Well you're in good company with me 😁 I've been obsessed since I was a kid with looking at the paranormal stories in the area. I have an 'episode' planned for the Longdendale Lights too! It's one of the best for sure and seems to occur all up the valley from beyond Crowden to the Devil's Elbow as you say. I just thought 3 stories filmed from this spot was enough (still got one more to put up) I think I'll be doing a few locations to cover them all when I get to actually recording it. A big day out no doubt!

@@WarrenofWalks sounds good, but yeah definitely a big day out. So many locations I wouldn't even know where to start

😅 nor do I. I'm hoping it'll become obvious once I'm writing the story order out!

Ta very much John! I think every member of my family regularly goes there, it's a great place for some fresh air and to be pecked by a goose 😁 The Mandarins really are great. I don't remember them being there when I was a child, but they seem to be a permanent fixture nowadays!

@@WarrenofWalks a lot of migrate birds landed from Canada and never went home.there are a few grey wagtails there if your lucky enough to witness them and your right warren about not seeing all these beautiful spieces.

Ah ok, I didn't know that! It does seem to have a higher than average mixture of birds there. It's one of the few places I see the coot and moorhen nests out where you can see them in springtime. I'll have to look up and look out for the grey wagtails!

Thanks very much John! I'm glad you liked it. There's a few spots you can sit on boulders and watch the world go by. That bendy road always has people going by in their weekend tourers 😁

Thanks @atrampinthehills.841 really pleased you enjoyed it! Chalk one up for Nell! 😄 It's one of my favourite places to go, Bramah Edge. Partly because it's so quiet, but also because of the view, rocks, trees... great spot for a bit of everything.

Ah I'm glad you spotted them @Herbetella I was a bit disappointed to not be able to film more of them at the top as I was having issues with a motor on my gimbal, and the wind was playing havoc. But I managed a decent selection after editing all the wonky sections out.

Thanks @atrampinthehills.841 I appreciate that! It really is an excellent way up, there's a bit of everything along the way and the views are great.

You're most welcome @susanacabo6 It's a lovely place! I'd find it hard to not visit weekly if I lived nearby. 😊

Thank you very much! I just subscribed to your channel after a quick look. It looks like I'd enjoy a lot of your videos.

Thanks very much John! Hopefully these will be more 'finishable' 😅 but I'll still be putting my walking videos together as usual.

Ah really! Maybe they were the same 2 then. The sound on here doesn't do them justice 😁

Thank you! It's so nice I went twice in one day :-D I recommend it highly.

@@WarrenofWalks 🥰

Thank you very much @vividspace1225 I'll be sure to watch some of your videos. I'd like to see some similar walks in Korea!

You're very welcome. Thanks for watching! I do try to make my videos as close to my experience there as possible, so that's nice to hear :)

You're most welcome. Thanks for watching!

Thanks very much @CB-st6bo Much appreciated!! In terms of 'wild camping' out there, there isn't a great deal of choice on Lantern Pike itself. But the field with the trees in the video at the top (west side of the peak near the drystone wall) is the only spot I would say isn't obviously exposed. Otherwise I think it would be across the way (east) to the Leygatehead Moor/Kinder side of the road. In terms of paid for campsites, I think there's only Hayfield Campsite or Chinley a bit further down the road is supposed to have a nice one, very close to Chinley Churn.

Cheers John! and that's most excellent of you. I very much appreciate the boost, people are cautious with those subscriptions aren't they 😄 I caved in the other day and filmed a shorter video with my own fizzog in to see if it makes a difference. So we'll see if that costs me a few followers 😂 the quiet walks will remain my focus though!

​I think for some reason Warren your channel and mine alike are getting downgraded because of viewer retention ... We will sort this and get on the right path ​@@WarrenofWalks

Ah ok, I suppose I'm not getting around that with hour long quiet trail videos! I should do some reading up on UA-cam algorithms, seems to be more about playing the system than making genuine content doesn't it! We'll figure it out as you say... I'd still rather stick to making things I like, than pretend drama videos for clicks.

Absolutely warren totally agree, if a number of people click on then click off that's when UA-cam automatically downgrade the content.i have been on here 10 years now and I have learned a lot about the logistics side.your putting out great videos and don't change anything 👍​@@WarrenofWalks

Cheers John, I will do! same applies to you too, I enjoy your videos, keep making what you enjoy. Unfortunately it's what I was expecting to happen to my videos, but in a positive way. I thought they'd be useful to dip in and out of or for reference. I didn't realise it was such an awkward system of 'rules' so you aren't buried. I'll do more reading today on the details 👍

It is isn't it. Apparently, it's a 300-foot drop with them all combined! A very nice place to be.

Thank you! It is a beautiful place and the waterfall is an impressive sight.

Thanks @Ervinslens it's a small place with big views. I was very lucky to have it to myself!

:-D I'd have had no excuses if it fell in on me with the big sign!

