      Via de pass naar de zee bij Seascale

      15. juni 2023, England ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C

      Om de beentjes (met name van Hans) wat te sparen, hebben we vandaag een prachtige tocht met de auto gemaakt richting Seascale. Om hier te komen moesten we via de Hardknottpass, dwars door de bergen met percentages van 33% (volgens de mensen die we tegenkwamen de ergste pass in Engeland) en dat vroeg wel het uiterste van die trouwe Ford. Zoals je op de foto’s kunt zien was het wel zeker de moeite waard. Straks maar weer een slaapplaats zoeken en morgen weer richting Newcastle om de boot op te gaan…Les mer

      Lake District NP

      6. september 2023, England ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C

      Although this national park is mostly famous for - you guessed it - its 16 lakes, we couldn't ignore Scafell Pike, the highest peak of England. We did a bigger loop to avoid the most popular route, and pitched our tent at Angle Tarn on the way up. With all these beautiful lakes around here and the amazing weather, it was time to bring out our paddle board! We paddled the whole length of Ullswater (much more peaceful than a lake cruise) and hitchhiked back to Otto.Les mer

      Grasmere

      19. mai 2023, England ⋅ ⛅ 12 °C

      This morning we drove through the stunning scenery of the Yorkshire Dales and the Pennines and then through Cumbria and the amazing Lakes District with miles and miles of dry stone walls dividing the fields of farms with their stone farm houses.

      Our first stop was Grasmere, home of William Wordsworth (who is buried there), Beatrix Potter, Peter Rabbit and Herdwick sheep. Grasmere was a special place and it and its surrounding scenery was visually stunning.

      It was then into Scotland as we made our way to Edinburgh. The drive there was amazing also - lush green farmlands, rolling green hills and sheep everywhere. It is a greener green than you could ever imagine. No wonder the sheep, which are everywhere, look so healthy.

      These photos are all of Grasmere.      Les mer

      Grasmere to Patterdale

      8. mai, England ⋅ ☁️ 11 °C

      Another day without rain but there was heavy fog. Again being the lake district this was a hike out of the valley of Grasmere to a ridge about 500 metres with options of returning to the next river valley or hiking higher and doing another ridge hike. I was away by 8:30 again. I woke up at 5:30 having gone to bed at 10 pm. Initially I didn't see the brothers but after an hour I could see them in the distance. As I climbed higher out of the valley it became gradually more foggy and the surrounding ridges were engulfed and covered in fog. I passed Katie a hiker camper. She was doing the C2C in 11 days and looked very fit. I passed some rangers doing trail maintenance and they didn't think the fog would clear. By the time I reached Grisdale tarn(small lake), I couldn't see anything beyond a few metres. I met the three brothers sitting by the lake(tarn) debating what to do. They had also reached the conclusion that it would be unsafe to attempt a ridge hike. We all continued down into the Patterdale valley and we realized that the fog on the last part of the ridge above us had cleared. At the rate we were walking we realized that we would be at Patterdale by 1 pm which was too early to end the day. As such we decided to hike a trail from the river valley up to the last part of the ridge. Another 400 metre elevation but it was well worth it to look down onto Ullswater Lake. From the height it was a downhill walk into Patterdale and to the Ullswater Inn where we all got a very poor reception at the reservation desk. The hotel seems very nice other than the officious receptionist. I met Sarah and David from the train ride and they seemed to be enjoying themselves. I am just chilling before I go down for supperLes mer

      22. september 2023, England ⋅ ☁️ 11 °C

      Abwechslungsreicher geht's fast nicht.
      Das ist wohl der Grund, weshalb im Lake District National Park so viele Menschen Erholung suchen.

      Von mystischen Steinkreisen, jeder Menge Seen und Bergen mit gut begehbaren Wegen ist alles dabei.
      In den etwas größeren Städtchen z.B. Keswick kann man gut flanieren und die Auslagen begutachten .

      Uns zieht es nur manchmal in die City.

