An excellent video Carrie, initially you were blessed with excellent landscape and glorious skies. The route is not one I've heard of before and you highlighted deliberate access sabotage to the right of way. Well done for reporting. Btw you looked glorious throughout and I ❤your hair 😍, Regards
So you had problems with blocked paths - sooooo annoying! Your views were a mix of lovely spaces and others which were industrial. Thank you for another lovely video Carrie, Cheers, Warren :)
Hi Carrie, started out so well and seeing the marsh harrier, well done for reporting the footpath blockages seeing it must be part of the coastal path it must get resolved soon, anyways warmer weather coming this week get out and enjoy nigel
Hi David, it was very disappointing and also exhausting. But, as I'm sure you already know, the reality is that many footpaths are blocked now and the councils have a backlog of landowners to deal with :( Thanks for watching :D
Bloody 'ell Carrie! Watching that made my blood pressure go through the roof. Some landowners are an absolute menace, they really annoy me. I hope you'll report these issues to the relevant PROW Officer. I thought my neck of the woods was bad but that was off the scale. 👎
Hi Chris, I did report the problems to the council.- I pasted their reply in the video details. Yeah, it was a flipping nightmare at the end! Still, I'm glad I tried walking the route to see the state of it.
Hi Carrie...yeah that Vermuyden certainly left his mark in North Lincolnshire...Great to spot the Marsh Harrier....I often follow a section of the NCW around the Alkborough area....Shame about the Marshy blocked footpaths..Not the greatest path to follow...like you say "Forget it"
Good old Cornelius Vermuyden! Yeah, It is lovely around Alkborough, a gem of a walk that one. Unfortunately this section was a nightmare! But at least now I know and hopefully if people see this video they won't try and walk it. Like I say- it was dangerous in parts! Thanks for watching and commenting :D
I could sense your frustration with this one. Been in that situation so many times where a public footpath has been diverted or is too overgrown to pass through. Seems like the route isn’t properly established yet. Ah well, you can’t say you didn’t give it a good try. Atb
More like the path has become forgotten about rather than isn't yet established. Rather sad as the section on the Humber is beautiful. It's a shame it hasn't got the same importance as the Viking Way.
Hello Carrie. Fair play you ready and prepared to put a good shift in then. 13 miles +2 before. It was just made impossible for you. Guessing you don't drive taking the bus and then you said train back. You did well and it was a nice watch. Real shame farmers and land owners blocked your path. Sad days. You had nice weather and made me smile about forgetting to take the sun cream and being a ginger It’s needed. Good video. Nice to see you back out again.😉👏👏👋
Hi Jamie. I do drive but because it's a linear walk I used public transport to get to it and back again. I'll try and use public transport rather than drive if it's convenient. Yeah, I actually walked about 17 miles that day in all! I was worn out after that :D

Hi Warren, yeah I was pretty annoyed at the end! I'm looking forward to getting out to do some better walks now spring is here :D

Hi Nigel. At least the weather has improved recently. Yeah it's a shame about the blocked paths- so frustrating!
You must have been very disappointed with all the obstacles, but thanks for sticking with it as best you could. Much appreciated.

@@carriehikes Yes, I've come across barbed wire over paths in the Clapham area. Can't do much about quagmires in fields though!
@@davidhudson1994 Barbed wire- it makes me wonder if I should add a pair of wire cutters to my pack! 🤔
Thought I’d commented. Anyhow well done for trying so hard Carrie.
Thanks, much appreciated 😃
Nice weather and calm water 😊
Yeah, that was the best part of that walk. All went down hill after that. Lol

Good to know.
That’s a big walk.😁👏👏👍
I have noticed paths i have walked for years have been blocked since the pandemic, makes you wonder about these conspiracy theories
I don't know any conspiracy theories about footpaths- you might have to enlighten me about that one 😀
@@carriehikes I meant more general, restricting our movements in various ways😄
