  • Ben and Lois are back on their route along the South West Coast Path. This time they're heading through Land's End and on to St Ives! Along the way they wild camp and give advice that you might need along the trail.

    Looks like it's easy to wildcamp even if it's not really allowed. I was worried if I could but you don't even try to hide or set up and leave in the dark hahaha! thanks for showing what I can expect this summer😍

    Really enjoyed the watch, walked the SWCP over many years. Feel so lucky to be Cornish, away walking for the next few days near Burgh Island , oddly bought myself another osprey rucksack a 25lt . Yesterday … super blog

    It is so inspiring to watch you walk. i was there once 20 years ago and it was just as beautiful as you had it there. When I went swimming there were waves several metres high and the coast guards had put up flags 5 metres apart between which you were allowed to enter the water. I will never forget those huge waves. You really have it good! Many greetings, Michael (from Germany)

    Hey Ben and Lois,
    Great video! Beautiful scenery.
    I have the EXOS 38L Osprey pack and admittedly, it doesn’t have a lot of use but it hasn’t started to squeak……yet. I agree, fantastic packs!, but if it starts squeaking I think I’m going to be a bit upset like Lois, lol!
    If you can find exactly where the squeak is coming from, a sprinkle of baking Soda might fix the problem. Sounds silly I know but I works.
    Great video, stay safe
    Cheers

    If you get in to Truro drop me a message I’ll treat you to a tea. I’m loving your channel. Can’t wait to get walking probably again and walk the path.

    Lovely video and I can’t wait now for a few weeks and I’ll be walking the SWCP in Cornwall too. I wild camp on Dartmoor (in their allowed areas) but was a bit worried about the SWCP having walked parts of it and wondered how you do it. Thanks for the great tips, it has reassured me 🙂

    What a team you two are. Really enjoyed watching that one. Going up is hard but the decents I find are harder still. I learned very quickly, not to be embarrased about using walking poles. They really do help. So I get it when you lost one, was it not repairable, even as a temporary fix? Thanks for taking us with you. Paul.

    Hello! Thank you for sharing your adventure with us. Would you ever consider or recommend wild camping in a cove such as the one you visited at 17:38? Far back from the water of course. Or, is there too great a risk of high tide or landslides?

    • @BenOrford
      @BenOrford  2 года назад +1

      So pleased you enjoyed it.
      Sleeping on a beach is great but not always quiet as the waves do get loud when your trying to sleep but I have done it over the years but not normally with a tent but just a bivy bag as less impact to other users.
      I would be very careful sleeping in a cove as high tides and landslides is a big risk.
      If sleeping on a beach make sure you have a clear space behind you and certainly no cliffs or outcrops above you. Hope that helps. Always think about the worst case scenarios when setting up anywhere to camp.
      cheers Ben

      Mine were cheap Ali ones from Lidl or Aldi but no complaints so far
      I've broken too many carbon fishing rods to trust it for hiking poles I think
