    I spent my happiest childhood holidays in Weymouth, stopping every year with my uncle and aunt. Only been back twice in the last 40 years and watching this has made me want to go back and visit all these wonderful places again. Thanks for the reminded, just sponsored you! Cheers Alan

    Best of luck with the Mighty Hike, Trev. This is a stint on the Dorset coast that I've been meaning to do for several years... Great to see what it's actually like. A good day out, by the looks of it and good to see your brother in tow as well. All the best!

    Loved this video as I am really familiar with Portland. When I was a kid, my mum and dad always took us to the campsite you can just see in your video on the clifftops as you are climbing out of Church Ope Cove. We used to play all over the clifftops and in that old graveyard and around the castle. My younger brother and me did the walk right around Portland when I was about thirteen. Thanks for the nostalgia trip.

    Great video. The old firing range at 3.31 is usually populated by wild Portland goats. Church Ope is beautiful but the steps are a killer. The sculptures at tout quarry are great. Back when we had the bad storms 4 years ago, waves were coming over the pub at the start of the causeway .

    Cool vid! I went there in January and did a video - part of the Western coastal path was closed though, ended up striking through the few villages in the centre to reach Portland Bill - big walk. Didn't realised I missed so many sights on the Eastern side that your vid showed! Saw that bit with the stone sculptures though - very impressive!

    • @SummitOrNothing
      @SummitOrNothing  5 років тому +1

      Yeah, those sculptures were something else. I was impressed by the whole area to be honest, absolutely gorgeous. Thanks for watching!

    Such a shame I didnt know you were coming down this way, could have joined you as my house was in the back ground as you crossed the bridge to Portland. Nice to see something local and portland where I grew up. Portland has many surprises and wonders. Nice one.

    Rob is the strong silent type.
    I have a feeling you two are going to crush the charity walk. But if Trev fails to complete the full distance, he said he would film himself doing something stupid and dumb and post it on UA-cam. That is if he doesn't get another strike.
