I have not long moved near to the Quantocks, i can't wait to get hiking and Mountain Biking up here.
A lovely winters walk. Exciting countryside - thoroughly enjoyed myself. Superb seeing the deer Thanks for taking me along.
It’s absolutely beautiful up ther
always enjoy your vids, thanks for sharing 👍
Good Job as ever Abbie.
Love your enthusiasm.
thank you abbie a great walk loved it cheers from trev
Loving your video's,Can't stand pine trees, bring back our lovely old native tree's. Keep walking Abbie 👍👍
I like them in Scotland :) Thanks for watching!
Great video, thanks for sharing.
Going to Quantocks this weekend for the first time. Great VID! Great knowledge! Thanks for sharing.
Great vlog. Heading up this way myself tomorrow night with the tent to mark the end of lockdown. My local hills too, nice gentle stroll to the start of the Quantocks from my hometown Taunton 😊
Great to see some of my local walks on the Quantocks and Exmoor to watch. Lydeard Hill is also a favourite of mine and have done this walk many times, but in the past have tended to go via Aisholt Common, Quantock Combe and back via Rams Coombe and Crowcombe Park Gate. The Quantocks is also where I did most of my training for my first backpacking trip of the West Highland Way. As soon as the lockdown is eased, I intend to be back out again.
Great video, I love the Quantocks especially Will's neck. I must explore great wood sometime
Thanxs for sharing
Another amazing video I’d love to bump in to you on the trails it’s easy seeing beauty but you just have a way of bringing things to life with your endless wealth of knowledge. You inspired me to Get up at 3am to go see a sun rise it was beautiful. Finding it so easy to STAY WILD now I’ve found your videos just watch one and I’m out the door on a new adventure
Used to live in Kingswood when I was a child. Lovely part of the world :)
I have a lot of love for the Quantocks, Abbie. I love how you can maintain height once you're up and walk for several miles. I generally prefer heading north to Beacon Hill, as it tends to be less busy than Wills Neck.
I do like how the MacMillan Way crosses Wills Neck. How you come across the Greenway routes? Interesting, challenging but somehow avoidig two high points!
I'm always grateful for the number of free car parks surrounding the Quantocks. Those prices are on a par with the Malverns and still cheaper than in Cheddar!
Congrats on your qualifications and best of luck with your ML assessment.
Those pines are all over the Middle and south eastern US. From timbering
Superb Abbie. Your enthusiasm for the outdoors always comes shining through. What camera are you using please? Thanks Paul :)
I like your new hiking adventure video, I brought myself a 66 North Iceland beanie ...i call it my Abbie Barnes hiking beanie :)
Could you recommend a hiking club or rambling group to meet other fellow hikers who enjoy the pretty countryside 🌳⛰
Great video!
Have you heard of The Coleridge Way? It's in your area! I'd love to see a video of yours on it! Keep up the good work :)
A superb walk, despite the mud (!), and a good video. There looked to be quite a few opportunities for some stealthy wild camping. What are the Forestry Commission employees / Park Rangers like about this? Do they turn a "blind eye" or do they rigorously enforce a "no camping" policy?
Well, you shouldn't really wild camp anywhere that you don't have the landowners permission........ But(!) yeah you probably could get away with it :) I wouldnt suggest it when they are logging though! and they would defo enforce it on the Quantocks, so stealth mode is key!
Cheers for that.
Are you on Viewranger? would love to do your route.
How would the quantock be for someone with breathing issues ie asthma and COPD ?
I still think the north of England as the most stunning scenery more than the South, sorry if I sound prejudice but I have experienced both. ATB Alan
