Ps. And for the man who complained about the gates/styles you definitely need to send him an hour long montage of all of the squeakiest ones …. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
That's mean....I like it!
As much as we've enjoyed these longer walks, we do miss the hills, little Finn and the wonderful intro music to the Wainwright walks.
CONGRATULATIONS to you for finishing the Dales Way. I have watched every episode and enjoyed them all. 🎉😊
Nicely done! We are those who watch to the very end, celebrating with you as you finally have that brew! Looking forward to the next one with the Finn Meister😁
Loved every second of the 5 hours of pure joy, thank you can’t wait for the next one 😀
These long walks have been great fun. More please.
Another great video Glenn, thanks for taking us along. Really enjoyed this series.
Very much enjoyed your series on the Dales way. Grew up in Grassington and remember walking the route with the Scouts as a teen.
What an epic series! I've had to binge watch as I enjoyed every moment. Your videos are so captivating. You're a brave man. Congratulations on completing this tough journey 😊
Oh I have loved this series so much, so much lovely scenery and pretty countryside. Couldn't take my eyes off it. Hope you do some more Spring or Autumn walks. Thanks for all your hard work and long walks! See you again. All the best, Tail-end Charlie
So much enjoyed your Dales Way its inspired us to follow in your footsteps and we've organised it for next April. Look forward to your next adventure.
Thanks Glen - looked forward to your Dales vids every Sunday evening. Enjoyed every minute despite missing the scenery of the Lake District. More please.
Enjoyed every minute of those five hours. Thanks for taking me with you👍🏼
Loved watching the full series, Hopefully more long walks to come 😎
Thank you.... Many many more to come! 😊
Me and the wife really enjoyed this series, thanks for bringing us along with you.
Amazing job, well done. Really, really enjoyed watching this series so thank you
Some of us Charlies are even making our way through your back catalogue. The gates and stiles are simply the punctuation without which the walk wouldn't flow correctly. Plus who doesn't love a bit of Black Crag Bingo? "Hey Herdy", the shadow wave, "...How (now brown cow)", "Marsh bar", "Vaaan", "Look at that light". Did I miss any? Oh yes - the trudge of doom/bog of despair and my latest favourite - boulder field of lamentation! Got to be the best hiking RUclips channel out there.
Love your videos, very easy and relaxing to watch 😊 Looking forward to the road trip with Finn 🥰
Love every minute! Thank you for hiking me through the fells. And yes I watch to the end (pint) every time…..then I watch again. 😂. Love your pup and I’m frequently scared you or he will fall, etc. 😊 My husband says every time: “he didn’t fall…he put the video up so he is fine.” In the driest of ways. 😂😂😂. Love the long hikes, short hikes, van rides. Anything that shows the beauty of where you live. And stop worrying about crumbs in your beard!
Living the dream Glen. Adventure before dementia 👍🏻
Another fantastic series and thoroughly enjoyed each one. Loving the multi day treks and looking forward to the van trips. Oh, and keep the gate clips coming too. More the better 😂👍
Loved this series… but then, I enjoy everything you do 😁
Congrats lad! As a Mancunian , the moss side reference made me p1ss 😂 you've definitely taken a wrong turn if you end up down them ways 🤣🤣🤣 Keep up gods work 🏆
Started the new year with Basil Hayden Subtle Smoke and this hike. Cheers to all and Happy New Year!
Thanks, loved watching these. I finished the Dales Way a week ago, what a great walk.
We watched and loved all 5 hours. We've also been to the North East to see the castle because of the video you did on the beach.
Keep inspiring us.
The complex at Burnside is a paper mill. Very old but nowadays does specialised paper products. In the past it did the paper for our money!
Well now…I think you’re just about ready to head to the States and tackle the Appalachian Trail! You won’t have to hike down roads and through backyards, but you will need about 21 more weeks off and two more pair of shoes. And your tent…(you have a bonus of only dealing w cattle on one mountain top in the whole of the 2200 miles!) 😅
Loving the “long” hike series. Please sir, May I have some more?
I have really enjoyed this series. I am 60 and I used to do a lot of walking but my arthritis is too bad now (old injuries coming back to haunt me). So you are walking for me now and I love it. I really wish I could do a good long distance walk again.
If you fancy a coastal walk, the Northumberland Coast Route is superb. Officially, it finishes in Cresswell but its well worth extending to Tynemouth.
Hi Glenn,it’s felt like I’ve had a walking holiday with you,very enjoyable all the way,a tip about your favourite Casio watch,get a very small zip tie & make a new loop for the strap it’s better than buying another watch,anyway all the best,Colin P👍,
Outstanding! Enjoy that pint!
Loved it! Here's to many more LDWs (Hadrian's Wall, Offa's Dyke, the Dales High Way...) but I hope you're going to continue hiking the Wainwrights.
