalking! - seriously high quality footage thanks
Thanks Paul, yes life on the edge, best place to be, thanks Pat
The drone footage really puts the Scale of Kinder in to perspective such vast landscape. As always Pat great video.
Yes such a wild but beautiful place up there, thanks Pat
@@patrickdickinson6492 you doing anymore from your pub Patrick?
AMAZING on so many different levels. You are one FIT individual and one of the best TH-camrs. Your content is 100% better than anything on TV. Looking forward to your next journey. Thank you!
Very kind of you to say Susan, you did, nt hear me puffing, on the way up Fairbrook, such a beautiful area, thanks Pat
stop admiring his body Susan! :-)
Another well put together video. Much better than the over dramatized ridiculously staged television shows. Thank you for another fine trip.
Very nice of you to say, thanks Pat
A new video from you never fails to spread a bit of happiness. Thank you Pat 👍🏻
That's great to hear, thanks David, all the best Pat
Putting it bluntly....Patrick you a bloody amazing and will i'm sure go down in history. I'm now 82 years and I'm lucky to be here considering my lifes activities but none can compare with you. Looking over the edge of chinese wall and the walk to get there made me feel quite queezy. Best wishes and please keep safe.
6 and really nice comments, I like to push the boundaries occasionally, worth it for the adrenaline and feeling, what a great day, all the best Pat
I love the way you say where 'we've' just camped :) It actually feels like that watching one of your videos. Your obvious passion for wild camping (as well as tree climbing and exploring etc) is what makes all of your vlogs so addictive. You don't just show us what you've done, you take us along with you. Well done Pat, another incredibly well crafted and presented adventure.
Thanks Gary and it's great to have you along on my adventures. I really enjoy making these videos every part from the initial idea, the filming, and then the final editing, all enjoyable, all the best Pat
Amazing! The Peak district looks like Middle Earth and at night just as scary.
Thank you so much Pat for these videos.
Yes Rob the Kinder Plateau is a one off sort of place, loved by many, all the best Pat
Makes me think of Weathertop
You've gotta Love Pat, His video's are the best ! Amazing footage, Camera shots and Detailed information about where he is, Sucj a knowledgeable guy. Thanks for taking us along Pat Excellent video 10/10 💯👍💥🏕💥🏕

Great to have you along on my adventure up on Kinder Scout, my favourite place, thanks Pat
@@patrickdickinson6492 Thanks Pat👍👍
The Legend continues, thanks Pat , great video
Thanks Craig, nice of you to say, thanks Pat
Great vid Pat,well done.I personally love the sound of rain on the tent,sends me to sleep every time.
Yes agree Robert, gentle rains OK, not sure about wind and driven rain, all the best Pat
You said it, absolutely stunning Patrick., but also wild and terrifying that night. I think you deserve a medal for that one. Very brave.
Thanks for kind comments, I loved it up there, bit of adhrenalin flowing at times, but amazing, all the best Pat
Oh joy! How I have missed your adventures, Patrick! It's so good to see you, mate! I'll shut up and watch now.
Thanks, my videos are spread out, but hopefully worth the wait, all the best Pat
@@patrickdickinson6492 try and pitch your tent on mount Snowdon this time of the year 😂😂
Didn’t think your footage could get any better, then you give us this. Absolutely stunning Pat. Well done 👍
Thanks Rich, it is a amazing area, north edge of Kinder, can, t go wrong really, thanks Pat
What amazing views! When you go to places like that, it must make you feel it's so good to be alive, and that you're on top of the world. Really stunning, and a great video.
Exactly Graham, definitely alive when up there, such a amazing place, thanks Pat
Beautiful Britain, thanks for the lovely video, I used to camp in the Lake District in the 1950-60s. I have been all over the USA sinI moved here in 1978 and there are some fabulous places to camp, but I still miss the Lakes,Scotland ,the coast and moors of Britain.Its the rain and wind that makes a good camping adventure.
Thanks George, yes if it's rain and wind, you can,t beat the moors of England, haha, you have some amazing places in the US, the Great Canyon for one, all the best Pat
It's been a few years since I went up Kinder. A special place.
