What a wholesome young gentleman you are Alex. Thank you for the inspiration and the guides on these jewels in the Peak District. I have followed in your footsteps on some of the routes that you have recommended, made all the easier thanks to your cinematography and way points. I shall add this route to my itinerary. Keep up the great work. Brilliant!
Great weather for it. We were there in late December, and it was the muddiest route we've ever been on, loads of rain, strong winds and slip-sliding all the way up and down !
Alex! That was an amazing introduction with top notch footage. What a day, with amazing weather. What a wonderful place with those amazing hills that I have long wanted to get around to tackling (June is definitely going to include them) and a pretty decent scramble as well. Stunning views, the more I explore the White Peak, the more I love about it. You have filmed this brilliantly and your love of this area in particular is very evident 👍 And, as you would expect me to say Alex 😁 that piano music as you go up Chrome Hill, you couldn’t have chosen better. I might have to sit at the piano in a moment and work that out by ear! Wonderful! Fab video mate 👌
Thank you so much Greg! Couldn’t have asked for better weather! You’ll definitely have to get there when you’re up in June. Yes the White Peak has grown on me a lot over the past year, so many different walks to do and this one in particular is right near the top of my list for the whole of the Peaks! Glad you enjoyed the music again 😁 Thank you so much for the kind words Greg, really appreciate your support as always!! Cheers Greg! 😁👍👍
Alex - just stumbled on your channel and seen this... Great to see someone young for a change rather than old wrinklies like me (I'm 65) out in our glorious Peak District - your photography angles are excellent and unlike that other commentator who doesn't like seeing you retrace your steps, it's good that you take the time and trouble to film yourself when solo because that's really important when trying to attract your own generation. 10/10 - keep going, don't let anyone put you off 👍 Brilliant.
We did this walk 2 days ago in identical weather conditions. Farmer below Chrome Hill even offered to let my children hold a sheep. Also loved the small market square in Longnor where we parked
Cracking walk, used to live not far from there. Took my niece up.and she panicked and wanted the mountain rescue and a helicopter 😂😂😂 managed to coax her down eventually
That Chimney scramble up Parkhouse needs a bloody warning on it! Much harder than I expected and real slippy with loose soil/rocks. Definitely not for the faint of heart and harder than most of the other Grade 1's in the Peaks.
Your images are great. So many times have I looked at these two hills as I travelled between Longnor and Monyash so many times. They are so attractive and I keep promising to walk them. I still have not made it. If your fabulous movie does not finally get me going then I don't know what will. Thanks for sharing 👍
Hi Alex, I have watched a few of your videos now. They are SO well made, SO relaxing with gorgeous background music and such stunning views. Your enthusiasm shines through. Please keep making these videos.
Good afternoon Alex, been looking forward to seeing this one after your insta posts and it didn't disappoint, incredible what a bit of sun can do hey! Such and iconic area and you captured and shared it fantastically, what an absolutely fab looking walk ❤🐲⛰ thanks so much for taking us along, have a great week, Ceri and Kat ☕ ❤ 👍 😀
Thank you guys! 😊 A bit of sunshine makes everything a little better doesn’t it! Highly recommend doing this one, it’s a stunner! Hope you both had a fab weekend and have a great week too! Thank you 😊🙌☕️❤️
Another great video Alex. I’ve somehow managed to haul my lard ass up Parkhouse a few times and having watched this I know it’s time to go for Chrome. Looking forward to your next walk!
Pretty sure I’m spelling wrong but you mention something like wingallow rocks at the end.?? Fantastic video by the way. Inspired me to do the same walk. Absolutely loved it. Although I came down Parkhouse they way you went up and it terrified me 😂😂
I did it the other way around. That drop off from Parkhouse is a right one. The shale is lose. Great vlog. New Subscriber hiking the Ethel Challenge. I parked in Hollinsclough.
Stunning scenery and amazing captures 😍 I was there last month but unfortunately wimped out on the last section of Parkhouse (wind had picked up and I hadn't eaten 🤦). Your camera angle made it look less scary there so definitely going to have to go back and try again!
Stunning footage Alex, and great narration! One on my list is this one, and this have made me get my skates on and planning to get over there at the next available opportunity, would love to know the route you have taken as it looks an epic way to do it! Thanks for taking the time to share with us, I appreciate it and really enjoy your uploads!
Weather doesn’t get much better than this in Feb! I was absolutely gutted mate, proper nightmare! 😂 no it wasn’t thank god, still got the scar from trying to stroke him last time 😂
Great vid Alex mate, Wife and I are off to Snowdonia this weekend, hoping to do Moel Siabod, weather permitting, and a few hills, training for my Snowdon run, April 9th all being well!! i was out up Werneth low yesterday, just like this, it was glorious!!
Thank you very much! 😁👍 wow I’m very jealous of you going to Snowdonia! Beautiful national park, hope to get over there myself when the daylight gets a little longer. It was a stunner of a weekend wasn’t it! Hope you have a fantastic trip at the weekend! Cheers 👍😁
Another beautiful film Alex. I really had a good and relaxing time out there with you in this breathtaking scenery. Finally perfect weather conditions, I love to go hiking on days like this. I also just uploaded a new sunny green forest hike around one of Germany's biggest Lakes, just in case you want to relax to it or support ;) Have a wonderful week mate. Happy trails, Mario
I enjoy your videos but am surprised no links to Wikiloc etc to follow the hikes, can you share? Would be great to be able to follow some of your hikes when we come back to the uk for our summer holiday! This year the peak district!!
I really enjoy making this content for other people, maybe it’s not for everyone. Just trying to encourage people to get out in our beautiful national park 😊
Warning! Done this. Be very care here in the wet. Limestone is like ice when it gets wet. Avoid the rocky bits and stick to the grassy and gravel tracks.
Thanks Peter. If you watched the video you’ll have seen I did mention this a few times. I said it is best done on a calm dry day as it is very slippy and that you should always wear the appropriate footwear.
Great video man, hoping to get some walks in the peaks again this year Just started taking the kids on walks and recording footage so feel inspired! Would be good to connect up when I'm there if you're into collaborative work! Sent you a subscribe
I would have written and I.O.U with my telephone number to text me the address to send a cheque to. In fact I wouldn't as I shouldn't be eating sweet cakes, biscuits and ice cream as I am diabetic.
This route is wonderful, really want to try it ASAP.
Took my daughters on a great walk based on some of this, many thanks for uploading!

