    I absolutely love the emotion you show in this video 🙏🏼 There are some sights that can almost reduce you to tears, and unless you have experienced it, its not something you can truly grasp. Nature is the planets natural cure for anything 🙏🏼😍
    Fantastic video, thank you Christine🙂🫶🏻

      This was definitely an emotional one for me as I always loved visiting Langdale valley as a kid but returning as an adult on my own was a beautiful experience 🙌🏻 Couldn't agree more on the healing power of the outdoors & just being surrounded by nature! Thanks for tagging along on this one too, appreciate the support 🫶🏻

    Enjoyed this video. Thanks for sharing your joy for being in the hills. I did this walk (and then up and over each of the Langdale Pikes) with my son last summer so it holds special memories for me. I just returned yesterday from a few days in Great Langdale and after many days of heavy rain Stickle Ghyll which cascades down beside the path up to the tarn was an absolute raging torrent! I could see it from down in the valley, so different from how it is in summer.

      Cheers Mark, so happy to hear you enjoyed the video & you've also got fond memories of this walk! I can imagine it's a completely different landscape after heavy rain. A couple of days in Great Langdale sounds really lovely, hope you enjoyed & take care, Christine 💚

    Excellent video! I'm not sure how many times you said the view was spectacular....but who cares!! The way you emotionally communicate with nature is the most spectacular part of your videos. It's an exhibition of health and wellbeing communicating with the natural environment.

    Great video as always 👍🏽 I've been lucky enough to do this exact walk a few times. I've camped all around this area. Pavey ark is one of my favourites 🤘🏼 it's Always different every time l go up there.. probably why l always go back 😃 amazing views.
    That wind sounded terrible 💨 Maybe a Mic might be an option ? Thanks for sharing 🤘🏼 keep up the great work 👌🏽 ATB, luco

I am keen to get back and do a longer circular route taking in several of the Langdale peaks, hopefully later this year - as you say, views are incredible 👌 and good shout on the mike, difficult to control the conditions up high so could be worth getting!

    Jake's rake on Pavey Ark is not for the faint-hearted or inexperienced climber/hiker other than that it's fantastic.
    Good video but you need a mike so the wind sound isn't as strong but pretty walk.
