  • This 3-night backpacking trip in the Carneddau Mountains of Snowdonia was one of the best things I have ever done in my life.. it filled me with immeasurable joy and set my soul on fire. I will never forget it! Waterfalls, swims, summits, valleys & blissful beauty; I really hope you enjoy coming along with me on this journey through the wild places😊
    *Please bear in mind that this trip took place during lovely dry, summer weather. This route will be very different in bad weather, or in colder & wetter months and is likely to be treacherous in places. Always evaluate according to the conditions at the time

    Brilliant video wild trekking good name for it.

    as I commented there it took me back 50 years when myself and a few friends were walking and camping those same trails.
    We tried the 14 peaks walk a few times but weather always got in the way :)
    Eventually we did it but over 2 days not one.

I'm just an old codger of 77 years so my days of hiking and wild-camping are over, but, as you say, the memories DO stay with you for a lifetime. You are such an inspiration, and your editing skills, music-choices are the best; but most of all, what shines through is your beautiful personality. Making memories is surely what life's about eh.

    Absolutely loved this one! The bit at the end... explaining your everyday life and having moments of being on adventure... made me tear up a bit! It's so easy to get lost in the day to day... especially being a parent (on top of all the other adult responsibilities), there's always so much to do for everyone else, we often forget about ourselves. I've actually learned allot from you channel.... not just the adventure bits, but also reminding me to turn inward, to be content/find happiness within myself, and enjoy the little things just as much if not more than the big things. It's not about having all these expensive material things, but the happiness and gratitude of the everyday.

    Oh Claire, the ending brought a tear to my eye, you are such a beautiful person in and out and your videos make my heart glad. The smile on your son’s face tells you exactly what a wonderful person you are, indeed it was his smile that did it for me, you’re doing a wonderful job as Mum, provider and adventurer.
    If truth be known, your videos are my guilty pleasure; my comfort food. Having 10 grandchildren and constantly looking after 3, 4 or 5 of them on a daily basis is stressful at times. One in particular, (21 month old) is so clingy to me that he is a proper Gang’s boy and a handful at times. At the end of a long day looking after the grandchildren your videos totally de-stress me and take me to a different world. So thank you Claire for sharing your wonderful videos and the little snippets of your life. You are far from ordinary, you’re extraordinary. Your sparkling personality outshines that of any diamond.
    Enjoy the rest of your week Claire and thank you once again. 🐻 🌿⛺️

      Woww that is a lot of grandchildren!! So lovely but also must be hard for you.. I'm quite content being a mum-of-one (and a lover of peace 😄) so I have the most respect for those raising or looking after many little ones at once. I remember the clingy age, deffo feel for you haha!
      Glad you manage a bit of respite at the end of the day, wishing you rest and a bit of tranquility 🤗 it is an amazing thing that you're doing

You spend lots of time with magnificent views whereas my time is frequently spent bashing through dense bushland with the views earned only after breaking out onto alpine heath above 1000m asl. Inspiring videos. Look forward to those that follow.

    Thank you for bringing us along on your adventures Claire! I've just recently found your channel and every one of your videos puts a smile on my face. I've even found myself repeating a couple of phrases you've coined,,, like "Sooooo Pretty!" or "Hello Squirrel Friend!" Looking forward to you reaching 100,000 subscribers. It shouldn't be long now. Much love from Canada!

    Claire, what can I say, other than this has to be one of your very best adventures yet. Stunning sunsets, underwater shots, excellent drone footage and absolutely gorgeous scenery. You've certainly come a long long way since your very first video, and now you're over 95k subs. As far as I'm concerned you're up there with the best youtubers already. I cant wait for your next adventure xx

    Hi, Claire!
    Hooray!!!!! What a wonderful adventure for you!!! What a glorious first night's sunset! Wow! It was a spectacular welcome back to the mountains and your first night's camp.
    I loved the waterfalls and the gorgeous flowers--the foxgloves are elegant, and the little star-shaped flowers are delicate and whimsical. You were even blessed with a froggy trail pal! 😄
    The sunsets were breathtaking! I'm so happy for you that you had plenty of water to refresh you, both inside and out! I love your raised open-arms expressions of pure Joy, exhilaration, accomplishment, and freedom! I always get goosebumps during those shots.
    And at the end, your introspections of your life, your love for your son, and the beauty of living, brought more goosebumps and a little misty-ness to my eyes, to be honest. Thank you for that! Thank you for the Joy you bring to my heart! You are a beautiful Soul, Claire, and I am grateful for you. Happy Trails, Wild One! 😊❤