Thank you for these longer trails that I can no longer do. Just lovely
Great videos of a great walk in some really great countryside. Thanks
Completely agree about the camping especially as camping fees are often very nearly the same as a B&B. Also, the ability to dry clothing and boots in a tent are effectively nil.
I thought that sheep “baaaa’ing” was a squeaky gate at first 🤣😂🤣
Finally finishing this series, with a bacon buttie, yes it may have taken 2 days to watch, but happily too. Oh and now following you on Patreon!
Love everything you do pal keep doing it
Makes my day when you put on a new upload
Keep up the good work 👌
Brilliant series. I've done this one + Cumbria Way and may I recommend The Cleveland Way which was the last one I did, which mixes it up with the Yorkshire moors and the Yorkshire coast, personally my favourite but whichever you do I'll be watching.
Cleveland Way would be mint!
But I love listening to you yap 😊 woo hoo, road trip with Finn can't wait ❤from Michigan
If you haven’t already done it or thought about it I recommend the West Highland Way. It gets more spectacular each day travelling from Glasgow to Fort William. I’ve done it twice now as I loved it so much. I used a baggage transfer company so I could look at the views instead of my feet. What I didn’t know at the time was that I had a faulty heart valve and have since had open heart surgery, but I’m still hoping to do it again. I really enjoy all your videos including the gates and stiles so keep it up 😊
I'm a tail end Charlie here in Australia. Love your walks! Thanks for taking me along!
My favorite quote from this little old lady I know is walking makes for pretty legs. ❤
Thanks for the Dales Way tour. I did it myself two weeks ago and your first three episodes were a great guide to what I should expect. I had fewer cow encounters though 😊
I love these long ones where you stay somewhere overnight....I love all the content you do, its varied and so interesting, thanks Glenn
Road trip..yeyyyy🥳
Thank you. You're so calming to watch and seem so good natured. Love that you say hello to sheep and dogs, admire trees etc....I feel like I've just spent 5 hours with the male version of myself !
Definitely enjoyed the 'long walk' series. Coast to Coast next? Thank you.
We really enjoyed everything you've created. We just spent six weeks in the Lakes, using Kendal as our base - an amazing place with great bus and train connections. Now, we're back in Chiang Mai, Thailand, and already planning our next trip to the Lakes in 2025. We’ll be there from March to September and can’t wait! Keep up the fantastic work!
Well done Glen, another trail smashed 👏👏 loving the channel and watching all your vlogs and adventures! Looking forwards to your next one and road trip with ickle Fynn …Have a well earned 🍺&🥧💫
This is a great adventure, well done.
I have enjoyed this series
Liked the camping
Thank you loved every minute off it and yes even the gates 😂
Fascinating series B C !! Great filming and interesting "factoids".. You may want to take a look at the Cleveland Way - plenty of cliff walking alongside the North Sea and plenty of B & B places en route ! It maybe something you ( and us followers ) would enjoy , Cheers and Beers !!
I love watching these films of your journeys. I just watched the film in Ambleside and thoroughly enjoyed that one. Last week I visited Holmfirth (Last of the Summer Wine) with my brother which is another lovely place to visit. However, it was the stunning views and hiking potential on the journey from Stalybridge to Holmfirth that was just staggering. A lovely potential for some stunning photographs especially from Binn Green (A635) car park. Many years ago I lived in Saddleworth and I never knew it and Dovedale was just 10 minutes away from me.
Nice series, very enjoyable all the way through and certainly good to see the whole routes start to finish. Very much appreciate the maps you show of the daily routes, handy for 'short' walk ideas too. Staying in accomodations rather than camping certainly sounds a good idea for the longer trips. Enjoy your next adventure 🤠
Really enjoyed following along with your walks. Thank you taking us with you and looking forward to the next adventure ❤
I love the video's. Live the talk that goes with it.thank yoh❤
Fab series Glenn, have watched them all and enjoyed.
Tail-end Charlie here, checking in. What a wondeful series Glenn. Thank you!
As for future walks, there's so much to choose from, 1000's of miles of named trails, coast path linear walks, multi-day circular walks....the list goes on.
One thing is a guarantee, we'll be here with you for every inch of whatever trail you bimble along next!! 🚶👣😊
I really enjoyed watching this series of videos and no doubt when the winter draws in I'll be re-watching them for the beautiful lush views of summer.
Stayed for the whole walk, which was brilliant. I have been a Walker in my younger years. However, time has moved on, and injuries to my leg have now made those excursions impossible. It makes me very jealous that all of the new kit is so much better being lighter, etc. Thanks for taking me along, and although I miss those adventures when you're in the cold and rain, I have a comfy armchair and a beer. I'm so grateful. Keep on rambling.
90th whoop whoop 😂 I will watch after my tea
Never was a pint so well earned. Thanks for the summer walks Glenn, its been a joy to tag along.
Great series loved them all. The stone seat at 51:23 in the video marks the end of the dalesway. You might recall one at the start also in Ilkley 😊
Yep, talking about no official end point, walked straight past it...
