I've only just discovered your channel today, but I've been bingeing for the past hour and I absolutely love it. Keep up the good work :)

Great video! You're inspiring me to forget about the temperature and to just get out there! Thank you for sharing.

Good vid, thanks for sharing,beautiful scenery ! looked like a good crisp ! wild camp to get the new year going ! 👍🙂

These are ace! Loving the hiking/outdoors series you are providing.

Lovely film with a genuine & traditional feel to it. I.e not over produced. I enjoyed your day out on Kinder and will lookout for more of your videos.

I really enjoy your films Athena, such a sense of freedom! This one brought back many happy memories of rock climbing on Kinder south edges in my youth. Thank you!

Thanks for the walk. Brings back old memories. We used to live inside the park near Whaley Bridge. Beautiful but it did rain a lot.

Thank you for producing such a delightful film.

What a neat place to camp! Awesome morning views.. nice job 👍

It's great to see you having such fun! Another charming video, I like your relaxed style.

I love your videos! I keep looking at my hiking gear but hesitate, you certainly are motivating me. Thankyou

Great to see another video from you and also to hear of your thoughts along the way. Well done for getting out there so early on in the year - and for braving the temperature (or lack of). All the best.

Just subscribed from Canada. You sold me after seeing you wearing the Patagonia jacket and Lowe Alpine pack! That's my style! Lol Keep up the good work. :)

Great vid Athena 👍. Loved the views from your tent when you first opened up the door in the morning 👌. Good shout with the leave no trace. I didn't realise just how big the icicles where till your hand came into shot 😲. Thanks for sharing. Atb Sconja 👍

Love this channel only just discovered it!! Binging now!

Great video, I did that same wild camp back in October but we walked the other way round, can't wait to get back up there again:) cheers

These vlogs are great examples of how easy it is to have an adventure if you pack the right kit and keep placing one foot in front of the other. Great stuff!

Another brilliant video Athena! And it brought back memories for me as my BF and I hiked the same route up to Kinder Scout last spring and then down via the Grindsbrook Clough back to Edale. I remember all the beautiful heather and especially those two rocks where you camped - from a certain angle they look like kissing birds :) You are a true inspiration and I also loved your "leave no trace" shoutout. It's so so important! Thanks for sharing.

Hello Athena. Loved the footage you put together, along with the calming music. All the very best on your future wild camping adventures. Gary

Enjoyed this video. Good work Athena

Lovely vlog. We're now on the Peak Forest Canal and we're going to do our first wild camp on Kinder Scout this week. Thanks for showing us the way x

Great vid Athena! I often head over to the Lakes and hammock camp in the forests there but I have a new tent to test out so Kinder Scout might be a good shout.

What a great video, i have walked and mountain bike this area all my life. So nice to see this and great job on leaving no mess behind and promoting that. As they say take only photos and leave only footprints

great vid good to point out leave no trace look forward to youre future vids

Really enjoyed that, well done Athena...subscribed 👍

Excellent video, Athena. Jacob's Ladder is a bugger in anything other than perfect dry conditions, so well done, girl. Count me in, and I hope your channel goes stellar. Stay safe.

I enjoyed that, great video. Glad you managed to keep warm!

Stumbled across your channel and must say how enjoyable it is to watch as well as seeing the pleasure you gain from your Solo Wild Camping experiences. Great camera work and some beautiful pictures all blended with a perfect background music choice. You are very talented... look forward to seeing more.

Great video and such amazing scenery 👌

So refreshing to see a real map in use. (In contrast with slavish attachment to electronics) That alone made my day, but it was just icing on the cake. Keep it up.👍

well said on leaving no trace you have a great attitude and mindset. carry it in carry it out looking forward to my next trip in May now after watching this video.

Great video! Looked like a fantastic place to camp 👌

Beautiful view to wake up to in the morning .Thanks for sharing your adventure

You hit the nail on the head when you mentioned that Kinder is so accessible. I live less than 3 miles from Hayfield, and after watching the video, I am now inspired to get back out wild camping.....well done !!!

