What a fantastic film. I’ve been watching your adventure for along time, but I think this might be my first comment. The reason is that you said something wise, beyond your years, and I wanted to reinforce the thought in you. You are young, you’re fit, exploit it and see the world. About eighteen months ago I was in my 20s and did everything I thought was expected of me. The magic eighteen months later and I’m in my mid fifties, fat and… trapped by my circumstances and missed out on your experiences. To see you so fulfilled makes me sad for me but happy for you. Keep doing what you’re doing, keep pushing yourself to experience, and please keep sharing it with those who can’t have it. And if you’re ever in the NW I’ll buy you a coffee pal. Thank you.
Such a sweet comment! Remember it’s never too late to start exploring still (if you are physically able to of course) 🫶
Hey, I'm also in my mid-fifties and I'm heading to Portugal this friday to walk a part of the Fishermans Trail. It's never to late, you just have to make it happen 🙂
Happy hiking

I will inform my doctors and surgeons that there’s nothing preventing me doing this, it’s in my head and I just need to make it happen. I’m sure they won’t think it’s remotely patronising of you. Now I know I just lack commitment I’m going to learn to fly, just by flapping my arms and the belief I can make it happen. I will also be refunding the NHS for my last month long stay in hospital.
@@1967AJBStay cool, man. How should I know that you are having some medical conditions... There are countless people out there who take their age as an excuse. If you are not one of them than sorry for that. Nevertheless it's not necessary to spit your sarcasm on me...
Happy day...
@@1967AJBvery immature reply,how would the person know you are disabled,it was obviously meant as a positive pick me up message!👎
Keep doing it for as long as you can Liam, when I was your age I used to think when I retire I will do this that or the other, I took early retirement then health issues kicked in so a lifetime of dreams are just dreams and not memories like you are making for yourself, the best I can do now is watch others doing my dreams on you tube.
You're inspiring so many of us Liam! Thank you for everything. I even keep rewatching your old videos just relaxing after long days of work. One day I'll stop by and treat you for fish and chips and an ice cold beer.
I've honestly never seen anyone so genuinely happy from walking, as the saying goes "its the simple things in life"
Great videos mate been watching for some time now but I just thought I'd leave this comment
Ah man, I'd been bound for over a week with vertigo! So grateful to be able to walk again, keep walking whilst we can! 🤩
I was out on a 25 mile, cold, wet and windy coastal walk myself today, it was pretty grim at times, though I knew I'd be coming home to some decent food, a shower and another of your videos. None of them disappointed. Absolutely beautiful stuff yet again, you always seem to capture something very special, the very essence of outdoor life, of being at one with nature.
Always brilliant Liam. This was no exception , pure escapism. Fantastic
Looks amazing. You remind me to stop up and enjoy the small things we so often take for granted
You have a way with words and it makes your videos so enjoyable to watch. Keep on hiking!
What a lovely walk, thanks for sharing.
Superb drone shots.
Another cracking video. Thank you. ❤ Take care, be safe. Dorset, UK
140 miles of great adventure!! You weren't kidding about the weather conditions even that didn't take away from the gorgeous scenery. Just like life beautiful yet scary at times. Thanks for another great one!!💖
Battle of Cape St Vincent (1797) - great naval victory. Also great surfing beaches around there.
Another great video Liam. It's always a pleasure to spend some time enjoying your adventures. Thanks as always!
Its nice being able to see places around Europe from home through your videos, thank you.
Mate, you're everywhere I am at the wrong time! You walked around my dogwalking spot at the holme fen, you walked the country I grew up in in Cyprus and now you're walking my regular escape as I try to fix up my sailboat in Lagos. In a couple years if you fancy trying out some sailing in and around the carribbean or south america, hmu
Great to see this beautiful scenic walk along the coast,a lot easier than many more mountainous ones you have tackled.Nice one😊
As usual a great vid Liam. Love your style and filming. Very relaxing to watch and very interesting. Makes me wanna drop everything and go hiking
I love living vicariously via you. Your trips are brilliant. I sometimes really wish I didn't have kids and could do this stuff. I should have done it when younger. Enjoyed whilst you still can.