Great to see the Dales and Cumbria Way walks all good
Made it to the end 👍 Past two of my old houses. Loved this series 😁
Sensational content!! Thank you..❤
Congrats Glenn on finishing the dales walk fantastic series, walking or van I will be watching can’t wait 👍👍
I have stopped at that Cafe in Staveley a few times on my motorcycle. Lovely little cafe.
Came accross your journey purely by accident and, to be honest, its been the best vid log of the Dales Way I have seen. Many congrats on finishing it and, yes, its a lovely walk. I completed it back in 2017 and am going back next year. If you like coastal walks, then the Southwest Coastal path is a really good one, a tad long, but epic views.
Brilliant thanks for taking us along look forward to the next one 🍁👍
Loved this walk Glenn. Not really had this walk in my sights but it's definitely on my radar now. I would wild camp it all the way though.
Awesome series and great crack as usual sir. 👏
Have watched along and have enjoyed the journey. Hope you do more occasional long distance walks. Cheers.
Been a great series to watch…. Please do some more
Thanks for these, I’ve enjoyed watching the series. Apologies if it’s already been said, I did have a scroll of the comments & didn’t see it, but if I remember correctly there is an “End of the Dales Way” slate plaque on the piece of old wall you passed at 51.24 (just before you said 120m left).
Any thoughts about the Dales High Way for a future one? It’s on my to do list.
Yes! I definitely enjoyed this series as well as the trips you have done in the van. Today was a really nice walk, loved having the sausage butties …. Thank you
- Gaylin, Ontario Canada
Loved this series (especially the the horse fly episode 😂)
Cant wait for road trips & wildcamping expeditions!!
Bring on the Autumn adventures!! 😊
Tail end Charlie here. Watching in Devon. Enjoyed this one very much. Bit of a grueller for you Glenn. Well done.
I was looking forward to this section as it is home ground. The name of village is pronounced Burneside not Burnside. It was me that passed by in the red car as you were at the Longsleddle junction but I didn`t see you at the time. The mill you passed Is James Croppers paper mill I used to work there and at the time we made all the red paper for poppies and Yellow for Yellow pages and all the tickets for the London underground amongst many other things and probably still do.
Fabulous. I watched all 5. I really enjoyed watching your journey. Brilliant. 👍👍
I loved this series!! Yes for me personally I love having a base where we can offload all our stuff & have access to all the facilities, especially a nice comfy bed & warm shower. Oh & I love all your videos, but you in the vaann are my favs 😊
Unbelievable! What great walks and great entertainment. Thankyou!
I have loved to watch your long distance walks ❤
Hi Glenn watched it all, and brilliant as always. Love the multi day hikes ( got the Cumbria Way on my to do list) looking forward to watching the van trips, the Scotland one last year was epic 👍
Watched from start to finish, enjoyed it all. Brings back great memories of the best part of England. Thanks Glenn, keep it up. Road trips in the vaaan also wonderful too.
I watch to the very end of all your vids. I admit, I do prefer the fell walks but maybe that's because I do them too and that's what I'm into.
From two tail end Charlie’s…we loved this trip. Look forward to watching the next road trip. 😊
Finally finished this one. We watched in 3 parts due to holiday activities. We’re heading back to Dubai tomorrow :( but it was great seeing you at Black Mass.
I look forward to the next video/series. I think that when you can charge up more the lav mic is worthwhile and when you are on the fells in future episodes having the zoom camera is great, but apart from that, I think you’ve really found your stride (pun intended) with your videos!!
Loved it. Glad you’ve finished though, I’m exhausted 😉
Reach round and give yourself a pat on the back Glenn. That took some doing. Thoroughly enjoyed the 5 hours spent in your company and look forward to your next adventure!
I have loved this series!
Seeing you at Hag end was like seeing Bilbo Baggins getting back to the shire.
Thank you for sharing these inspiring videos. Now im going to do the dales way myself over the christmas period! Looking forward to experiencing all the beauty as seen in your videos ❤
Hugely enjoyed this, thank you! I’d love to see you take on the Cape Wrath trail next!
What a wonderful series and so inspiring. Definitely b&b it next time. You can’t beat a full breakfast to start your day off. You deserved that pint, actually , we all did. Can’t wait for the next one.
Well done Glen for completing the way,stuck with you all the way, as I have done every video you’ve posted since I found your wonderful channel about a year ago now.
Another great series of videos, very enjoyable. Thank-you👍
The factory at Burneside is Croppers paper mill.Great series again, looking forward to the next adventure !
Been away walking and just caught up with you. Watched all the way thro . You really must evaluate the amount of food you eat ( in your case not a lot atm ) and I’m sure you’ll feel much better and strong when you fuel correctly !. A steam engine doesn’t work properly without a full head of steam , nor will you !. Try the Pembrokeshire costal walk !!. Just done it and it’s stunning . 👍👍👏👏👏👏
Well done, hope the last pint went down well. Look forward to your next video whatever you do.