Loving you’re channel. Brilliant videos. I’ll be taking the big step soon enough. I’m v nervous but also v excited. Few more bits to get first and I’m a go go go. Lol. Peace to All. ❤️🙏

Absolutely loved this video and the soundtrack (following on Spotify now). New subscriber and wild camper.

Enjoyed this very much, keep it up, all the best 😊

What a great little video 👍

Great video! Thank you for sharing your adventure. I look forward to seeing more of your videos.

Great video Athena! Moved to the area recently and have started to get out in the hills. Nothing better!

Brilliant video, thanks! I live in Sheffield and would love to give this a go once invested in some proper gear ❄️

Really can’t wait to get out on our first wild camp too!!!

A nice relaxed view and glad you enjoyed your Kinder trip , keep up the good work ATB Dave

Love the naturalness and sense of freedom your videos have. I like the little touches of showing us you have no problems stirring your soup with a twig, and, after you get your shot, you don't edit out the part where you turn back to retrieve your camera! Good stuff.

Great video! I too struggle with cold hands and the worst part is always putting the tent away in the morning, especially if it's cold AND wet! I need to get another wild camp penciled into my calendar soon!

Looks cold, but stunning and peaceful!

Great camp out , up there yesterday in the snow Amazing scene # Aqua stone throne 🤘

Beautiful name, beautiful countryside, beautifully filmed, awesome determination! You froze your butt but it was all worth it, wasn't it? Great work. Thank you Athena.

Another great video. Keep them coming. Taking a frozen tent down is a pretty painful experience on the hands

What an awesome video 😊 Looked a great little winter one nighter! 👌

Brilliant vid. Thanks for sharing 👍👍👍

What an inspiration you are, wonderful scenery great video💪👍

I'm loving your channel! Makes me want to go out hiking and camping :-)

Lovely to watch as I sit on heaving commuter train. Stay free and enjoy.

Cool vid! And here I am cowardly waiting for spring to start my camping trips again. :p It must be really nice for you to live near these great hiking areas!

Great video.Enjoyed it a lot !!!

All the best Athena getting out and about.....the lakes is where it's at...….Vids getting good...

Really really awesome video! You have made me miss good ol’ kinder scout! Such a great peak for adventures! 😊 Could you do a video on your hiking kit or maybe put it into the description? Your jacket looks incredibly warm and lightweight, I’ve tried to find a decent one and despite almost breaking the bank, I am still awaiting to find a decent one! 🙁 Awesome video again. ITS SO NATURAL!!!!

beautiful video little squirrel xx

Hi Athena. Nice video! Was this 2 weekends ago as I was up there last weekend and it was blanketed in snow!

Inspiring. Ty athena. new subscriber. Look forward to more. 😃

KZfaq RNG put you onto my home page and im so glad it did maybe 11 months late lol! but anyways camping on kinder scout in mid winter January like wow I'm so impressed your a tough girl for sure, iv walked kinder scout/ woolpacks many times its beautiful and awesome place to walk but in January? anyway iv now watched a few more of your videos and 'subscribed' your doing on youtube my fav thing in life hiking and camping … your videos are very good and you have a friendly clear voice and any information is easy to understand ((now for all the other videos there's a lot!

Great Video Keep Them Coming

Thanks for the video, hopefully it will inspire my youngest daughter to embrace the outdoors. Keep up the good work.

Hello from Alberta, new sub. This is some great vistas. Maybe a little blustery out, but cozy in the tent. Nice. :)

Just found your channel 👍🏻 Great video , full respect to you , well done :) I live in Disley and have the wonderful view of kinder and the downfall from my front room window and bedroom . Mountain bike all around there often but I'm not brave enough to camp in January -3 😄 Brilliant x Subbed

Another great video, thanks for sharing 👍

Great effort and well filmed. I have two daughters aged 10 and 11 and have taken them on a few wild camps over the years, not that I’ve ever filmed, only taken photos. This video will inspire them even more. I’ve added you on Instagram. Keep up the good work.

Always a please to watch your trips. Your choice of music is marvellous. Your mixtapes would be interesting

I did the same thing last year. We had a foot of snow up there and it was fantastic. Got down to about -6 degrees. Nice video.

