Walks, Waterfalls & Wild Swims
Приєднався 22 тра 2023
Lover of walks, waterfalls & wild swims!
I'll be sharing some of my favourite wild swimming locations, plus taking you on adventures to discover new ones.
Always do your own research before wild swimming. Just because I've swum somewhere, that does NOT mean it's safe or legal to do so!
Conditions can change daily. If in doubt, STAY OUT!
Respect the countryside. Take nothing but memories, leave nothing but footprints.

Always nice to be able to eat one's surroundings 😂
I enjoyed that Helen, and congratulations on your 100th video. Ref the art on show, one can never escape from the cliché highland cow pictures which udderly bore me. Also 🤔 is that you on that TV cruise ad? 😉
Parking costs creeping in everywhere. Formby now £8 and Ainsdale £10!! Will have to park elsewhere and trek.
lovely area,right on my doorstep.
Why you didn’t bother bringing your unicorn floaty? I saw a sheep giving you the evil eyes? Well done rescuing a sheep. You are sheep hero. Xxxxx 😘luka
17.5km is a bit far to be carrying an inflatable unicorn! 🤣
Great video 👍, I've been on some of those dodgy footpaths to the falls, bricking it on one or two of them😢
Glad it's not just me! 😬
You showed me some fall's that I have missed there Helen. I so enjoy your videos, thanks for sharing in your own imitable way😊
I know I missed good shots of a couple of them, but I'm trying to limit the scary paths these days! 🤣
Great walks round there and scenery, I was there a month ago 👍🏻. Belated ‘ Happy Birthday ‘ 🎁🎉 and leave the covid alone now .
Thanks! ♥ It'll probably be E.coli next! 🤣
Love the peaks, thank you for sharing your adventure 🥾 🏊♀️
Smashing 👍 thanks for sharing and glad you are feeling better Helen.
Thank you! ♥ Glad to be back! 😃
@@WalksWaterfallsWildSwims-uz3db Helen I have managed to bag another waterfall and uploaded in a local library, look out for Grey Mare's Tail on 882 Shy Girlie films. I had severely restricted editing as in between moving house. Hope you like, regards Dave Heaven
I often go on this walk with my friend . The river is/would be great if the water wasn’t so polluted. So glad you pronounced It Harewood not Haarwood. Greetings from Haarhills Leeds😂
🤣 I was hoping I'd maybe caught it on a bad day and it wasn't usually so scummy!
I can tell in this video you are an animals lover like me.😘🙂😊 xxxx luka
Nice video, nice views, nice waterfalls, nice deer and nice leg's 😊
The deer certainly had nice legs! 🤣
2nd #1 view. The must be a club for this sort of thing. 😁
🤣 You've won a reservoir!
Oh Helen please be careful walking through the Japanese Knot weed, it'll burn your skin. Ref your auntie from South Wales, does she come out with such gems as " where were you going when I saw you coming" or " that's a lovely jacket that coat you're wearing" or " I'll be over there in a minute now" ... Which hospital do I send flowers to? ❤
👍 I'm constantly worried about giant hogweed too! 🤣 "There's lovely" seems to be a common phrase! She does talk a lot in general 🤣😍
I totally love your viceos. Funny and informative! I will be waiting with baited breath for your next video in case you have been poisoned!!! But like you suggest the fish are a good sign! If you ever want to come to one of our Whitby Wellbeing saunas drop me a message!
Thank you! ♥ I must be at least part fish by now, so perhaps I'm immune?! 🐟🤣 Day 3 and no signs of imminent death! 😃
No idea about that sign with Fear written on it. Always makes me smile though. Agree about that junction. Needs lights. Great vlog 👍
I'm sure these junctions are designed by people who have never seen a car. Driving home late at night is much easier!
Definitely Red Kite's @ Dick Hudsons...classic swooping behaviour... Hope you have an industrial power shower! 🚿 😂
I went for a skin transplant. Even a bleach bath wasn't enough! 🤮🤣
@@WalksWaterfallsWildSwims-uz3db 😂
Your very welcome Helen , we had a great time. Thanks for not showing out camp. We tidied up and didn't leave a trace. We had a good rest of the day but I had bad daydreams of the rugby team sneaking back to be camp at camp😂
That's a good find, well done 👍
#1 view. My UA-cam first 😁
You win a waterfall! 🤣
Hi Helen , it's Jamie you met later on in the day, hope me and Fraser didn't ruin your next video. It was a real pleasure to meet you , the camera really doesn't do you justice x
Hey! Nooo, you definitely didn't ruin the video! I just failed to get any shots of the fun scramble there and back 🤣 But I did get a couple of shots at the waterfall, so I managed to put something together. It was great to meet you both! Hope the rest of your weekend was just as good! x
Always a joy to be in your company, thanks for sharing x
Whilst out walking in the peaks I've always made it a policy of mine to be happy with the "not dying" bit 😂 Driven that road (literally) hundreds of times and never realised what was in the bottom of the valley.😮 Thanks for another enjoyable exploration 👍
Lovely channel
Perfect. Thanks.
