Scafell Pike Corridor Route by drone - Winter hiking documentary
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- This cinematic hike to Scafell Pike connecting the Wasdale and Corridor Route is enough to get you inspired for a fantastic winter walk.
See the summit peppered in the snow with brilliant views from the drone following my ascent from the Wasdale Head car park, all the way to the peak before switching back down the Corridor route where I missed the white arrows showing the way.
There wasn't snow forecast in the weather report, but it fell the night before, which in April it isn't too uncommon for this to happen. It made it a little difficult to film the documentary of this incredibly beautiful part of the Lake District National Park.
BTW, I MADE THIS INCREDIBLE BIT OF GEAR

I never tire of watching this, especially the pan across the corridor route👌
Damn! The production, edits, footage, etc. jump every video. The strings were perfect for the stark contrast of the scenery. Beautiful closing drone shot as well.
Best backpacking content on RUclips hands down. The editing and cinematography is beautiful!
Thanks very much mate, more to come and making sure I push for better each time.
Enjoyed, thanks, have walked many times in all weathers, feels so wonderful in the elements of each sesson. Kip in car overnight roughin it. Love 6am starting at Wasdale then coming back down corridor route, i call the staircase as its like a enclosed very steep staircase, wish you had shown, its fab but very tough in winter, dangerous. down to the pool of giants, lunch on giants stones, the follow stream down along back to wasdale to a brew....
Happy times. Thanks
Loved the violin! Nice vid!!
Excellent music!!
Great video. Thankyou.
Great video, goes to show the weather can really affect your orientation and you can see why people get caught out when up the mountains. We are heading up Scarfell Pike next year, so looking forward to it. Once again great video
Just goes to show how the environment really does influence our moods and behavior. It turned out to be a proper adventure with awesome visuals to boot. Loved that. All the best. Mark
Cheers Mark, glad you enjoyed it! More to come from the Lake District mate.
@@thetrailhunter4469 It was a good unexpected one. I wouldn't be saying if it wasn't good but my recent upload is entertaining....if you have the time. Peace!
Really love your motion graphics and beautifully shot video. I've never done Scafell Pike in the winter but now I might have to!
Thanks so much Hannah! Glad you enjoyed it. It’s a very good walk for sure. 👍
This is great. It looks just like when you’re in the snowy mountains of the game Ghost Recon Breakpoint
Wow, some incredible shots at the end, looks absolutely incredible.
Thanks very much! Glad you enjoyed that.
These shots are insane man. Amazing!
Quality editing, fantastic images, superb drone shots, just a really great all rounder, takes a lot of time making a viddy to this level, most people wouldn't comprehend the amount of work that goes into a basic edit, let alone one to this scale. Well done. Lee
Thanks so much. Really means a lot and yes it’s quite a bit of work but I love making them. More like that to come. 👍🏔🏕
@@thetrailhunter4469 Nice one, look forward to it... oh, Ben (Londoner Outdoors) sent me to your channel originally, been watching for a month or so...(not stalking if you know what I mean?😁) Cheers. Lee
Ahh yeah, Ben is a nice chap. Great wild camping vids! Highly recommend.
When we went up it was about a foot deep and the wind was knocking us over fantastic day up on the mountain
Beautiful footage as usual! Really enjoy watching your videos. Keep it up!
Thanks, Brian. Really means a lot. Got more coming this week. 👍
Damn man that’s bloody epic. Looks amazing!
Thanks very much! More to come.
The Trail Hunter not done scarfell myself yet but it’s definitely on my list. You made it look unreal! Just recently been getting into getting out more. Took me the longest time to realise I love walking and being outdoors is what makes me happy. Watched your Snowdon video aswell, also so sick! I’m heading there on the bank holiday weekend. I’ve done Helvellyn & striding Edge last year. Going to try and push myself and do Crib Goch it the conditions are good. Looking forward to seeing more man. Awesome channel.
love this!!
Love the drone footage, epic
Another great video, thank you! 😁
Thanks Connor. Many more like that to come!
A much better day for it than when I attempted it 🤪 Maybe dinosaurs just aren't cut out for climbing? 🤔 🦖
This is probably your best video yet. The cinematography was on point, the editing was really engaging and i felt there was a good balance of commentary and footage.
How did the altras hold up in those conditions?
Ahh cheers mate. Each one I make I push for better. That snow was not supposed to be there, weather report had no snow forecast. I wouldn't recommend wearing the Lone Peaks knowingly for a snowy trek with poor visibility. Saying that, the grip was very good considering and my feet weren't too cold.
Awesome video my friend!! Quality work !! getting so much better keep going ;)
Thanks so much mate! Means a lot and to come from yourself it’s very validating. Likewise buddy. Hope to see you again soon.
