- We visit Yorkshire in winter to spend four days hiking the 79 miles of the Wolds Way. Accommodation, well of course we use the opportunity to test our winter gear and wild camp for three nights.

Hessle is the official start place and is shadowed by the structure of the Humber Bridge. From here we move in a northern direction, passing through a number of villages and various landmarks. In the open countryside we often travel through ancient mature woodlands and deep dales.
Due to the shorten days of winter we often see the sunrise and sunset and manage to capture some dramatic imagines across the landscape.
Winter conditions are often very cold and wet and hence the rucksack load was significant more than normal however, this ensured we stayed warm and dry.
This video is the first of two and records the journey from the start at Hessle to just beyond the half way point of Fridaythorpe. Video #2 will be released one week following the release date of this video.

The opening sequence is fab
Thanks, I really did enjoy making that sequence.
Hope the birds stayed quiet. Thanks for taking us along. 😊❤
Ha, they did until they decided to be the early alarm, cheers
Really enjoyed sunset and scenery good to stay cosy at home and still see the magical wintery scenes
Glad you enjoyed the scenery and I enjoyed my cosy sleeping bag! Thanks for watching.
Brilliant Nigel. I should have been doing this walk back in September, so I'm happy to see it virtually. It's nice to see a walk in the U.K. during a season I have not personally experienced (my walks there occurred between July and October), and what you experienced is definitely my kind of season/weather. Also, I envy you being able to carry that weight as I don't think my back would handle multiple days backpacking anymore, although I managed an 18km walk last week wearing my day pack (including 3 litres of water) without an issue. I'm looking forward to the second half.
Thanks Ryk, always enjoy your comments. And great to have insight into another part of the world. Hope you enjoy the remaining part. Cheers
Much nicer walk in Summer - not so much a mud fest. Millington Wold my favourite part 😊
Can very much imagine it's a lot nicer in Summer and I do hope one day to have that experience. I think we can agree on your favourite Wold, although I'm wondering how my option might change with a summer version. Thanks for watching and I do hope you enjoy the final part.
Top effort managing 20 mile days this time of year. We’ve had our fair share of rain in the last couple of months in East Yorkshire so it’s doubly hard doing long days. Looking forward to the next instalment.
Thanks Jon, glad you enjoyed it and I appreciate the comment. Cheers, Nigel
Thank you for sharing!
My pleasure, thanks for watching and commenting.
Well done for tackling it in winter. I am due to do it in June.
Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Phill, it's a fantastic trail and I'm sure it will be amazing in June, enjoy the adventure. Cheers, Nigel
Thank you. Two great vids. I am planning on doing the YWW in late March. Looking forward to it
This trail has become one of my firm favourites and I hope you enjoy your time on the Wolds as well. Cheers, Nigel
Just subbed. I'm planning on walking the YWW in the spring, although I won't be doing 20 mile days, I'll be taking it much slower. Looking forward to seeing your next video.
Thanks for subbing Carrie. The YWW is a great trail and I’m certainly hoping to do it again at some point with better weather 😁. Hope you enjoy part two which will be published on Tuesday 16:00. Cheers
Poles for all that sloppy mud might have come in handy.
And for the hills, which I did not expect! 🏔🥾
Great stuff Nigel - nothing prepares you for the feeling you get as you turn the corner at 14:49 does it?
That’s very true Stu, I was quite taken aback by the beauty of the Wolds, it is so underrated. Thanks for watching and I hope you enjoy part two. Cheers
Winter camping in the single skin lightwave...must have been a bit damp in the mornings!
As it happens, more of an issue when I first erect the tent. I find that the outside wetness transfer to the inside whilst it is packed away and being carried. So once I've erected the tent I then have to wipe the floor dry, but I don't really seem to have much trouble with condensation durning the night. However, I am about to start looking for a double skin that has a larger vestibule. Do you have any recommendations that I should consider?
I have the Hilleberg Unna, expensive but as good as it gets for double skin camping, IMO.
Freestanding, Slightly less structural strength than the Hilleberg Soulo, still more than good enough for the worst conditions, has more space and a very versatile vestibule, also less prone to condensation than the smaller Hillebergs in damp, UK conditions.
Thanks for the recommendation, something for me to investigate over the holiday. Cheers
