- Coniston Magnificent Seven - Solo Lake District Hike
- 9 Summits including 7 Wainwrights.
I decided to get use early and pick a random route out of my "Walking the Wainwrights in 36 Walks" book. As you saw int he last video, I passed Coniston on the Cumbria Way so it felt apt to return to Coniston and head up the Old Man which is a first time for me.
It was a real shame about the views from some of the summits but had a great walk and really enjoyed it. It was really unlike me to struggle with cramp and some muscle ache on this one. I've been struggling with my knees a little after the recent back to back long walks so it may be that however it didn't stop me that day.
I also have some amazing news about the drone.....I have it back! As you can see, I lost in in the Slate and didn't even try looking for it as through it would be futile. However after being home and posting my pics the following day, someone local to Coniston enquired about my drone as they walk there frequently and mentioned they could have a look for me. A few hours later he contacted me - he found it! I was honestly amazed as my insurance was looking to cost £175 which I really don';t have at the moment but thankfully he's posted me the drone back and I can just do a smaller claim to repair the drone and battery and get up and running again.
It goes to show there are some great honest people out there and I am very grateful.

Loved watching this ❤
Cheers bud. Managed to get the drone back too since which is even better
Really like your content. Thanks
Aww thank you really appreciate that
Cracking mate 👍🏻 looks a tough one 🤪
Cheers Ian. It’s a long but cracking hike to tag off all the wainwrights around there in one go. Although can also do in smaller sections if need be
Great walk Kris, that is one i would really enjoy. All the up and downs. Gutted when i saw the drone go down. I just want to get my boots on everytime i watch your videos.
Love that! It’s a great feeling isn’t it when you want to get out hiking. Just a shame about the weather this week with the storms coming in so not out myself either. Can’t wait to get out again.
I managed to get the drone back from someone online in a group. They walk their dog there and offered to go and look and posted it back to me when they found it. Very lucky.
@krisgleave I did read a comment below saying that you had it returned.. nice1. I'm just binge watching your video. I'm on ullswater now 😆. I must say mate I do love walking in the peeing rain too. I have the montane endurance pro and montane trousers with my Crispi valdres pro I'm well covered. Wish I could join you in all these walks pal 😆 quality mate, keep these videos coming...
One of the best routes from the 36 walks mate 😍 good to hear you got your drone back aswell pal, boss 🤙
Cheers Matt! Yeah I enjoyed the route and not too tough either as once you’re up high you mainly stay up. So glad I got the drone back thank you
Nice job dude glad you got ya drone back
Cheers Jack. So happy getting it back as didn’t expect that at all. Ooush haha
Loved this… you’re such an inspiration! Saw on fb you lost your drone 😢 looking forward to your next videos and hearing about your future plans! 👌
Aww thank you Jackie that’s really nice of you. Makes my day to hear you’re inspired ☺️. I managed to get my drone back too through the power of social media. Just need to send it off for repairs now.
Loved this mate it was brilliant to see familiar places looked a brilliant day regardless of any upset ahah
Aah cheers mate. Shame about some of the views but awesome location.
Another great video, pal. I to use electrolytes. I use SIS. I drop 4 in to my 2 litre hydration pack.
Aah yeah they’re great aren’t they. Mine are sugar free I forget the brand but swear by them. Cheers glad you liked the video
Hi Kris, another good video but a shame about your drone 😕 keep them coming and looking forward to hear about your future plans. Have you not thought about hiking the pennine way yet?
Cheers Mark. Amazed that I’ve actually got it back now. Someone saw my post about it and lives around there so went and had a look for me and managed to find and send it back to me. Needs a few repairs but saved me a fortune. So lucky!
I always fancied the Pennine way way before the coast to coast but since doing that I’ve not been as keep for the Pennine way as it’s pretty bleak. At some stage I probably will but for the length of time it would take us rather do some smaller other trails which would work better for now.
Also, what's the black with orange trim jacket your wearing mate?. I can see it's a omm type.
It’s the OMM Kamleika 5th Generation jacket. Super lightweight so handy to take. Don’t always wear it but do like it
HI there mate, nice kid and keep up the good work - i did the mountain leaders course many years ago - where are you doing it ? I did mine in wales.....
Hi Bilbo, aah brill how did you find it? Did you just do the 5 days training or did you also do the 3 days practical piece to complete the assessment? I’m doing it at one in Borrowdale, Lake District
