Fantastic conclusion to the walk. Stunning scenery captured with a photographers eye as always. It does look like a long distance trail well worth doing. I always enjoy passing a way marker when wandering around South Wales and pondering if I'll ever do the whole trail one day.
Never say never Kev. The trail and the mountains will always be there. If you ever decide to embark on the adventure, it will be one to savour. Thanks for supporting my series by watching and commenting.
Thank you for describing the videos as inspirational. I am really pleased to read that comment. Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment on my videos.
Ohh well done Dave and I hugely appreciate you sharing this trip it’s been fantastic to watch. Best meal, well I agree there, we had a great night in the Red lion. I loved your stories in this final episode. Congratulations on all those 2000 ft hills in England and wales that’s an achievement. You’re certainly a keen hiker and an inspiration Dave. Although I have been over the Glyders many times the weather for us last year was very bad and the terrain up there was extremely confusing and very slippery, we could not get on the cantilever stone. This route and the cape wrath trail are my best hiking achievements with the CW being a lot tougher but the CWT raises more emotions. Thank you so much Dave and ATB 🙏🍻
Thank you so much Dave. To be called inspirational is so nice. I don't see myself that way at all, but when someone says it it's impossible not to smile. I have never thought about the Cape Wrath Trail although I know it forms a large part of the Scottish National Trail that I have considered. The joys of hiking is that there are so many trails to choose from. We're blessed to enjoy the hobby that we do. Thanks for supporting my series.
Thanks for the effort and skill to provide an excellent entertaining record of your achievements, certainly inspiring and despite being a good bit older than you, a trip i think i need to do whilst i still can. Keep up the good work, looking forward to see what comes next.
Congratulations on a fantastic achievement and a couple of days quicker than if following the suggested daily stages. Have really enjoyed watching this series and living in South Wales I am very tempted to complete at least the bottom half of this journey next year. The last couple of days had some big climbs but you seemed to be floating on air coming to the end. Enjoy your coffee's and couple of day's rest and I look forward to your next expedition. 😀
You won't regret exploring the route if you decide to do so. Thank you so much for your generous comment. I'm really pleased that you have watched and enjoyed the video.
Firstly Dave, big congratulations on a fantastic achievement. In the video you answered the question I wanted to ask - is it one of the toughest trails in the UK. At the start of this walk you said you wanted to test yourself as after the haute episode you said your confidence was a bit low, well that was truly tested and put to bed methinks. They say keep the best for last and in this video I would say you have managed that to perfection. The decision to take a rest day turned out to be a master stroke in so many ways - to give you not just better weather but recharging the batteries for what was to become (in your words) a monster day in the hills. That was a wonderful piece to camera in your tent at the end of that day and I could see you trying to keep the smile off your face as you was reaching Tal y Fan on your final ascent. Thanks for sharing your journey with us, its been epic and one that I will come back and watch again I dare say. atb Al
Ah, thanks Alan. Yes, that rest day made a massive difference to my legs. And what a day it was. To be amongst Wales' highest hills in such great weather and to be able to perform will take some beating. Confidence levels have returned and I know I will be able to achieve anything when I set my mind to it. Watch this space!!
Congratulations David! Well done. You've inspired me to take a closer look at The Cambrian Way. Maybe in sections though, I don't think I'd be able to have 3 weeks annual leave for it!
You certainly won't regret nibbling at the CW. I didn't for years due to my familiarity with it in the southern section. But, I'm so glad that I have now walked it and I hope that you enjoy it when you explore it.
Great video clip Morgs, thanks for sharing, we've spent years hiking and exploring in Wales and its always nice to see new places like this that we could visit, we've subscribed :) look forward to seeing more of your content in the future also 👍
Thank you so much for not just subscribing but also taking the time to comment. I'm not a prolific video maker although I do hope that you can find pleasure in other videos I've made. Thanks for taking the time to comment.
A fabulous adventure Dave, thanks for taking us a long. They were a full on last two days and the descent down to Conwy looks great. It will be nice to walk over those hills again. I'm about to start the second half tomorrow. I can appreciate the challenge of doing this route in one trip, but also the rewards that come with that too. Next adventure ?
Thanks Andy and thank you for supporting my series. The weather is beginning to settle so perhaps we'll get that settled period that will make the conclusion of your CW so enjoyable. I am already looking forward to seeing your videos. As for what's next? Flights booked for France next year so a jaunt around the GR54 with 2 friends beckons. I'm nibbling at Scandinavia too. One last backpacking video for the year comes out next week from a 5 day trip to Dartmoor that I enjoyed. Good luck on the trail!
Just watched all of your Cambrian Way adventure, and got to say that was fantastic and enjoyed every episode. FairPlay to you that is a long route and you made it look easy, might have to do this myself 😁 as we live in Cardiff we aren’t that far from the start of it, ATB Mark & Simon .
Thank you so much for not just watching but also taking the time to comment. If you do take on the Cambrian Way you're bound to enjoy it as I did. You'll be tired at the end though!!
@@morgs4mountains it looks very tiring, would you say the Rhinogs is the hardest part? We’ve done four of the summits there and the terrain is very tough.

By far. Slow going from the two Rhinogs and very tiring for sure. But, the most satisfying part of the whole trip for sure.
