WALKING AND WILD CAMPING ON THE NORTH DOWNS WAY | PART 3: WESTHUMBLE TO MERSTHAM | HELM 1 TENT
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 лют 2020
- For Part 3 of the North Downs Way I was joined by a subscriber and fellow UA-camr called Gary from GERfusion Outdoor Adventure Seeker. This section was only 10 miles from Westhumble to Merstham, but featured some seriously steep climbs up Box Hill and Colley Hill. We wild camped on the edge of Reigate Hill near the Inglis Memorial on Colley Hill before finishing the section off in the morning. Lots of history on this section in the form of Reigate Fort amongst others.

My neck of the woods..Excellent vid !
lovely area mate, so much history and fine views.
Great walk. Video's are great. Like how you inform us about the history of the areas you walk /visit.
Also good idea to walk it in sections . Save you talking 1 or 2 weeks from your annual holidays
😂👍 Very good
Hi Tom NDW is great for section walking , am currently walking this with my grandson(12yrs) and wild camping along the way agree this section is tough but so wonderful on a clear day. We hope to do the Merstham - Oxted section in the next couple of weeks , never know we may bump into you. Happy Trails
i've just done stage 4 and editing it now. i'm onto oxted to otford stage 5 in 2 weeks time. mate thats awesome to hear. message me if you catch up and are about to do the same section as me and we possibly do a brief meet up or whatever. atb pal.
@@TOM_OUTDOORS think you may be in front for a while but may catch up once we hit Kent will keep an eye for you and possible meet up just seen your part 4 ....happy trails
That was fun, Nice Vid Chaps, Suit You Sir's ! :)
Your best video ever Tom, and Gary cracked me up....going to subscribe to his channel right now. The history was amazing, had no clue this place existed and great photograph too. Thank you.
cheers mate, dunno tough one that, so far i'm pleased with all my NDW vids, just wanna keep em shorter but its so hard to do when theres so much to see and talk about. Gary is a top bloke, good to have around. worth a visit up there.
Lovely.
Great video mate
cheers pal.
That looked like a fun trip. Gary might have better legs, but Mark’s been certified saved a brothers life up a hill! That looks just so wrong as I type it lol. ✌️
was that when you nearly died?! lol cheers pal.
Nice one dude. Gary seems like a lad lol. Cheers for sharing. Atb James
cheers mate, yeah he had me in stitches a few times. definitely up for more meet ups and maybe even a group camp with us.
@@TOM_OUTDOORS quality!
There are certain foods I won't eat and if I find them in a meal I will eat the rest but not that... yet when it comes to booze i'm like "oh my god this is revolting... best drink it all so I can go on to another drink" rather than just leaving it lol... you reminded me of that with that IPA "i'll just have another sip though" lmao
it'd be rude not to. cheers.
Nixe one you 2 !!!!!!
looked like a right laugh.. will definitely check GER(con?!)fusion next.
views always make the climb worth it.. and you can't ask for much more in that neck of the woods.. great stuff!
cheers mate, yeah check Gary out, hes got some great vids. the homemade yurt vids are particularly entertaining!
Another great video in my neck of the woods. You find out how fit you are on that section of the NDW. I've camped there in the past and views are amazing. If you'd gone along the mole river a short distance from the stepping stones you'd have come across Dragons teeth left over from the war. The grave you came across is Quick's grave. A famous greyhound from the thirties I think. I look forward to the next part. ATB Brian.
haha yeah i realised my cardio and endurance on hills is SHOCKING! lol but we battled on. well worth it at the top. just dont ask me to run up it! wow i love those dragons teeth. i thought it was a horse lol. amazing info cheers pal.
Top show today Tom
cheers pal.
take the kids to the reigate hill all the time the walk from box hill is up and down but we have done it many times in good weather with the kids #
try doing it with camping gear on your back lol it was brutal at times. but worth the effort. i imagine one gets conditioned to it if you regularly do it lol. cheers.
TOM OUTDOORS starting at the top helps aswell lol the steps are to much for the kids lol
Nice trip you guys had there, and a lot of fun aswell by the looks of it ;-) !
cheers mate, yeah we had such a laugh, more to come.
Dont leave me tom.🧐🧐 nice video looked fun. Sorry about my drink I supplied. My rating has gone down. Enjoyed watching this series. 🙂🙂🙂 all is forgiven.
don't worry sweet cheeks, i have plenty of adventures for just you and I lol but seriously though, i do. no need to apologise mate, i always knew it wasn't going to be my favourite but you've got to try new things out. cheers, chat soon.
No idea how they work out the litre sizing...If anyone does let me know please.
I think they fill the rucksack with loads of mini polystyrene balls and that determines the litrage.
@@TOM_OUTDOORS Oh that's interesting, thanks mate.
At 32:04 y'all are making me thirsty
great cider that one, cheers.
You turning Hindu then Tom. Last three vids you have been eating ratpack Hindu. Or did you get a job lot off Del boy darn the local market, no wonder you got the squits lol. A bit of a slog, to start with, up that box hill place, you looked knackered lol. Neeext
i bought 3 of em on the cheap. used em all now i think. they werent bad but some things coulda been better. i've now got 2 huge 24 hour Arctic weather Swedish army rat packs to do. they look fab. you didnt see me after the climb up Colley Hill, that was worse. something i need to add into my gym training is more cardio and hillclimbing cos that nearly finished me. any word from Aldis yet? cheers pal.