I’m excited to watch, it’s on my bucket list.
Thanks again Liam. All the best for the next adventure.
Thanks Liam that was really great to watch! It's been years since I've been to the Algarve.
What I love the most about you is you are really grateful 🙏 you say you're grateful, your face and smile show you're grateful. Everyone needs a bit of that Liam pill👌
Your videos are so beautiful, rejuvenating, and calming- thank you Liam. Keep on walking :)
We live in Portugal on lisbon coast, great walking
.😊
What a superb trail and fantastic in the early spring. The Liam effect strikes again with the ability to change the weather.
Great video, really enjoyed this Liam. Was strange seeing the church at the beginning. I recognised this straight away as the church the McCann's were pictured at way back when the disapeance happened.
What a stunning walk anyway, great video
Another great video Liam. I walked the Fishermans Trail about 10 years ago with a friend of mine and it's honestly one of the most beautiful coastlines I've been to. We stayed in villages each night and were treated to great food, wine and of course the Portuguese brandy which is second to none. It's nice to hear someone appreciate how lucky they are just to have the freedom and health to be able to walk for a long distance... not everyone get this opportunity, so definitely something to appreciate. Keep on walking...
Absolutely brilliant. The biggest compliment I can give you is that I hope my 2 year old son grows up to be just like you. Keep doing what you're doing 👍🏻
Hey Liam. You are such a positive inspiration to people. I have done walking holidays in Madiera but never mainland Portugal. It looks beautiful.
P.S. Portugal has a lot of wild fires in summer so definitely safer wild camping in the off season.
Great video Liam as always.. I went to Portugal many years ago and it is a beautiful country with warm and friendly people. Keep up the great work mate love your channel.. ⛺️
Love the film. I can almost feel the sun and taste that coffee.
And just when you needed it, hotel room. That was perfect timing. I can't imagine camping out in the thick rain. Congratulations on another epic adventure. I wonder if you get sad as the destination approaches. I sure was. What a beautiful country. Well done!
Class mate. I’m surprised you haven’t been approached by TV producers as this is so inspiring and simple. You’re right there is nothing better than breathing in sea air in the morning, wise words!
Love your adventures happy life!❤🎉
Incredible stuff as always Liam. Love how simple you keep it and how you don’t change for views or clicks. Most genuine guy on the platform and deserve all the recognition there is to gain. Keep on keeping on mate and I’ll keep watching 👍🏼
Honestly this part of portugal (including the rain) feels just like here in Cornwall with less stone buildings
Liam, love watching your hiking travels, beautiful places you travel to, the simplicity you keep to and yet you have the most amazing travel. Really enjoy your filming and narration of each journey.
Thankyou for sharing your unique and fabulous journeys, great content. 💯❤
Your enthusiasm is infectious! How about another walk in La Palma? I watched the video you made there but there is so much more to see!
Looks like our summer already but these beaches❤
got to say bro i love these videos, makes me want to get out and walk
Great trip Liam! Those little beaches were gorgeous, and so quiet in the off- season!
Wonderful video. You are a brave man!
Great video Liam alway look forward to your adventures
Brilliant. loved every minute of it. You were so so lucky to find that hotel, life is going your way young man.
Thanks for sharing this with us.
Love it mate, been watching a while and you always keep me waiting for the next video. Cheers
Oooh I did a bit of this - near Vila Nova de Milfontes - last October. Hard going in the sandy soil! 😢 but amazing scenery.
Also did the stretch between Lagos and Burgau a few days later.
Looking forward to watching this when I get a bit of spare time 👍🏻
Good to see you and nice video mate, cant wait to see the next 🤘
Amazing video and such an amazing place 🎉
Humble,positive,content💚
Great video. I'll be starting the fisherman's trail on Sunday ;)
God bless you Liam
Superb as always
Another fantastic walk and chat. You truly are an inspiration
I always look forward to your next video Liam. Top work. It looks like a beautiful place!