      Heute waren wir beim zweitgrößten Steinkreis in UK.
      Anders als in Stonehenge kannst du noch direkt an den Castlerigg Stone Circle herantreten.
      Der Besuch ist hier auch "noch" kostenfrei.
      Schon beeindruckend wo Obelix überall seine Hinkelsteine abgelegt hat 😉

      Es ging weiter mittendurch den Lake District. Neben schön engen Straßen die durch Steinmauern gerahmt sind, konnten wir uns schöne Seen und Berge ansehen.

      Am Kirkstone Pass richten wir heute unser Nachtlager ein.
      Parken, Handbremse anziehen fertig 👍

      Bis es dunkel wird ist noch ein bisschen Zeit.
      Also los geht's auf Schuster Rappen zu einer kleinen Wanderung auf einen der umliegenden Berge.

      Es ist einfach so: zu Fuß entdeckt man ein Land intensiver.

      Am Berg hatte ich noch einen kurzen kurzen Schnak mit zwei Freerunnern. Ich habe den beiden noch einen schönen Lauf gewunschen und sie zur Vorsicht ermahnt.
      Nasse Felsen neigen dazu rutschig zu sein. Zack ist es schon passiert. Die junge Frau ist gestolpert und an einem steil abfallenden felsigem Stück gestürzt. Zum Glück waren alle Schutzengel am Berg aufmerksam und haben Schlimmes verhindert.
      🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
      Das war sehr sehr knapp an einer Katastrophe vorbei.

      Da wird dir bewusst, wie schnell sich das Leben ändern kann.

      Wir machen uns hier noch einen chilligen Abend und genießen unsere Zeit.

      Was für eine schöne Reise 🤗

      Vor allem aber ist, Gott sei es gedankt, der jungen Sportlerin nichts passiert 🙏      Les mer

      Kirby Stephen to Keld

      12. mai, England ⋅ 🌩️ 14 °C

      Hurray. I have made it to Keld which is officially considered the half way point of the coast to coast trail. I have also crossed over the Pennines which are a hilly part of England separating the watersheds of western England from eastern England. The first part of the day was a gradual hike up to the top of the Pennines gaining 400 metres. At the top of the Pennines there are 9 large cairns made from stones that can be seen from the valleys below. They have been there for so long that no one remembers what their purpose was. Possibly to mark a boundary of different kingdoms. After a break at the top and a snack, I headed off towards one of the most potentially challenging parts of the trip which I had been worried about. The peat bogs of the Pennines. We don't have peat bogs in Edmonton but these are marshy/muddy areas which are difficult to walk through because one can literally get stuck in the mud. People can sink into the bogs up to their knees resulting in having a very messy day. Fortunately because we have had so little rain for the last week the bogs were the driest they have been for months. I was able to navigate without too much trouble. Once I stuck my hiking poles to check a rather boggy part and it sunk down a couple feet. I also managed to sink in once to my ankle when vaulting over one of the muddy areas. It was fun as the bogs weren't too boggy. I walked through the bogs and onto Keld with Nick a teacher from Brighton Beach. He is half camping and hoteling and carrying a full pack. He was camping tonight and as I type this blog there is an incredible thunder store going on outside so I hope he is staying dry. I pity the poor hikers coming across the Pennines tomorrow. I made it into Keld and had a snack with Nick and three women day hikers from Richmond who we had met towards the end of the day. Then off to the Keld hotel where I have been assigned a very warm room above the drying room. The owner says the drying room heat goes off at 9 so I should be all right.Les mer

      Km 20/14

      Morgens packe ich meine Sachen zusammen.
      Innerhalb einer Stunde ist alles sortiert.

      Frühstück gibt es auf dem Weg ich esse ja gefühlt eh den ganzen Tag.

      Obwohl alles mögliche ein bisschen weh tut und das Knie verdächtig jammert beginne ich den Ausflug ein bisschen zu genießen.
      Zum Glück ist das Wetter noch gut.
      Manche Stellen wären bei Regen ziemlich interessant geworden.

