Walking The Cotswold Way | 100 Miles To Bath, A World Heritage City
Вставка
- Опубліковано 31 лип 2024
- The Cotswold Way runs for just over 100 miles from Chipping Campden to Bath through the Cotswold Hills AONB. It passes by ancient hill forts and long barrows, through petite honey-coloured villages, and along babbling brooks. There are fields, forests, and open grassland escarpments, and overall, it makes for a rather lovely amble through English countryside.

This womans happiness is infectious!
Feeling very low today. Watching this is so, so comforting.Thank you, Abbie 💙
What an amazing Sunday afternoon film. I have, through my own stupidity allowed myself to get unfit and fat.. 20 years ago this would have been the kind of thing I was doing. I’m 48 years old and want to turn my life around and get back to doing this again. Thank you for inspiring me.
You really do have such talent for filmmaking!
I feel like I found my lost twin. I see myself in your personality so much! You inspire me. Please come to America and hike in Colorado!
Your probably her brother from another mother 😂 but do you think the cotswolds looks like Baltimore or Chicago??
Trees, sheep, horses, roads signs…..it seems you meet lots of your friends again. I like your smile and teeth:)
Such a tonic on a cold winter's night with the wind howling outside, and the rain lashing against the windows, a reminder that sunny, warm days lie not too far ahead. Great to see you back doing what you do so well, taking us with you on the trail, and making us feel every sweat soaked mile of the journey. Truly inspiring!!
I have lived in the cotswolds my entire life and I have always thought it was a boring place to live but watching this really makes me appreciate the natural beauty I live in thank u
Also I'm dyslexic so apologies about eny spelling mistakes
"I'm lost for words" ??? Abbie, never. Love your effusive enthusiasm and always a smile no matter what and the fact you are out there hiking not just reviewing gear.
Love the Cotswolds.
Thank you Abbie very inspiring walk , Cotswolds was my home for 18 years and you have made me realise how lucky l was to live there, watch many of your walks when I’m feeling low it really helps me
The Cotswolds look beautiful - all credit to you and your filmmaking for sharing it with us.
I'm not able to walk far but watching Abbie's videos makes up for being out there. God Bless you Abbie ❤
Abbie thank you for bringing me along. A stroke 4yrs ago put me in a wheelchair. So this adventure is like a breath of air.well done video. I like the detail like enjoying talking off the shoes afy a long day. Of course sharing youreal makes this feel personal.
This is wonderful to watch; you are interested in everything, show us all the good stuff and give the viewer so much to think about. Thank you, in particular, for stopping to look at the beautiful wildflowers and all the signs. xx
Hooray! at last. I was wondering what had happened to this after your 'what I took on the Cotswold way' video. I'm glad to see you did it in the correct North South direction. Interesting that you found real campsites too, most of what I've read has had the Cotswold way down as a B&B or Wild camp path and it seems a bit too populated to wild camp so it's nice to see there are more options that the published camp sites.
Writing this is hard...its just so open to others im actually not ok with sharing.Anxiety is making me forget what I want to ask and I will cry...oh why...I know what I want to ask but can't.Ana
Good to see you out and about taking us along with you. Your videos are always a joy to view.
Thank you Abbie for taking me with you on this beautiful and interesting walk.🌸Some years ago I walked a cirkular route in the Cotswolds from Cheltenham and had a lovelly time in this wonderful landscape.
It is such a pleasure to watch your videos, thanks for bringing us along for the journey.
Abbie, I have watched so many of your videos. You are such an inspiration to me! I appreciate your vulnerability and authenticity. I can’t wait to get over to Europe and hike many of the trails you have shared on your channel. Keep being you and keep up the great work! You are amazing! Thanks for all you do.
I love the Cotswold views and villages too. Thank you for doing these vlogs for so many.
Lovely to see this. I used to live in Wotton-Under-Edge, so parts of this trail are old friends to me.
Regarding your question about where the people who lived in the iron-age hill forts got their water: The permeable limestone is a cap over impermeable sandstone, which forces water out to the side a little below the top. If you look closely at the OS map, you can see a spring line contouring below the edge.
This is fantastic. I grew up in Stroud and spent large parts of my childhood on those sections of the Cotswold Way. In recent years I've spent many many hours around Broadway Tower. Absolutely wonderful to see you enjoy so many familiar places.
Just wow! What a wonderful journey you have taken us on and such wise words. Thank you for sharing🏕
Great fun to watch while I walk on my treadmill, very slowly after my knee replacement. You had such great weather most of this trek and wide open beautifully green views. Thank you for taking us all along with you.