Going back here at the end of the month can’t wait thanks Liam for wetting my appetite 😊
Fair play to you Liam! I like to think of myself as a bit of an adventurer, but I aint got nothing on you! 😅I’m sure there are plenty of people who’d love to do what you’re doing, but would never have the balls to jump in.
Another superbly produced video, cracking watch as always 👌🏼
I really enjoy your movies, the amount of hard work you put into it for us viewers is amazing so than you very much 👍👍
I wish I was at the level of your talent one day.
Thank you once again Liam 🎉 great work 👍👍👍
Absolutely loved the vid! Such an inspiration for me to get out more. Thanks to you I’ve been out for walks more often! 🫶🏼🫶🏼
Please can you show some behind the scenes - how do you get from the airport to the start point? How are you navigating? Would love to see it!
I walked a small part recently. Took a bus from Lagos to Praia da Luz and walked back.
Good work man. Always fab videos.
Excellent video Liam 🇬🇧👍⭐⭐⭐⭐
Should come to Trough of Bowlands. Great walks, beautiful area. Did a walk today, legs aching but remembered did leg workout in the morning! I enjoy the area, landscape, quietness.
Another fantastic film Liam, I hate having to wait for the next one though
So happy you enjoy Portugal ❤
Hope you come back soon 😊
Maybe check out our trails in Viseu and Bragança, quite different landscapes and sceneries 🤩
Great story teller ❤
Very nice and relaxing video
I find your videos strangely relaxing, don’t know why but there we go. It would be interesting to know how far or how many hours you have walked occasionally though, for a sense of scale. Can’t wait until the next one.
Legend
Brill film Liam, I've always fancied Portugal (not sure I've got the confidence to wild camp on my own) but do a solo hike 👍🥰
Allways a pleasure!
Very inspiring video, thanks! Keep up the good work
Love your videos they are so relaxing. Have you ever considered qn adventure in British Columbia Canada. Amqzing adventures to be had. I can just see you doing the west coast trail on vancouver island. You would love it
Amazing, another great video!
Hey Liam. What airport did you go to in Portugal. And how did you get to your start point , from the airport ? And keep up the amazing work you are doing. Keep on walking 🚶 Take care
I assume he landed in Faro International Airport, then took the train frim Faro to Lagos where he seems to have started his hike.
I would assume he took the plane in Lisbon for his way back to the UK.
(only assumptions / educated guessing)
Nice one❤
Brilliant liam,you are living your best life lad! 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Roll on the next adventure Liam.
I'm Thinking about walking the same trail and am wondering how you felt wildcamping even though it's illegal in Portugal?
Another great video
Lovely stuff really enjoyed it I would like to see you do the Appalachian Trail Liam that would be awesome!
Don't go near the AT Liam. We love what you are doing too much.
Can you read my mind? This is exactly what I need rn
i wasn't ready for this🤯
Very nice like. How safe the trail and from witch point start .
Thanks
Great video Liam. What time of year was this?
Nice video!
Are you at the Outdoor Expo in Birmingham this weekend mate?
Living the dream bro. Did u take your backpack on as hand luggage? Need to get myself to Europe from Manchester. Not 100% sure if Ryanair will allow it though
Looked a nice walk pal……I think they are getting too easy for you though and you need a tough challenge like you used to do 😀😉
Best wishes
Can you do the South West Coastal Path??
Liam do you walk back to the airport - how cools that ❤😊
Is there any other walking channel as good as this? I certainly like this one but maybe there are others I am unaware of and missing out on if anyone has any suggestion's?
Worse rain than UK!🤔🤪🥴😵💫🤯Poor you! X
Fantastic video buddy , definitely a walk I would love to do , what trainers 👟 are you hiking with ?
What make is your tent Liam?
Woo Hoo. Popcorn time :)
Hey dude, I'm planning in two weeks to do exactly the same but different area. Is it fairly safe to sleep rough in the countryside?
❤
Hi. I just want to ask if was okay to camp wild, because here in Portugal, it’s not allowed, so I just wanted to know if you had any trouble with police or something. Thank you. Keep going
I want to go hiking but dont have anyone to go with sadly. I wouldn't go on my own.
