- Day 9 and I am up against it if I'm to get back on schedule after finishing at Clovelly previously. My plan is to make it as far as Morwenstow via Hartland Point and Hartland Quay. Little did I realise just how hard this stretch of coastline was going to be.
I've been waiting for days for this next section of your walk to appear and have enjoyed every second of your journey so far, but particularly this day's hike. Wow Paul, your drone footage is incredible, especially the bit as you approach and fly over Black Church Rock. I have to remind myself that you are doing all of it yourself and don't have a film crew with you; it's THAT GOOD! Thank you for showing me a different angle of perhaps my favourite section of the SW coast path. Cannot wait for your next video to pop up!!!!
Hello Sue. That’s an amazing message. Thank you. I’m glad you are enjoying the videos. I have loved walking and recording every step of my walk so far and am enjoying be able to share it with you all. Thanks again.
@@pilgrimpaul7798 no, thank YOU for giving me the best TH-cam viewing I have seen in a long while. Good luck with your continued walking (and video making!) I hope to follow in your footsteps very soon. Having only done the whole Cornish section and bits of the rest, I am itching to piece it all together now. If you need any help when you get round to the mid Cornwall section where I live, give me a shout! (PS I'm glad you aren't doing a section today in this heavy rain!!!)
It sounds like you have done most of it already Sue. Thank you for the offer, if I need any local knowledge when I get further into Cornwall I will be sure to ask for your advice. Thanks again.
Why has it taken me so long to see this? This is epic stuff and deserves so much more exposure. Fabulous, thank you.
Hi Mike, thank you for watching and taking the time to leave such a nice comment. I really appreciate it. I hope you enjoy the rest of the videos.
Lovely video - what a beautiful stretch of coast, thank you 🙏
Thank you. That was a hard day. I was so tired by the time I got into my tent. The views always keep you going though.
Excellent drone footage
Thank you ☺️
I stumbled across the day one video yesterday and now have binge watched right up to day 9. Great use of music throughout.
I've only done a 3 day walk from Plymouth to salcombe with my dog plus lots of day walks in various places . Just shows you don't need to travel far to have an adventure.
That’s great, I’m glad you have been enjoying them. It won’t be long now until I’m back on the path. Plymouth is where I am from originally, but I haven’t walked much on the path beyond Wembury before. Are you planning to do more of it?
Epic drone shots mate story telling is an art and this was spot on. Great choice of music and some light humour too. That not the church that’s sheep 😆
Thanks Shaun. I think the effects of exhaustion had kicked in at that point and that made me laugh 😂
Nice to see you back Paul. I won’t be on that section now until maybe March/April.treated yourself to an early Christmas present with the drone? Great addition. Looking forward to the next video, keep em coming, kev
Hi Kevin. I doubt I’ll be back until spring either. I’m glad you like the drone footage. It was more a birthday and Christmas present to myself 😂
Day 10 and 11s videos are available now. Thanks
Paul, fantastic views from the drone
Looked like a long days walk, but the views definitely give you that energy to keep walking to find out what’s next
Loving the blog 😊
Hi Ant. Yes it was a tough day. The pain is soon forgotten though and my memories of that day are fond ones. Thanks for watching.
Hey Paul, great video. The drone footage takes your vlogs, literally, to another level! Was on this section just two days ago, and we also wild camped on route to Bude, (film uploading later today), and was astonished when you said the next section was fairly flat! My thighs are still burning now, so for the benefit of Hartland virgins, I can totally refute this statement!! Its an amazing piece of coastline and probably our favourite section around these parts, having moved to North Devon less than a year ago. Good luck with the remainder of your walk, atb, the Glum Hiker.
I'll def give your video a watch, it will be interesting to see your take on it. Im glad you like the drone footage. When I looked at the map the section between Speke's Mill Mouth and Welcombe Mouth looked ok but the rest of that stretch was hard.
Great video! Beautiful drone shots and I enjoy your updates as you walk. Looking forward to getting to this stretch from westward to bude but may wait until spring now to get more daylight as I’m a slow walker.
Thanks Callowin. Like you I will probably wait until the spring before I take on another section, or at least just take on smaller day walks. Thanks for watching.
Wow, amazing views along your journey. Amazing days walk 👍🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻👍🏻
It certainly is spectacular. I was fortunate with the weather which helps show it off to its best.
Get on Paul. Probably the best video yet! Beautiful bit of coastline. Amazing drone work at 6 and 17 minutes with really good choice of music. Glad to see you're having a good time. P.S. I think they were swallows.