Thank you so much Abbie. I'm enjoying this walk so much. 😊
Your videos are amazing and inspirational,I love watching your walks,I suffer with anixty and know just how much walking helps me.i wish you all the best for the future
It's great to see this sort of long video from you again Abbie and I'm glad that this walk helped you during the pandemic
Just what I needed after a rotten day at the office. Cheers!
And I really like it when you hike with Ann. Such a lovely Lady
Loving your work, Abbie. Very relaxing and informative viewing. Wonderful bit of filming. Thanks.
One of the best walking and hiking video coverages on the UA-cam. Thanks Abbie.
Really enjoyed your video. Beautiful country views. Thanks Abbie!
Lovely to see you back, Abbie. Thoroughly enjoyed this video and am adding it to my bucket list!
That was an absolute pleasure to watch , well done and thank you for sharing your adventures .
Much love from your friends in Wales Ritchie and Raven x
Thank you for posting this. I'm a keen hiker myself and returned to the hobby last summer after 5 years of rehab following a catastrophic health event. My first post-illness hike was the Cotswold Way. I thought it would be an easy step back into the hobby. It wasn't! I did it though. Maybe I should record my next adventure - you're an inspiration.
You are a most pleasant person to 'walk' along with. You've also made me chuckle a few times....Always a good thing. :-) Be blessed Abbie.
I've been to the cotswolds once, and barely scratched the surface of what to see! Thank you for sharing your adventure!
I’m going to play the old guy card and tell you how much I appreciated this video because you remind me so much of one of my daughters. She is in a biology course now and i could see her doing exactly what you have done. Thanks for the inspiration that i was able to pass along.
Brilliant film Abbie, it was an enjoyable watch. This really does look like a fantastic national trial worth doing. Absolutely beautiful scenery and countryside. Excellent viewing 😊😊😊😊
Oh, this film is glorious - thank you so much. It brought back very fond memories of an overnight walk I did with a youth group when I was 16. We walked from Cheltenham to Hailes Abbey and stopped at Belas Knapp for a breather. It belted down with rain all night, we got lost, but had a fantastic time.
Hello ABBIE BARNES! I enjoyed this beautiful journey! Thank you for sharing with us all!
It's always a pleasure to enjoy your videos and poetic descriptions of the villages and historic monuments and archaeological sites, the wild flowers and your meeting up with friendly dogs , ponies and cows. You bring parts of the world alive that would otherwise remain just unfamiliar locations on a map. Thanks Abbie, your the proverbial breath of fresh air.
"Can I have a plaque?"...🤣 Of course you can matey.
Absolute beaut of a film. Had a massive smile on my face by the end of the journey. Well done Abbie 🙌😘 well worth the wait.
Hahaha thanks!!
Just what I needed. Excellent film. Thanks Abbie x
What an inspiration you are - keep going Abbie, you're amazing xx
Abbie you are inspirational and talented. I loved this video. I'm not as mobile as I used to be so thank for taking me along on your adventure.
Really enjoyed your video Abbie, brought back many good memories of when I walked the Cotswold Way backpacking about three years ago. Stayed at a couple of the camp sites you did almost on the same piece of grass.
Thanks
Clive
Wow that was brilliant Abbie, thoroughly enjoyable and thank you for taking us with you 🙏
Yay I have been waiting for this one ages!Salivating with impatience to watch it.Gonna snatch a big pack of sweet popcorn 🍿 and crack on
I adore your videos Abbie. So inspiring. The English country side is breath taking. Keep tracking.
Thankyou Abbie for sharing that hike along the cotswold way. Lovely scenery. I do think you deserved a cake from the little cake shop.
Connecting with nature is spiritually uplifting. I think you are connected with the universe.❤
What a brilliant job DONE!!! Well done ABBIE
Thanks for sharing Abbie, really enjoyed "walking " with you along the Cotswold Way. Greetings from Melbourne, Australia.
What an accomplishment! Well done! I've missed you. Glad you're back.
Super fun video. Headed to Cotswold Way in two days and you have really inspired me. Thank you 😊
That was a nice hike indeed. Thank you for sharing.
So good to see you back. Rib injuries are the worst. I never understood the term blinding pain until I pinched a nerve between my ribs. Hope you heal soon.
Thank you, Abbie, for this video! It is so inspiring and you have such a great presence! I hope I can walk one day on your path:-)!
Excellent. Thank you. The Cotswold Way has been on my bucket list for a long time. I need to figure out how to travel to the UK with my new service dog first, but I’m feeling freshly motivated after seeing this.
By far the best video of this walk I've seen yet.
Brilliant as usual, Abbie. Thank you so much for sharing this. 🙂👍🏕️
What a great video. Fond memories of completing the Bath to Cheltenham 60 mile Action Challenge ultra back in 2017. Well done Abbie.
