NEWTON FELL, HAMPSFELL & HUMPHREY HEAD - Wainwright's Outlying Fells explored by an Old Timer!
If you find my videos helpful please consider a small donation to help towards the costs buymeacoffee.com/oldcodger
Join me as I attempt to finish Wainwright’s Outlying Fells some 40 years after finishing the 214 main summits. Wainwright did say the Outlying Fells were for ‘old-timers’ so I guess I now qualify!
On today’s walk I tackle four tops on the southern edges in the one day. Not particularly difficult fells but Newton Fell North was an absolute nightmare. At the end of the video I give an alternate route up Newton Fell North which I highly suggest you take if you want to bag this one. The others were pleasant walks on a rather windy day but at least the rain held off.

    One of the nicest places on the planet and, you missed it. You might have had more fun had you got a bus to puerto del carmen but, not sure what time you had. That's why visiting some of the most beautiful places on earth doessn't really work when you have a couple of hours shore time.

    "Black hole square"? Did I get it right? Never heard it before. Walking from downtown to Campo de Ourique is quite the distance but passing through some interesting spots. Good video with good tips. Hope you had a good time in Lisbon.

    • @oldcodgerwithacamera
      @oldcodgerwithacamera Месяц назад

      Black Horse Square due the statue in the centre. Maybe it's just the English being too lazy to pronounce Praça do Comércio! It certainly was a long walk to Campo d'Ourique, and all uphill, but we got to see some beautifully tiled buildings that we would otherwise have missed. We're going back to Lisbon (on a cruise) in December and we'll visit some of the places we missed. It's a beautiful city and we'll have to book a week there at some point. Thanks for watching.

    • @oldcodgerwithacamera
      @oldcodgerwithacamera Месяц назад

      The Burmoor Tarn approach semed to be better to me, is there a path? Irton Pike was one I did about four years ago when I also picked up the Circuit of Devoke Water. I actually filmed that one with a GoPro but for some reason the sound was messed up so much of the footage is unsuable. Thanks for commenting.

    Sintra is a must visit if your going to Lisbon for 3 days or more. Take 1 day for Sintra. eat in the town square. the must see attraction is The garden de Regularia. take the 45 minute train from the main station, around 7 euro each way.

    • @oldcodgerwithacamera
      @oldcodgerwithacamera Месяц назад

      Absolutely agree. We'll visit the Garden de Regularia next time we get to Lisbon. Just love the city and will certainly go again.

      @oldcodgerwithacamera Месяц назад

      There will be more Kruger videos but it is getting more and more expensive to get over there. At the moment we are planning to go back next year possibly in late August but it might be later depending on finances. If I could I'd go two or three times a year! Believe me we are more frutstrated than you are! Thanks for your interest and your patience.

    What an ignorant coarse man. Lies galore. The walk from port is not unpleasant at all and he says Not much to do in Gibraltar! Beaches, cable car, caves, siege tunnels, world war 2 tunnels, museum, light house, castle, botanic garden, duty-free shops, northern defences, restaurants, pubs, art galleries, marina's and views to Africa. Plus his camera is out of focus all the time.

      Buying tickets was not a problem, there was no queue there and, as far as I could see there was no 'fast entry' gate. Once inside everbody ends up climbing the same stairs so I don't see any advantage in buying tickets in advance although there might be times when the ticket office is busy so it could save a little time.

    • @oldcodgerwithacamera
      @oldcodgerwithacamera 2 месяца назад

      I've checked and it was indeed originally the Crown Odyssey built in 1988 for Royal Cruise Line. In 1989 it was sold to Norwegian where it operated as Crown Odyssey until 1996 when it was renamed Norwegian Crown. Fred Olsen bought it in 2006 and renamed it Balmoral.

    • @oldcodgerwithacamera
      @oldcodgerwithacamera 2 месяца назад

      We left the ship about 8 am and walked to the train station at Messina to catch the 09:15 train and were in Taormina by about 10:15. Had about 4 hours in Taormina which was plenty and caught the 14:28 train back which got to Messina at 15:36 so that gave us a couple of hours in Messina. The cruise port in Messina is very close to the town so you can judge your time in Messina depending on your all aboard time. Thanks for watching.

      Thanks, your words are much appreciated. When I started doing these videos I didn't think they would be at all successful as nearly all travel type videos on You Tube are by young people saying 'Look at me' and that's not my style. They seem to have found an audience though and I've been astonished at how many views I've had and the number of subscribers. Quite unexpected!There will be more Kruger adventures in the latter part of next year but in the meantime I've got a few Lake District walking videos coming and maybe a bit more cruising. Hang on till next year if that's not your thing!