Really cheered me up.
Thanks a lot.
Hope it brought back happy memories, all the best Pat
Great to see the new video the drone work on your channel really looks good it all makes for great viewing pat on the back for Patrick 👍👍
Yes the drone really adds to the filming, very pleased with it, thanks Pat
beautiful spot pat, we are blessed to have such locations around the country, thank you for highlighting them in your video,s.
Yes just beautiful, take it for granted a lot of the time, we are so lucky to be able to camp at these wild places, thanks Pat
I'm watching this in Saudi Arabia and it's still a couple of months before I'm home and watching this video is just the lift I need to banish another bout of homesickness. I remember standing on that bridge at the start and end of Pat's great video and counting to 50 while my daughters went and hid in the woods for another game of 1, 2, 3 - in! They've cut all the conifers down now probably to plant broad leaf saplings but fantastic memories and a fantastic video - Thanks Pat!!!
Hi and glad it brought back memories, that's always great when I hear that, not sure why they cut all the trees down, looks a right mess, very wet at the moment, you are probably in a better place, all the best Pat
Hi pat
As always a great film, reminds me of when my dad used to take me up kinder 40 years ago. I think I was about 12 or 13, brings back happy memories thanks pat
Cheers Dave
Hi David, a great place and glad it brought back memories, all the best Pat

Nicole, such kind words, love making the videos, makes me feel alive these great locations, thanks Pat
Watching this in front of a warm fire, glass of whisky in hand, was sublime. Thanks for another belter, Pat!
What could be better warm fire and whiskey, all the best Pat
Always happy to see another new one of your videos, It's like being with you on your adventures so thanks for sharing.
It's great to have you along Mark, thanks Pat

Your from the other side, but we both enjoy the hills between, thanks Pat
Top campsite there sir, always a pleasure coming along.ATB👍👍👍
Yes amazing location Stuart, all the best Pat
Mate that looks my idea of heaven I don't go camping or hill walking anymore as the wife's disabled watching these videos is my way of escaping for a wee bit glad I found ur channel
Hi William, sorry about your wife, but it's great to have you along on my adventures, all the best Pat
What an AMAZING place to put a tent!!! Wow!

Happy to hear that, I like to think all my viewers are actually sharing the camping experience with me, it does feel like everyone is with me, and so pleased it comes across like that...... thanks Pat
Great stuff pat your a lucky man having all that beautiful scenery on your door step I'm from Lincolnshire & it's flat & boring 👀👍👌👏👏
Thanks Darren, yes we sort of take it for granted what we have on our doorstep, thanks Pat
A magical little movie from the King of Kinder, thanks for letting us tag along.
Great to have you along, Jeffrey, all the best Pat
Absolutely love your vids, brave though pitching that close to the edge! Well done, you produce a cracking insight on what most of us never experience, like your cooking as well 👍
Thanks Peter, love these amazing sites, love the adrenaline as well, thanks Pat
Thanks for bringing us on your adventures. This is real camping
Your very welcome to come along David, thanks Pat
Nice to see a bit of snow! The footage is lovely with the drone :)
Yes the drone really showed the area up in all it's beauty, just a bit of snow in the night, couple of weeks ago this, I dare say we had quite a bit more last week, thanks Pat
What an incredible pitch & spot with mighty views. Amazing 😊
Yes one of my most amazing pitches, right on the edge, but there’s many more, just got to find them……thanks Pat
Beautiful footage Pat, looks like you had a rough night though. Thank you for another interesting and exciting video. All the best!
Thanks Tom, a bit windy but not too bad, all the best Pat
Thankyou very much Patrick. You enrichen our lives with the great content you have in your videos. A night spent with you out wild camping is indeed a very good night. Thanks for sharing, and all the best to you and your family from Denmark.
Lovely to hear from you in Denmark, and great to have you along on my adventures, all the best Pat
Done a few climbing routes up there, a long time ago. Seem to remember one called Hong Kong Arête being a bit exposed an hairy, as the wind got up whilst I was leading it. Good times : ) Thanks for that Patrick, I really enjoyed seeing it again.
