    I'm an American who has had the privilege of living here for 20 years, and I have been to most parts of this walk. To experience this physically is breathtaking, to say the least. The Lake District is my personal favourite part of the country but I have to tell you, there is so much to see and appreciate throughout the country.

    This may very well be our new favorite United Kingdom reaction video to date! The English Countryside is so beautiful! This is an incredibly relaxing video and a true bucket list item for us both! Maybe not the full Coast to Coast walk but part of it. Starting from St. Bees and ending in Robin Hood's Bay. Going through the Lake District to farms & fields surrounded by sheep, lakes and stunning sunsets. This is why we fell in love with the UK. This is everything! This is jaw-dropping! This is the English Countryside! Please enjoy! Thanks to each of YOU for watching!

      Given how much you enjoyed this you will have to look at a video of someone doing Lands End to John o’Groats (1200 miles from Cornwall to the north of Scotland). You would probably also like the relatively short (84 miles)but both very scenic and historic Hadrian’s wall walk from Newcastle to Carlisle.

This is the one I wanted to do, but I don't think my knees would stand up to it now :- ua-cam.com/video/w8YkXEdr9Ns/v-deo.html&ab_channel=SetToHike

      ​@TheNatashaDebbieShow As much as this is a beautiful part of England. You guys have some incredible nature and scenery in America. I remember going to Yosemite National park as well as The Rocky Mountains in Colorado and Mount Hood in Oregon, which is an 11'000 foot volcano. We dont have any mountain ranges anywhere near the size or elevation you guys have in America. Obviously the Western US states have more beautiful scenery in general. I think you guys said you lived in Ohio. This part ot England is the most rural and least densely populated. Once you get to Leeds and all the way down to Sheffield and Manchester it is extremely urbanised and built up whereas north of Leeds is very rural. You should also look at the spa towns of Ilkley and Harrogate which are on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales. There is also a place called The Strid near an old 12th Century Monastary, which is part of the River Wharfe which is known as the most dangerous stretch of water in the World, you read that right. It has a 100% fatality rate and nobody who has ever swam in there has ever come out alive, apparently the heir to a royal died swimming in there in the 12th Century.

    Against infection and the hand of war,

    I cycled this route for charity about 12 years ago.
    I'd been training for a year beforehand though, but for good reason - I was wiped out by a 3 ton van that hit me from behind. After my recovery, I had to get back on a bike ASAP. I began training again but discovered I had ptsd from the aforementioned incident. This took some getting over, so I trained off-road for a few months before getting confidence to go back onto the road. I was doing 100+ miles in a single ride within months, and that was when I chose to do it for raising money for charities such as a local palliative care unit, the air ambulance and local paramedics.
    A month after completing the Coast2Coast, I did Land's End to John o'Groats. That was crazy!! I could barely walk for a week afterwards, but the places I saw along the way will stay with me forever, and to have to raised a lot of money for good causes in the process, some of the proudest and memorable moments of my life.
    If I'm ever feeling low, I get out there on bike or just on foot. Ramble. Pick a path I haven't travelled before and just follow it. It's meditation. It's soul soothing. Getting out into the wild is a natural antidepressant.

So I really enjoy your videos exploring Britain. It is great seeing it through your eyes,you are so right,the country is still beautiful. Well other countries are beautiful,in fact this is a jewel of a planet that we humans seem hell bent on destroying. So glad you are exploring the North of Britain, reaching out of London. So many N.Americans I meet, have had a visit to London and think they have seen Britain. I am not trying to insult London, it is great with so many national treasures but to me a northerner, I don’t really think of it as England…..it is it’s own thing. So just loved this particular video. Thanks so much for showing it and please, I hope fans of your site will recommend more.

    Hello ladies from the wilds of Central Qld Australia. Yes the countryside of the UK is truly stunningly beautiful & usually oh so green. Whitby has a special significance to Aussies as this was the birth place & beginning of the magnificent career of Lieutentant (later Captain) James Cook, the dude credited with "discovering" Australia in the converted shallow hulled ex coal carting barque "The Endeavour". He came oh so close to coming to grief on our Great Barrier Reef when he ran aground on the reef that now bears his name. He used a rare & little used naval technique called fothering which was basically using a sail to wrap around & under the ship to plug up the hole & limping to a safe harbour to repair the damage. The place where he conducted repairs is still (in English) called Cooktown & the river called The Endeavor River

      Sorry, but Captain James Cook wasn't born in Whitby, although it was an important place in his life and eventual seafaring career.
      He was born 30 odd miles away in Marton, which is now a suburb of Middlesbrough, so he is a Boro lad.

Myself & my family moved back to the UK as something very mysterious in Australia was causing me immense illness. The Aussie doctors couldn't get to the cause of why & suggested that there must be something in Australia my body couldn't deal with & so their recommendation was to pack up & return to the UK to see if my health improved.

Another time I walked and wild camped on the Ridgeway trail. It is one of the oldest trails in England having been walked by the Ironage people who lived there. There are several Ironage forts and burial mounds along the way, and the spectacular Uffington White Horse, Which has been cut into the chalk hillside and can be seen for many miles.
    I now live in Telford Shropshire and there are many opportunities to walk in the countryside here.The South Shropshire Hills are great on a clear day. You can see for miles into mid Wales and back into England. The closeness to North Wales is perfect for day trips to enjoy the hills and mountains of Snowdonia National Park and more.

    Natasha and Debbie, your reactions were a joy! As a British person it was interesting for me to see you blown away by things that - not to suggest I take them for granted, but - are relatively unexceptional in much of the UK.
    In 2012 I hiked from my Manchester home to my birthplace of Chertsey (a short way west of London), 208 miles basically a diagonal line down most of the fat bit of England. It was all on proper roads and rarely far from civilisation, but even here I got the Peak District (2 days), Leicestershire which is beautifully green and 'countrified' if less dramatic, and historic sites such as Bosworth. It was something, too, to hear accents shade off into different ones, even in the course of half a day / 10m I could hear changes.
    And the people were lovely. I can absolutely back up Liam when he's in that dark moment and 'sick of bloody moors', that's what exhaustion and your own company does and the battle is real! But everyone I met, without exception, was friendly and helpful, and each day I was hard put to it to pick a 'favourite person'. At the time there was a buzzword in the media, "Broken Britain": oh no it isn't.

    Many years ago, I walked from Llandudno in north Wales to the Gower coast in the south & back again. One way I took the high route & the other the low route. I went through the most remote part's of Wales, absolutely beautiful. It'll be interesting to see if there's any videos on UA-cam of someone doing a similar walk.