Nice one. I’d love to do that route some day but down in Surrey. So it’s the South Downs and North downs for me. Cheers for sharing

Well done Athena - especially liked your plea regards not leaving rubbish behind - we need to escape from this plastic hell we are creating

Snap! I have the same tent. Nice short video of your walk. Good music as well. Pity the sun wasn't out for you.

Firepot food is delicious, dall and rice being one of my favourites. Excellent choice! Great location too, the Peak District is on my doorstep.

great vid Athena, really enjoyed it. atb

fantastic scenery. you are brave to do this.

Thank you for sharing, an enjoyable video, subd 👍. I’ve yet to visit there, I think it will be one to add to our list of wild camps for this year for me and my son.

very brave of you to do it alone imo! nice video thanks

brilliant vid and great to see a woman doing this kind of stuff, also brought back some pleasant memories for me, must be at least 30yrs since I was up there well past time I revisited the peaks

Nice little video Athena. Well done. Might give that area a go sometime. I’m going to do a few wild camps myself this year and get a few vids on KZfaq.

You're going to be a superstar Athena without any effort at all on youtube. There's nothing I can add. This place is going to get swamped and the dialogue between you and I simply won't exist. All the very best to you. Mark

Well done, the nights must have seen long that time of the year. Spent 3days up their last week wild camping mermaids pool and the small woods on Kinder River. First time but will be back. Its a very special place!

Nice wild camp would love to get back up there one day but its 5hrs in a car. And I've got Dartmoor only 30mins away. Take care Cheers Karl

nice video, I spend a night up there, on fairbrook naze on the north side of the plateau last week, stunning views.

This video reminded me of a very foggy winter walk years ago with a friend. I think we must have been on Kinder and wanted to find the top of Jacobs Ladder. We navigated really carefully across the moor and amazingly found the path with no deviation whatsoever. I have just texted my friend to ask him whether he remembers it. I put all the contents of my hall outside the front door this morning so I could wash the floor. Popped my head out the door to see whether it is raining and several pairs of boots were flung about all over the place. Next door's cat was rolling about wrestling with a boot!

Really enjoyed that nice one

So cute ☺️... and I liked the piano music 🎶

Love a good camp on Kinder. If you go back up, you should try near the waterfall (Kinder Downflow). It's beautiful on a clear, windless night. I'd recommend the walk down Crowden Clough on the way back too, just like Grindsbrook but a little more challenging in my opinion :)

I agree, Kinders great if you’re travelling from a Manchester. Nice vid, subbed.

Great vid Athena, you are brave to hike alone.Sub,hope to see more vid from you. Best regards from Sweden👍😊

Wow , just amazing. Good on u 👊🏽💓

Hi, as lockdown started, I ended up searching for hiking videos on YT which led me to your channel. It also moved me to want to try wild camping. So I have a request, please can you do a video on how to pick a wild camping spot? Not so much the level ground, not across a footpath or in a dry riverbed bit, more what locations around the UK tolerate it and if there are places to avoid? I live just off the south of the Peak District so I am considering starting in the White Peak or Staffordshire Roaches. Thanks in hope 👍😁

Awesome video! Would love to do that Kinder loop some day.

Athena, great videos! I wish I could find a girl that enjoys the outdoors like you do (hint hint !! ) haha Keep it up :-)

AHHHH I'm actually obsessing over your videos!! They're soooo relaxing!! What song is this? going to listen to it all evening! x

Hi Athena just come across your'e channel & subbed of course..beautiful place is Kinder i get up there pretty regular camping & walking aswell as a lot of the peak district.The woolpacks is one of my fav places up there to camp too,so many little places inbetween the rocks to get out of sight.lovely video & well filmed..tfs & atb..Andy.

Seen you washing the mug in the beck reminded me of a time I lived in the lakes Athena ,I washed my tin mug like that while fishing.Walked upstream about twenty yards and a dead calf rotten was in the stream! Yuk! ATV to you

Brilliant and super cool 👍✌️

Great sound track! I find it endearing that you have this terrific kit for a walk-about and wild camp and you're stirring your soup with a twig! That minced meat pie looks delish. Nice reward.

Lovely film, lovely attitude and a beltin’ pie!