Hi Nicholas, yes a lot of climbs in the area, and some look really exposed, hope it brought back memories, all the best Pat
Just an all round great Yorkshire bloke. Something about being in your virtual company that just can’t be topped. The Guru. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge and skill pal.
Hi Dean, this was a amazing place to camp, such a beautiful but wild place, looking forward to getting back up there soon, all the best Pat
"Bewdiful" - Patrick Dickinson.

Thanks Jay, beautiful wild northern countryside, so lucky to live on its doorstep, all the best Pat
There's something very life affirming and uplifting about Pat's videos amid the current general insanity in the UK. Thanks so much for your wonderful films, Pat. Can't wait to get back into our beautiful national parks.
Thanks John, having to vary my content at the moment, but I,am sure we,LL be back up in the hills soon, thanks Pat
That was a wild one!
Stunning scenery and camera work to show it all off, too.
Thanks so much and take care.

Welcome return for your videos Pat. Keep the good work up , as your passion is infectious.
Thanks Brian
Making good use of your drone I see Patrick! Great video as usual! :)
Yes, what the drone is best for, showing this beautiful area up in its true glory, thanks Pat
It's always great when I get a Patrick Dickinison video in the mailbox. Stunning drone footage. I've been on a few wild and woolly camps too. It rained so hard once it was deafening, I had to shout to a guy that was hanging only about 10 feet away. It lasted all night, and we were worried about flash flooding in the ravine we were in. But it was fun, and great fun telling the tale!
Hi Doug yes if we visit these wild areas, then we have great stories to tell over the years. Amazing spot this, on top of the world, all the best Pat
These PRC teratorial land grabs are getting out of hand now, great video patric , stunning drone shots , always a treat .
Glad you enjoyed it Mick, all the best Pat
Thank you for taking me with you Patrick. I always look forward to your new videos. Good to see you looking so well my friend.
Yes feeling fine and great to be back up on Kinder, thanks Pat
Great to bump in to you again last week mate - absolute pleasure :)
Yes nice to see you as well Calvin, not underground I, am afraid, but such a beautiful place, all the best Pat
Hi Pat, Just to say that the event at Bramall Lane Bridge that we discussed is going ahead on Sunday March 22nd. Our group also has a meeting at Hallam University the day before which you would be more than welcome to attend. On the Sunday I'd be delighted if you'd unveil the historical signage we are installing. If you still have my contact details please feel free to ask any questions and hopefully I'll hear from you soon mate, all the best, Calvin :)
Great video Patrick, you are becoming an expert with that drone well done, and what a location ..... fantastic
Thanks Ian, yes amazing location, thanks Pat
Only on 34 seconds and already 1 like...
I got the first comment though🙂
Hi Patrick.
The drone footage is fantastic.
Wow, cracking location.
Thanks Paul yes amazing spot to camp, known about it for ages, and glad I finally got to camp there, all the best Pat
The drone adds perspective to this.
Thanks for sharing
Great Video Patrick
Thanks Michael, really shows up the true beauty of the landscape, thanks Pat
What a great spot, I can see why it's one of your favorites. The drone footage is spectacular. Even red ale running in the streams. Who could ask for more? I hope you got some sleep last night.
Hi Philip, yes a amazing location, thanks Pat
What a beautiful country we live in, so so lucky and a fantastic video that gave detail on everything you do.
Thanks Elliot, like you say just beautiful, thanks Pat
Class my friend x
Thanks appreciate your kind comments, thanks Pat
I just loved everything except the porridge. 😆 Thanks for shearing your fantastic adventures.
Do you know I can't stand porridge either but if Pat eats it then I am going to learn to enjoy it.