Thanks for that. Lovely photography
Thank you! 😁👍
I had no idea such a landscape existed in the Peaks! (or anywhere, for that matter!). What an iconic shape... it looked beautiful
It doesn’t look like it should belong in the Peaks does it! Highly recommend visiting if you haven’t already, it’s a stunning place 😁
Nice video mate. I'm hoping to do this route on Monday if the weather permits . Thanks for the upload
Great video, what lovely views ❤

Sounds like you had a fantastic day! Hard to beat Chrome Hill on a sunny day in the Peaks 👌
I fully agree with Greg you have truly moved to a higher level, commentary 1st class Wonderful Alex superb..!
Thank you very much! Really appreciate that 😁👍
Cracking walk, used to live not far from there. Took my niece up.and she panicked and wanted the mountain rescue and a helicopter 😂😂😂 managed to coax her down eventually
What open skies! I really need to do this place! Been on my list for ages! Thanks for sharing 😊
I can recommend this walk, a beautiful place :)
Nice one Alex excellent comentery great walk did it a few years back. Keep em coming
Cheers Stephen! 👍😁

I was told about this walk last week and having watched your video I shall have to do it soon.

Thank you so much man! A much needed relaxing hike 👌
Another stunning video. Congrats man!
Thank you very much Mikey 👍😁

Thank you Jess! It can be a little scary up there when it’s windy! Hopefully next time you’ll get a calmer day and you can give it a go! 😁

Beaut day for it Alex! Shocking that you bring any cash for the hut. Also was the cat there for round 2? 👀
Weather doesn’t get much better than this in Feb! I was absolutely gutted mate, proper nightmare! 😂 no it wasn’t thank god, still got the scar from trying to stroke him last time 😂

Hi mate.
Where did you start from and park at the beginning?
I’m thinking of doing this walk soon ⛰️👍🏼
Great video Alex. It would be nice if you could post the route map or a gpx file of your activity to fully understand and attempt this route
Been up there many a time. Last time was snow covered and windy as hell. But worth it
Wow I bet that was fun in the snow!
@@alexcripps.outdoors it was slippery shall we say lol
P.s bonus comment for the amount of fech cams again! 📷 some extra miles there! 🤗
😂 thank you! Regretted a couple of them when I had to go back down the scramble sections 😂 definitely adds a mile or two on yes!
How was Parkhouse goung down doing the route the way you did it? Do you have a route map link for this please including the last hill?
It must do your head in having to keep retracing your steps just so you can film yourself walking here and there, it does my head in just watching it.
I really enjoy making this content for other people, maybe it’s not for everyone. Just trying to encourage people to get out in our beautiful national park 😊
Looks amazing! Would you rate it as a moderate or strenuous walk? We're due to go tomorrow.
Hi there do you have the route for this walk please looks amazing
Great video. Do you have a link to the gpx file for the walk?
Where did you park ?
Next to Buxton Raceway 👍
What another great vid! Looking to do this soon. Can i ask where is the best place to park i cannot seem to find anything?
Can someone reply coordinates for parking as I'm going tomoz

I keep a £10 in every rucksack, never take it out.