Ah thanks very much! I hadn't looked at it like that, but now you mention it I can absolutely see it. It's just missing the crane flying over! There's what might be a Red Kite flying by at one point, that might have to do :)

@@WarrenofWalks yes. I watched the video over and over again. I like the combination of the wild place and the rhododendrons blooming. Thanks for making this video.

Absolutely my pleasure! I enjoyed the whole process of making it. Thank you for watching it multiple times! It's exactly how I hoped these videos would be enjoyed.

@@WarrenofWalks excellently done

Thanks very much @PAOLO_01 I was quite happy to find this place!

@@WarrenofWalks 👍♥️

@Renacd122 You're most welcome! And thank you very much, that's grand of you to say!

Thanks @Herbetella That's nice of you to say. And thanks for watching again!

I've considered doing that lots of times. I've still not decided for sure whether I want to, or whether to leave them as simple as possible.. just as a calm and no-nonsense experience. But I can still add the start points to the description for now until I decide once and for all!

Ok, OS Maps Grid Ref is: SK 0237 9099. Or Just off Monk's Rd opposite Plainsteads Farm :-D

It's very nice! Approaching it you wouldn't think it was tucked away there. But there's a lot to see down there in a relatively compact place. Lots of green, lots of water! :-D

Cheers John, I'm glad you enjoyed it. It's nice to know people who enjoy the outdoors as I do appreciate the videos!

@@WarrenofWalks definitely there's people out there it's just us small channels don't get shared out enough

Indeed, it's hard to stand out in all the noise. But I'd take a small channel's niche video over all the clickbait nonsense every time.

@@WarrenofWalks 💯 percent every time .

Thanks very much @ervinslens, mission accomplished then.

Ta very much @wildaboutadventure that's my goal with most of these videos, almost like a playback of how I like to enjoy them by myself. And I use a Fujifilm X-T4 to record them. It was already my photography camera, so now it's a workhorse :-D

@freestyletowers2617 Thank you! It was an especially nice day for that walk.

Cheers @russell4827 That's sounds an interesting route, and substantial! I bet it took in all kinds of inbetween-area views. I've walked out from atop 'Indian's Head' to Mottram, but I've not walked in from any Ashton/Mossley routes. And my camera setup is a bit of a back breaker.. it's a Fuji mirrorless camera and a gimbal with a big fluffy mic on top, it does become a mild form of torture a few hours in 😅 I appreciate the understanding!

@@WarrenofWalks I find its easier to get to the top of the path that goes from Alphin Pike to Indians head and along to Chew , by going over the moors from Buckton Castle,the hill that overlooks Carrbrook .Best wishes mate .

I've spent years wandering around those reservoirs but I've never tried that. I'll definitely give it more research and look at having a go myself. Thanks for the inspiration Russell! Best wishes to you too. And thanks for watching the video!

That's lovely to hear @Herbertella I'm glad you enjoyed it! I find this kind of thing fascinating myself when it's other people's corner of the world. I do enjoy a slow detailed look around somewhere I've never been to. Especially the less well known spots. And I cut so much rock out of the video thinking it wouldn't be much interest to anyone else.. 😅

Thank you @wmanad8479, it's a very nice place for a peaceful walk

Thanks @ervinslens it's a nice secluded spot just outside the villages that surround it.

Thanks very much @lakedistrictcampingwitAce I'll be sure to have a look!

Thank you very much @ervinslens some of the nicest places are tucked away in small areas.

Thank you @ervinslens I appreciate you taking the time to watch!

It's a nice video man.

​@@WarrenofWalks thank you for the share great video. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Thanks @lillianakarapas9112! I'm trying to make these videos as close to a real quiet walk as I can.

Thank you @drewbrown1525 I'm glad you liked it! Since my first visit I've noticed a few ways up. This one starts from the main road through Hayfield going towards Chinley. I don't think the track has a name but it's just after the speed camera on your right. If you get to the 50mph sign you've gone too far up. If you search for 'Phoside Farm' on your map of choice, it should be fairly obvious to track back to the road.

@@WarrenofWalks thanks Warren. A much quieter side of the Peaks but stunning views👍

@@drewbrown1525 it really is, a great choice for avoiding the crowds and looking out towards some of the busier sights from a distance 🙂

Ah thanks John! That's excellent of you to say. I've had a slow couple of months with weather and work crossovers, but I've got more on the way once they're edited. Hopefully it will build to a nice archive eventually.

@@WarrenofWalks absolutely juggling filming and work as I well know.cheers for now John 👍👏

Cheers @overthehilloutdoors it's nice to know someone watched it and enjoyed it!

I did in fact say it skirts the outer edge of the Peak District. As in close-by. But thanks for the additional info, if not quite a correction 👍

Thank you @korea.festival that's very nice of you to say. There's plenty more to come. Have a nice day too! (sorry about the slow reply, I've had the flu!)

Thank you @ervinslens. It's always a nice place to walk, but the horses are a nice reason to stop and watch for a while.

A grouse! They love waiting until you get close before they burst out of the heather screaming