Planning on doing scafell pike in September and hopefully do some great walks while we’re up there as well , great footage drone shots look fab
Thanks ever so much. Glad you enjoyed it. Many more like that to come 👍🏔
Oi oi Geeza!! Epic cinematics with the drone and editing plus the music choices work really well nice one 👍...Can't beat Google maps 😂 looked like a great experience and location!
Cheers mate! Yeah each video I make I told myself to put more effort into it than the last. Getting there! Have you ever been?
@@thetrailhunter4469 keep up the good work definitely got your own style and techniques!! Nah never been here before so thanks for sharing! Peace out 👍
nice video !!!!
Thank you!
Oh wow. We need to do Skafell and Skafell Pike again but with snow!
It’s definitely a beautiful time to go. 👍 thanks for watching.
You got some amazing shots with the drone! It makes the landscape feel so much bigger.
One time I got off course hiking by following a damn cow path an extra half mile. It seemed like such a well tred trail that I didn't question it for a long while/check the map on my phone. I felt like a dumbass doubling back lol.
Haha that’s exactly what I did! Can’t believe I didn’t see the white arrows on the rocks! Thanks though, glad you enjoyed it. More like that to come soon!
Does this walk have any ridges or exposed sections? Looking at going towards the end of the month but don't want anything too scary
This route doesn't have any ridge lines. But they're out there in the area should you change your mind. Mostly this one was well graded paths and steps.
@@thetrailhunter4469 Thanks a lot for the response mate. I look forward to it, hopefully get the weather on my side too
Keep vids like this coming!
Thanks very much! Glad you enjoyed them. So many more to come. 👍
what time of year was this filmed?
That is breathtaking, lake district is such a nice place! Hopefully to hike there again in the near future, not too hard to reach either with a flight to manchester :)
Thanks so much, means a lot. Yes it’s such a beautiful place, hopefully I captured the landscape there. More to come. 🏕👍🏔
Loved your video bro, could you tell me your drone kit you where using?
Thanks so much mate. That was a Mavic Air 1. Recently got a Mavic Air 2 which I used on my Skye Trail hike last year. 👍
I've done Nevis and Snowdon last year and I'm looking to do scafel like this August. How would you say this is compared to the other two? Especially the corridor route
Hey, sure it’s hard to tell because there’s so many routes you could take. Ben Nevis is the longest up the pony track, but is a steady gain the whole way ending in a plateau, I’ve done Snowdon via the Miner’s, Pyg and Watkin Path but wasn’t as long and the corridor route I’ve done Scafell twice now and that’s definitely the quickest of the three. Did Scafell the other day up the Corridor from Seathwaite which was probably the easiest of the 3 but then went back via Glaramara and that was a slog with some scrambling. Hope that answers that. If you go up Scafell via Wasdale which was in that video it’s quick but quite steep from the start. 👍
@@thetrailhunter4469 which one he the safest path to go up? Purely because one of my friends has a knee which isn't in the best of shape.
What was your original route going to be
@Uncle Gilbert that would have been way too easy for him I reckon
Some amazing drone shots, I did it early april in heavy snow :)
Thanks very much. Yeah it’s an awesome part of the world. Snow takes it to another level. 👍 thanks for watching.
What an awesome video! Loving the cinematography and music. Your videos are so well put together. I'd love any tips and advice please so that my motorbike touring videos can have a similar sort if feel.
Hiya! Thanks so much for watching and for the kind words! Ping me an email at hello@thetrailhunter.com and we can chat there about some specific questions you have. 👍 cheers!
Saw you at the summit of Nevis, some great vid here. Keep it up 👍
Ahh nice one. Haha glad you liked the vid. I’ll be uploading the new Nevis one soon. All the best.
nice
I'm a year late but just in case you don't know, GPS works anywhere, so you could have used ViewRanger or something to help you navigate!
Great footage! What month did you do this??
Cheers! That was in March I believe 👍
@@thetrailhunter4469 Ok thanks.
Had to reach out. Yaaas!
Great video, really enjoyed the vistas and music. Me and a mate have recently come back from a trek up Great Gable and around Napes Needles which was lots of fun. Out of interest, what are those leggings you use? Been looking for a descent pair but so far no joy - cheers and keep up the good work!!!
Thanks Mark! Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for the warm words. It’s a beautiful place for sure. They’re just a cheap Dare 2 B base layer. Think I got em from Go Outdoors for about £15.
Amazing views there Russ. I might have to visit soon. Did you stay overnight nearby, if so, where?
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video. I stayed in Coniston which is an hours drive from Wasdale Head.
Just been catching up on some of your stuff. It’s a route I’m pretty familiar with but great to see it from the air. Loved it, man 😎👍
Hi amazing vid I have sub you Bryan atb
Thanks very much Bryan. Means a lot. 👍
yummy
