Your videos are always so uplifting. You are exactly where you need to be in life. Not joining the rat race but being in the mountains with fresh air in your lungs. Thank you for sharing this on your platform and inspiring us. I will be hitting the Lakes more this year myself.

This summer we are going South to North but this has inspired me to walk West to East in 2025. Love it. Thank you.

Beautiful video again with so much enthusiasm and great filming. You got me close to tears hearing about your Mum but I am sure she is keeping an eye on you and must be so proud of you. Thank you for the enjoyment you give to your viewers.

I always found that the right hand path up Tongue Gill was more pleasant than the direct route up the Tongue. Nice waterfall close ups near the top.

Well done you Alex. My husband and I just love The Lakes have been holidaying there every year for about 16 years. It is the most beautiful place in the world. In fact we nearly relocated and moved there just a few weeks ago when we sold our house but we would miss all our grandchildren too much who all live down south with us close by. Maybe someday we will get to live there and enjoy the mountain walking every day. Your mum would of been very proud of you I am sure as I would if you were my son. Take care.

As soon as I saw the notification I clicked, been waiting for Part 2, I defo find that I need way more food energy doing big walks than when I'm doing my usual walks.

Absolutely stunning hike Alex, great videography and fantastic commentary. Thanks for sharing.

You are very lucky you got the weather. 99 % it’s cloudy at the very least !

Brilliant video Alex. So enthusiastic with your hobby. Looking forward to seeing more new videos soon. :)

Absolutely wonderful. Take a bow, Alex. Love The Lakes so very much. Thank you for sharing your trip with us.

Hi Alex, new subscriber here. Just watched your Lake District traverse, it was fantastic. Really enjoying your videos. Thanks for sharing 😊

Another great video, doing a similar day to this on coast to coast (minus Helvellyn) in a few weeks, can't wait!

Hi Alex " mountain goat", another great video, keep on trekking, looking forward to your next adventure. Remember, when you're in the mountains your wealth is not in your pocket. !! Told you we would see you before you saw us.😊

Wow , what a stunning walk , thanks for inspiring an oldish man to get out into the wilderness. We want more adventures. 👍

Love these videos! Could you do a video taking us through how you plan your route & how you follow it - without getting lost! This is the one thing that massively stops me going out to places like this solo and would love some guidance!

Great videos Alex, and some strong mileage! We never think about YHA for camping. I will do now! 👍🏼🙂

Fantastic watch . Thank you so much for sharing 🙏🙏🙏

Such a young lad with passion and enthusiasm, good luck ,keep it up the way you're going, you will make it big on KZfaq

I've been so looking forward to the next instalment!

Loved it! What an adventure. I'm looking forward already to your next film.

Brilliant matey! As ever, wonderful scenery in the Lakes. So glad you don't spend time telling us what kit you've got! Keep doing what you're doing Alex! All good wishes, Simon in Somerset.

Amazing adventure you had there Alex! The sun was shining the whole time throughout your hike as your mum was following your footsteps. Keep up the great work and look forwards to your next adventure!

This was documented brilliantly bud, opening shots and music are just stunning!👏👏

Hi Alex, I'm a relatively new subscriber to your channel. So many great videos But these two were so good. Thanks for putting them together. Great to watch. Keep doing what you do 👍

Great video Alex thanks for sharing 👍.

Another fabulous video Alex! You are bringing so much pleasure to so many people who are watching this. I am going to the Patterdale area in September - an area I haven’t visited yet, so looking forward to that. I won’t be doing 20 mile days though, that’s for ‘mountain goats’ like you. 😄 (must chase down those white chocolate bars you mentioned).

Outstanding challenge well done and such great views

Brilliant! Beautifully filmed and loved the honest, yet positive commentary ☺️💚

Absolutely superb Alex. The 2 best vlogs I’ve watched on the Lake District. Loved it! Your enthusiasm and passion for the outdoors really shine through. Keep up the great work 👍🏻

Lovely scenery again and well documented about the area… keep the vlogs coming 👍

Thanks for the amazing videos. Had a week off work this week, and your content inspired me to tackle Snowdon, Cader Idris, and Grindsbrook Clough/Kinder Scout. Now can't wait to go to the lakes and explore!🙂

amazing Alex, just superb. 👌🏻 We have missed you, hope you're ok! Really love your content and your happy friendly face beaming through the picture. The poorly stomach could have been due to the heat (a lot of people get it on big runs if it's warm) so maybe something to keep an eye out for if it happens again. Look forward to seeing what you've got up to next

Hey Alex lovely video series - can I ask how you navigated?

Can anyone tell me the route he took from Borrowdale to Grasmere please, in particular the valley at 5.05 and 5.21. Thanks.