Did you bump into Mr Kidick... Don to his friends 🤣 🤣
🤣🤣🤣
When are you going international?
I'll be going to Wales in a couple of months, if that counts! 🤣
@@WalksWaterfallsWildSwims-uz3db It does! It's outside of Yorkshire!
Loving your videos, very interesting the walks and waterfalls.😊
Thank you! ♥
You deserve the Stannington Neds bovver boots
Always a joy to be in your company on your videos Helen. And you found some cracking waterfalls. As for the golfers..what a load of balls. I'm not filming at the moment as about to move house but will get back to it asap. In the meantime time I very much enjoy your outings. 😍
Hope the house move goes well! You'll definitely need some waterfall therapy after that!
this is a great place to swim. Fab video
😍💎
Looks wonderful xxxxxx
You went dinosaurs hunting without me. Not fair. Did you find them all.i do adore your cute smile face at the of the video.❤😎🥰 xxx luka
What a fantastic place thank you. Had a great walk around today very sunny, no wind so peaceful and quiet. Too peaceful to let my noisy dogs swim and disturb people there. Did the circumference just a great place.
0:34 Can he swim in it ? yes he beat you to it. 🐶
What's brown and sounds like a bell?...... DUNG! Oh please yourselves... Another gem in your smashing style and company 😍
🤣🤣🤣 I'm sure it's a lovely place!
Love this video of another of our local reservoirs...Lovely walk around Agden & Damflask. The Plough pub in Lower Bradfield serves great food and beer or the Schoolroom Cafe/Bistro is good too. 🍻 Agden itself is very very popular with wild swimmers...we're tripping over them most times we do the walk 😂
I really should have done the walk around Damflask too while I was there. It looked lovely from a distance! I was surprised to see so many swimmers there at 15 degrees. It must be like Blackpool on a hot day! 🤣
Old Horns Inn High Bradfield is a great pub lots of choice too, Plough wasn’t great when there last. Damflask brilliant to walk round .
There were a lot there today
So difficult to watch due to speeding so much of the video which is a pity because I was looking forward to see more of North Landing.
Brilliant, reminded me of my visit, and a magical waterfall, a hidden gem. I very much enjoyed your video Helen 😍
I've been to Burnsall so many times but never done the walk to Hebden. The whole walk was lovely and Scale Haw is definitely worth it! ♥
Yes some rivers are generally a bit akey but with the levels of whoopsie being dumped in them by the scumbag water companies are you really that confident of their swimability?
I would never stick my head under! 😆 There's a great new website that shows when the storm overflows have discharged into the rivers in Yorkshire to avoid swimming in extra sewage. (Like every day this week!) Thanks for reminding me to stick the link in the description! 😃
I used to patrol York, I wanted to be Row boat cop! ...oh please yourselves.. I used to describe the Minster to tourists as an erection of Gothic proportions 😂
🤣🤣🤣 I'm definitely stealing those!
You are 100% lost the plot. 😂. You are chicken of Height ha ha 😂. You need to learn to conquer your fear of heights. Ha ha 😂 xxxx luka
Gorgeous video and gorgeous you !
Thank you! ♥
Looks beautiful no idea why I’ve never been there,
It's the perfect location for a hot day! ♥
Can I swim in it ? every vid 😂 ..Classic. 3:31 Bit of info for you, that’s one part where they took Brady & Hindley back to search for one of their victims buried 1964. See the sheep pens.
Oh wow, I had no idea! That's a great fact, thanks!
@@WalksWaterfallsWildSwims-uz3db Your welcome, see Folly Dolly falls ( Meltham ) were not at their best when you went !. Could you swim in it ? Nope .
Somebody must have been siphoning the water away that day! 😆
I could never swim in a reservoir ... the thought of getting sucked down the outlet pipe gives me the willys!
😆 I'd never swim near the dam wall, tower, or any other man-made structures!
😍🌧️🏊💎👍 I'm appalled that YW are now charging to park!! Clearly their priorities are profits and pay bonuses for fat cat bosses and greedy shareholders who lets face it get the water for free and for the most the infrastructure was inherited from Victorian/ Edwardian times. Their record re pollution is frankly appalling. Good luck to you all, I say! I took took a walk on Sunday despite the rain around Ripon canal etc. ❤
It's shocking. Nature should be free for all to enjoy, walking and swimming!
I just saw your car door was open and I was thinking what if you forget to close it and the ducks and geese might jump in your car. 😂 bet you didn’t have ducks or geese crap on your car while went swimming 😂 xxx luka
