    Nice video Alex! Have you been to Goathland? It's been in a lot of TV and film productions, like Harry Potter. It's a beautiful village with a steam train station, about 15 minutes drive from Whitby (it's also on the bus route from York). Another picture postcard place I'd recommend is Hutton-le-Hole, and also Dalby Forest.

      This video was actually filmed in December last year. The Lake District is beautiful year-round, but I personally love the Lake District in the winter months as it has a completely different charm of its own. It may be much colder and darker, but its so quiet and peaceful, and the weather around the mountains is really epic!

    • @AlexTravels1
      @AlexTravels1 Месяц назад

      Hi, thank you for watching the video, and I'm really glad to hear you found it helpful. The levada that takes you through Túnel do Cavalo is called Levada das 25 Fontes. It takes you all the way to Cascata das 25 Fontes, but we created our own hybrid route in which we followed Levada do Risco to Risco Waterfall and then switched over to Levada das 25 Fontes (but didn't walk to the waterfall; instead, we walked the other direction, towards the tunnel, and back to the car park at the start of the hike). I hope that helps. There are so many hiking trails in this area it's really fun to make your own routes. AllTrails was incredible helpful for us to navigate.