Thanks Jon. I love flying the drone but I’m still at the stage where I hold my breath until it’s back safely on the ground.
@@pilgrimpaul7798 I bet. Some of those shots over the water must have been terrifying. You wouldn't get it back if it ditched there. Although maybe you could get a plaque put up, like for the American bombers
@@jonathanprice1507 I suppose that’s what insurance is for.
Nice vlog, very enjoyable, thanks Paul
Thank you very much.
Well done walking this long and challenging section. Absolutely beautiful drone shots! And you have chosen the perfect sound tracks to it. I have had lunch at that round wooden table on my walk from Hartland Quay to Morwenstow. And I nearly jumped in my chair when you early on said you thought this stretch would be fairly flat 😃 And I though you were using very much time stopping and admiring the views considering the (to me) challenging walk ahead ;-) I remember Hartland Quay - Morwenstow partly as a rollercoaster, but luckily not too long 😃
Thank you Torunn. That round table was a beautiful spot. I must have misread the map, there were some flat stretches but also a series of massive climbs. I think if I walked that section again I wouldn’t spend any time flying my drone and would just keep walking. Make sure you check out Love Sundays video on the week end, there maybe a special guest!!
@@pilgrimpaul7798 I am glad you spent time flying your drone. I loved the shots. 😃The area is wild, remote and beautiful. I subscribe to Love Sundays, and I will absolutely watch the next one. Thank you for the tip 😃
Some good miles today Paul the drone does let you see a completely different view of the trail 👣 you probably did wise dropping down a bit to camp you just never know on the coast. Atb daz
Thanks Daz. I was so tired that night that I could have slept in a hedge 😂
Love your calm easy going manner and awesome video making skills - I really feel like I'm walking with you!
Looking to do some stretches of the SWCP in September, what best bang for buck sections would you recommend...looking for beautiful coves, beaches, views and not too many up and downers 🤣
ATB Steve
Thanks for that Steve, glad you are enjoying them. I try to give a feel of what each section is like. It’s a good question you ask and one that is hard to answer. There aren’t really many sections that are flat, especially if you’re also looking for coves, beaches and views. The last leg I did from about Pendeen to Porthcurno wasn’t too severe. Plenty of beautiful beaches to take in such as Sennen, Nanjizal and Portcurno. Or Portreath to St Ives was fairly easy walking and you have beautiful beaches at Hayle, Carbis Bay and St Ives, but this will be busy. If you narrow it down at all and need any help give me a shout.
Cheers
Thanks for the heads up Paul, will have a closer look at the places you mentioned ATB Buddy
Great video :)
Thank you 🙏
Enjoyable video
Thanks. It was a tough day. I was so happy to get in the tent that night.
Another great installment, the drone certainly adds something to the footage. I wish you could use them on Dartmoor! Looking forward to the next one :)
Hi Ryan. Yes it is a shame that they are prohibited on Dartmoor as it would look amazing from above. Having said that I can understand the reasons behind the decision. It gives me an excuse to go further afield to places where it is permitted though 😄
@@pilgrimpaul7798 Yeah I totally get that, I am thinking of getting one next year as I am hoping to get out to the brecons / snowdonia more. As the lakes is just a little bit too far when most of my annual leave is quite rightly reserved for family time. Need to stick to places that I can do in a weekend. What drone have you got?
@@ryanrunningwild I am planning on some walks in the Brecons, funnily enough the week end where you had to abandon your camp I was also planning to travel up for a walk, your video made me grateful that I changed my plans. I have the DJI Mini 2. I did a lot of research into the regulations and this was the one that would work best for me. If you have any questions when you are looking give me a shout.
Goodness me Clovelly looked empty there. What you done to all the grockles? 😂😂😂Great video and nice to see you on the coast path again.
Thanks Shaun. I also was surprised how quiet it was. I suppose not many people were up at 8am on a Sunday.
Hi Paul, love your videos, great shots with the drone.. You have inspired me to do this walk. Was wondering is it OK to leave my car at Clovelly overnight for the duration of the walk. Thanks
Thanks Steve. It’s is a great stretch of coastline. I didn’t visit the car park so not 100% sure if you can park overnight. I have just looked on Google and it does seem as though it is allowed. Maybe give the Clovelly visitor centre a call first to check.
@@pilgrimpaul7798 Hi Paul, thanks for the reply.. I looked too and found a number for the car park so will call tommorow. Iam staying in the same hotel also..hopefully do some more of your featured walks after this one . 👍👍
