- Опубліковано 8 чер 2021
- The very first day of Walking Ireland Way. In this video I start walking from near Ballycastle In County Antrim, Northern Ireland.
About the Walk: I am walking The Ireland Way for the next five weeks. The Ireland Way is a long distance path (1,000km) that connects a series of hiking trails between the north and south of Ireland. I will begin walking at the Giants Causeway and finish the trip in Castletownbere in County Cork.

Dude, this is the most refreshing thing I've seen on the Internet in a long time. Thank you.
Pristine country☘️
Just discovered this video because I was looking to be inspired to hike in Ireland or Scotland. In deep need of rejuvenation and your lovely, positive demeanor and honest sharing is providing a great push for my next adventure. You are right: we are so privileged but that does not mean we should not enjoy these opportunities to be enlivened. As we get more balanced, we hopefully will be more able to help those around us who might not be able to get away into nature. Thank you and good luck!
So excited to journey along with you. Missing Ireland sooo much!
Thank you Allegra. Ireland is still waiting for you 🍀
Me too Allegra. 💚
I'm planning to hike the Kerry Way next summer. Looking forward to visiting Ireland for the first time! Excited to follow your journey. Thanks for being open about your mental health. It's been a big struggle for me this past year, too. After walking the Camino in 2019, I am in need of another long distance walk! Balm for the soul. 💚
Brilliant Lindsay. I’m going back to the Camino very soon :) thanks very much and hoping you get over here ASAP ✌️
Thanks for doing this. Although I many never get back to Ireland, home of my ancestors, I will follow and enjoy. Recovering from this past year, death, pandemic, sepsis, job loss, health challenges, I envy you on a special journey. Best to you. Maybe someday, I can return
Ballintoy is my favorite village in Ireland . . .
It is now St. Patrick’s day here in Ontario. Wishin you safe travels now in 2024.

Looking forward to watching your trip Derek! Not been able to get home to Ireland since 2019, so your daily vids will surely help to whet the appetite until we can hopefully get back later in the Summer or Autumn 🇮🇪🇮🇪
I just realised I was a exactly where you were at the start of the video on a hike myself.
I just picked up a tent with the plan of giving some wild camping a go, youtubers like yourself are great for inspiration, looking forward to watching the rest of this journey, fair play.
Looking forward to enjoying the journey with you.
My sister just recently introduced me to your videos and I so enjoy them. There is just nothing that compares to being out walking in nature to help us feel our best, physically and mentally. Thanks for sharing your journeys. ❤️ Stay safe.

What a video to start, I know that anxious feeling before starting a long distance hike well, It doesn’t last long and you are into the rhythm of it. Have a fantastic adventure, looking forward to the next video already.
Appreciate it Ray :)
Loving your first day. This is my home county so a little biased. Sorry the cows didn’t come down to greet you on Whitepark Bay beach. 😀 best of luck with the rest of your trip !
Great to see your journey got off to a good start. The anxiety is something i can relate to, glad to hear yours has subsided throughout the day. Your tent looks like a comfortable home away from home. All the best 👍
Thank you. Yes a rocky start but all good. Loving the tent :)