Wow thank you so much Abbie! What an amazing hike along the Cotswold Way. I watched this over the last 4 evenings just before bedtime and you and your lovely energy, your joy for life and determination to explore and soak up nature have really helped me to stay grounded during a tough few days here in Canada. Deep in snow, and freezing temps, it's been great to see the beautiful British countryside. I hope to do this hike myself one day soon. So inspired by you.
Look forward to many more of your videos. So glad you are back. Take care and stay WILD
you're such an inspiration! Thank you
Thank you from Melbourne, Aus. Your walks have helped keep me sane- in all our 2020-22 lock downs & brought back fond memories of my years in UK. Enjoy many more adventures :)
So awesome to see a new hike up Abbie !😀😊 loved it. To bad we couldn't get inside the folly castle. Maybe next time. Cheers, Dave. 😎
A wonderful video of a wonderful trail. My wife and I visited Bath years ago and it was such a lovely place. The whole area is beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Love the Cotswolds area, so beautiful! Good to see you again Abbie 🌺🍀🥰
Fabulous. I’m from Bath, love the Cotswolds and I’m currently living in Hong Kong. As we enter the fifth Covid wave with all its restrictions, I feel myself missing home and just loved this blog. Perfect. Thank you.
you are such a joy , i just love watching your vids
Thanks as always Abbie. Another trail to put in my growing bucket list.
Brilliant. Thanks Abbie
Beautiful walk! Choice and commitment go hand in mind, thanks for the reminder! Really enjoy your work. (Passion)
What a fantastic adventure and music fits perfectly. You simply create a masterpiece.🙌🏻🙌🏻😇😇
Thank you Abbie great video. Nice to see you met with Ann she is a great walker. On this walk you travelled through places known to me like Prestbury, Stroud and Bath. Today is a great day as I have been invited back to walk in the Netherlands. Fingers crossed to the opening up of life. Stay free and wild.
So nice to see you hike with a friend!
Great video Abbie. Thanks!
Brilliant walk , well done Abbie - suffering from plantar fasciitis at the moment but hoping to be out and about soon again, like you I feel trapped being unable to be out walking it was my heaven and release
Your videos are very naturals and your ever smiling face shows that you enjoy what you do. Congratulations
I just completed the Cotswold Way with you, it was inspiring and fun. Thank you and ' cheerio'.
I loved this video. Definitely a trail to add to the list but what a beautiful trail and beautifully shot. Well done Abbie x
Thanks for bringing me along all the way from the mountains of British Columbia
Thank you so much for sharing this . The World is a better place with you init brightening everyone day fantastic.
I recoginised Chippen Campden straight away. I stayed there for a few weeks, when I was still working in archaeology. I also visited Broadway tower. Another great video, which brings back some memories.
Hi Abbie... To walk the hills and wild-camp is just a dream for me now. Gone is my past but my future is not going to be as it should. I have to live with what happened to me but i shall never forget your out-look on life. Thanks for all the memories.. Regards Mick...
Great to see you, Broadway was a village I went to weekly there is a great café there that does a great hot chocolate with marshmallows and cream. There is a great view from top of Broadway Tower you climb it some day. Take care and stay safe and well xx
long barrows are my thing!! cheers for your uploads mate, brilliant
Great video, thanks for taking us along.
That walk would have taken me for ever. As soon as I see something historic I have to go visit it haha. Quality video. Loved it
I visited Bath in 1998. It was my first time out of the United States, other than Canada. It began my true lust for travel. Thanks for this lovely walk and for being YOU.
Well done Abbie, thanks for the walk!
Loved the video of your 102 mile walk on the Cotswold Way. Well done! I will be doing the Cotswold Challenge in a few months time.
Finished Day 2 and now must crash for the night. More tomorrow. What an amazing video this is -- a classic Wild video. You are in such great spirits, Abbie, and the scenery is a really nice combination of vistas and villages. I have been through the Cotswolds before on a coach, but it must be so much nicer to take the area in by foot, seeing all of the plants (those ancient trees!) and animals at walking speed. Thanks for sharing this, it's a delight.
Thanks Abbie, absolutely lovely video. Felt a bit claustrophobic in the little hole…. 😂 xx
Really enjoyed journeying with you. We have lived in a couple of the areas along the Cotswold Way and it was so nice to revisit on your hike. Love your commentary and agree with you on preferring the quiet of nature than the built up areas, although we love Bath with all its splendour. We love regularly walking some stretches of the Cotswold way and agree, the views are amazing. Liked and subscribed. Thank you for a really interesting vlog! 😃👍
Feeling inspired to plan a long walk after watching this!
I so enjoyed that! Thanks Abbie
Another wonderful video😍you are unique Abbie 💙 A job WELL done!
Enjoyed the video in the company of friends, great video, thanks for sharing 👍🏻
Great job ..cheers 👏