Can, t beat hot sticky porridge, puts a nice lining on your belly, better than your musella stuff, thanks Pat
Nice one Pat. Found that place by accident last March. Got “uncertain of my position” in cloud whilst walking the skyline. I’ll never learn.😁. Finished up walking 30 miles.😂😂😂
Hi Keith, great location, not bad in summer but totally different in winter, get things wrong up here and you could end up in Manchester, not Sheffield, all the best Pat
@@patrickdickinson6492 I remember walking up on Bleaklow back in the eighties in foggy low vis conditions and ended up doing something like that? I was heading from Yellow slacks at the back of Old Glossop towards Ironbower Moss with the intention of walking back to Hadfield along the Longdendale trail. I somehow or other ended up emerging at Slippery Stones at the back of Ladbower Reservoir. Once you are up on that plateau in fog it is as featureless as a desert. Thank God for smartphone GPS these days as you can get an instant location fix. Do you remember 'the Bogtrotters' from the Sheffield side?
Stunning nature and landscapes.Thank you for sharing such a beauty with us.
Yes Slaven, such a beautiful place, thanks Pat
Great opening Patrick! Pasta & wind follows. Quite stunning, from my warm living room! EEE, thass has not nesh is thee?
Love the wild outdoors and weather, all adds up to a great adventure, all the best Pat
Only just found this video of yours. A truly amazing place to wild camp and thank you for sharing the beautiful views of parts of Kinder Scout that I've never seen.
Hi Richard yes certainly a memorable and exciting wild camp this one, did keep thinking was it such a good idea with the wind howling round the tent, but that’s what made it so exciting . Looking forward to sharing more adventures up Kinder Scout with you next year……..thanks Pat
Hard core wild camping, great film Pat, real intresting and I enjoyed the drone stuff. Has the drone got auto, its a great addition to your films.
Thanks for sharing
Hi Wayneo, the drone is super clever, tracks me, goes off on its own, amazing, made for a location like this, thanks Pat
What an amazing place Patrick..good job you don't sleepwalk..fantastic
Yes Derek, like a eagles nest up there, thanks Pat
Absolutely fabulous vlog of The Chinese Wall. Thanks Patrick for another beautifully filmed vlog. Great drone shots.
Thanks Malcolm, kind of you to say, thanks Pat
Great footage. Awesome camp site. Great video. Really nice job with the drone.
Thanks, appreciate those comments thanks Pat
Another great wild camp very dramatic landscape keep up the good work
Yes such a beautiful area, my favourite, thanks Pat
Great drone footage. Shows the beauty of the northern side of kinder scout 👍
Yes best part of the Peak District this, thanks Pat
Another great video Patrick, great to see you out and about again. It’s nice to get away from everyone for some peace and quiet. Keep up the great work 👍
Yes a great place for peace and quiet and solitude up there, thanks Pat
Nice one, Pat.
For music festivals and wind swept rocky crags, ear plugs are a must.
All the best.
Yes the ideal companion, for both locations, thanks Pat
I love the beating elements of camping. I'm not into camping as such. I like winter fishing. It's such a buzz when the weather is bad and you're tucked up warm and dry.
Yes when it’s wild and cold outside it’s such a great feeling that you are warm and secure in your tent……thanks Pat
Another cracking video Pat. Thanks so much. All the best, Steve ⛺️🥾🐑👍🏻
Your very welcome Stephen, thanks Pat
Great video good to see you out again, and the drone footage is fantastic Thanks for sharing Patrick. 👍😊
Thanks and great to be back up on Kinder, thanks Pat
Hi Pat, thanks for sharing your excursions with us, for me you do what I only can dream about. Keep it up, kind regards Charlie.
Hi Charlie, I know how things can be, but its great to have you along with me, all the best Pat
Lovely video, just how I remember kinder Scout, cold and wet, but beautiful
Hope it brought back memories Serge, not changed much, thanks Pat
I too really like the drone footage - it really helps convey the beauty of the area.
Yes Dave perfect piece of kit to show the area in all its beauty, thanks Pat
Patrick Dickinson I’ve always wanted to get onto Kinder but somewhere in my past a fear has been set in my mind. Your videos help me appreciate what I’m missing. I’m working on facing my personal challenge(s) and hope to get up there this year. Thanks again.
