    Brilliant snowy, what an accomplishment. There aren’t many people with the ability or the fortitude to complete the Cambrian way, but you are certainly one of them. Loved the series mate.

    Magic Snowy, well done mate. A bit of Cambrian fever setting in there on the last stretch🤢🤢😅. No drones, no camping, no walking, no running, keep off the grass. What are they all about🤬 hope they got there wee dog. Great watch. Cheers

      Thanks Scot, don't do this don't do that think this don't think that. I mostly don't comply! 😉😁 I'm not sure if they found the dog but they seemed confident they would eventually find him🙂

    Fantastic set of videos of the Cambrian Way, the best I've seen by far! As a bloke in his late 60's with health and mobility issues I will never be able to do this now, but watching your videos enables me to imagine myself being there with you. Delighted to see that Seb M is one of your patreons, his Cambrian Way was also excellent but he only got as far as Llandovery. I shall end up being scattered on the top of Cadair Idris as this has been my favourite mountain since I was a child

    Oh boy, what a ride! That trail sure makes you pay for every gorgeous vista in full. Well done for persevering and taking us all along! And with only minor damage to your sanity, too! 😉 (We did get the feeling that had the trail continued for much longer, we may have found you barefoot hopping on one leg with a chicken bone embedded in a flowing beard while making stickfigures of everyone at Cicerone Press to hurl off selected ridges. 😂 Long distance hiking can do that to the soul ...)

    Really enjoyed this series. The CW has been on my list of walks to do for a number of years. I love the mountains and am lucky that I can explore the Alps and Pyrenees at the moment, but, your videos have inspired me to bring forward my plans to walk it soon. A friend is going to backpack it this year and I know he's excited about it!! So, thank you for the effort of putting the videos together.

    Thanks for taking us along. I'm planning to do the Cambrian Way next year and your videos have confirmed what a great trail and adventure I have to look forward to. I enjoyed your style, properly immersing yourself into the landscape with the joys and challenges that brings. Total respect for completing it and wild camping all the way. Oh and talking of wild camping 100% behind you on the situation in England and Wales. Its just stupid. How could you get landowners permission for all those sites you used ? Like you could plan it in advance anyway. Its B********s and hopefully soon a change is on the way. I'm gonna check out some of your other trails too. Thanks for sharing. Great series.

  • @tubbatravels
    @tubbatravels 11 місяців тому +1

    Awesome, simply fantastic. It took me too long to watch the whole series but I thoroughly enjoyed every episode. I think you camped every night? no BnBs or hostals?? I don't know why that matters to me but it adds a certain something. 20 days, what an achievement. Probably more difficult that the CWT by the looks of it plus wild camping is not a given so there is that to take into account. One day when I'm tough enough like you I will attempt this trail but until then I will watch your Pennine way thing as me and the Map Girl are going to give that a go this summer. I'm also looking forward to find time to watch your SWCP. Too much to watch not enough time Snowy. Maximum respect.

    • @snowymatrix
      @snowymatrix  11 місяців тому +1