Wow words escape me ,you are doing stuff the rest of us can only dream of with no ,BS thank you .what a amazing location and what amazing real world wild camping.thank you again with proper life saving tips as always you are legendary.
Must be one of my most spectacular locations to camp, thanks Pat
Great post and love the drone footage really does give a feel of the wonderful Kinder
Thanks Danny
4 season camp. I love a solo when it rains. Something very relaxing about it. But not good in the morning 😂 great vid as per Pat. Loving the drone footage. That follow me function is great. I could never get mine to work. Nice adaptation of the guylines too 👍 it’s great to see you back out in your natural habitat. Hope to see many more. Preferably with decent weather and a face mask 😷 😝 🇨🇳 I think the uk has served its time regards to the awful conditions. Fingers crossed. Thanks for taking us along. Atb. 👍
Hi Andy, yes great location and not too bad weather, so many great spots to camp up on Kinder, each time I go up there is somewhere new to camp. Just getting used to the drone, it seems very clever, a lot more cleverer than me, its even started telling me what it wants to do.The follow me is great when it works, some times I trot off only to find the thing hovering were I left it, luckily there is nobody about to hear me swearing at a strange object hovering in the sky , other times I think it is not following me and glance back to find it stood behind me I get the feeling its saying " what you looking at I know what I,am doing "
Spring is not far away, all the best Pat
Patrick Dickinson ha. Sounds sinister. I’m looking forward to seeing more drone footage as you always seem to pick great locations. I might try to get down kinder way this year. It’s been a while. Atb. 👍
Great videos, Pat. Really enjoying them. Hope to bump into you one day. I do a lot of exploring around West Yorkshire on my push bike. Looking forward to being able to get out there again. Wonderful part of the country. Stay safe, Jason.
Hi yes I think we are all looking forward to getting back out, hopefully July 4 may be when we can stay out overnight, and the green light for wild camping, all the best Pat
Wonderful place & your an amazing guy Pat. Love the drone footage ! Thank you for sharing👍
Great to have you along John, all the best Pat
You are just a class act pat .long may you continue 👍
Hopefully for many years yet, thanks Pat
Stunning Patrick. Perhaps your best ever. Love all your wild camp videos and working through them all again as I’m recovering from a busted leg. Hopefully back in the high hills by summer.
Sorry to hear about the leg, hopefully you, ll be OK soon, amazing place up on Kinder, thanks Pat
Incredible terrain. Great video. The drone footage really enhances the whole video.
Yes unbelievable landscape, not far from Sheffield, all the best Pat
It always makes me smile watching your videos thankyou pat
Thanks Shanelle, nice that I brought a smile to your face, thank you, Pat
Can only echo other people's comments. Great video in great scenery. Many thanks.
Thanks to you as well Alex, all the best Pat
Another great video me and my other half are both big fans. Our valentines evening entertainment with a takeaway.
Thanks Sarah, very kind of you to say, I love making the videos, especially with comments like this, thanks Pat
Excellent; with the aerial footage from the drone delivers photography that would rival a BBC documentary!
Thanks Chris, really shows the area up in all its splendour thanks Pat
Brilliant, thanks so much for taking us all along; you captured the outdoor "wild camp" spirit perfectly. Cheers Wayne
Glad to have you along Wayne, thanks Pat
What a fabulous location for a camp! As always your drone footage is excellent. Thanks Pat!
Hi Pete, yes one of my best pitches, like a eagle's nest up there...... thanks Pat
Great video Patrick,you are a great inspiration to us off a certain age thank you
And a good age to be, thanks Pat
Still catching up on your back catalogue Patrick, this time from hospital bed.
It's 30 years since I was on Kinder Scout and to see it again was fantastic. With two buggered hips I doubt if I will get up there again.
I thoroughly enjoyed seeing your camp on Chinese Wall. It brought back happy memories!
Sorry to hear your predicament, but it's coming to us all at some point. Yes pleased to say Kinder Scout is still as beautiful as ever, been up there today for a rece, and looking for camping sites, once you done the initial climb which nearly killed me, the rest is easy, all the best with the hospital treatment..... thanks Pat