      Zum Essen gibt es wieder eine Menge Sandwich von too good to go.
      Wer wandert darf auch die ungesunden Kohlenhydrate mit Mayo essen :p

      Die Landschaft ist schön und noch bin ich für Schaf, Kuh und Esel zu begeistern.

      Die meisten Höhenmeter sind zwar anstregend aber noch machbar.

      Wildcampen im Nationalpark trau ich mich dann doch nicht.

      Campen in der Jugendherberge ist leider verboten, deshalb gibt es dort noch ein Bett für mich.
      Schade das ich hier ein bisschen zu spät zum Essen bin. Der Besitzer hier kocht selber, es sah göttlich aus.

      Hier werde ich von allen egal ob nicht Deutsch oder Deutsch sofort enttarnt, wie so oft im Urlaub...

      Drei Englische Sätze und jeder saht sofort " Ah du bist Deutsche :D "

      Leider ist in der geselligen Sofaecke in der Jugendherberge kein Platz mehr für mich. Ich beschränke mich auf sehr nette Küchengespräche.

      Einen kleinen Sonnenbrand gab es trotz eincremen trotzdem.      Les mer

      Ennerdale Bridge to Rosthwaite

      6. mai, England ⋅ ☁️ 11 °C

      24 miles is a long way to hike especially if one throws in a 450 metre elevation gain towards the end. I had another late start. Mr TPRM thinks I need to get going a little earlier. I got up late 8 and by the time I was packed up and Peter had driven me back to Ennerdale bridge it was almost 10. The hike by Ennerdale Lake was very rocky and very up and down. After the lake it was through the Ennerdale valley on a logging road. That's correct they were logging parts of the valley. Made me feel like home. Didn't meet many other hikers at all as they had all left before me. Very quiet. Got off the trail once as there are many trails and the C2C trail is not well marked. Only lost about 10 minutes. Thank goodness for the Garmin. Invaluable. At the Black sail hostel met two elderly couples having a break. I don't know how they are coping. After the hostel the path had to leave the valley so it went straight up the valley side 400 metres. No switchbacks. It was tiring. Caught up with some other hikers. Went into the next valley which had been mined for slate. By then it was getting on to 4 ish and I still had a few miles to go. It started raining but this is the most wet part of the UK with 5 metres of rain per year. The trail seemed to go on and on. Finally made it to Rosthwaite. Asked an elderly gentleman where the Royal Oak hotel was and he told me that he had lived there for 2 years and had never heard of the Royal Oak. Felt he had to be wrong. Walked 1/2 block turned right and there it was. Incredible. What you don't need to hear at the end of a long day. Met the three brothers at the Royal Oak and joined them for a very swank supper. Met a fellow in the lobby today who was camping and hiking and had managed to turn his ankle today after becoming lost. He was calling it quits after 2 days. Yikes. I will have to be carefulLes mer

      Km 17/14

      Mit Thermounterwäsche ist es immer noch kalt aber nicht so kalt wie nackt im Schlafsack.
      Da habe ich wohl auf die falschen Outdoortipps gehört.
      Ich laufe heute sehr langsam aber stetig.
      Außerdem Verlaufe ich mich auch um ein paar Höhenmeter und nehme einen Hügel mehr mit als die Originalroute vorsieht.
      Heute fließen keine Tränchen da mir morgens schon klar ist das ich es weder zum Hostelbett noch zum warmen Essen schaffe.

      Meine Wanderapp kennt einen Campingplatz den Google nicht kennt, wildcampen bringe ich nicht übers Herz es ist schließlich verboten.

      1km vorm Campingplatz steht eine Kühlbox im Wald. Eine Caprisonne rettet meine Laune und noch ein Haferiegel das Frühstück morgen früh.

      Neben mir ist nur ein Mann mit Zelt.
      Er hat sich evt den Finger geborchen.
      Er hat selber Ibu und hat seine Finger schon mit Leukosilk zusammen geklebt. Mehr fällt mir da dann auch nicht zu ein. Ich biete ihm zumindest an morgen früh beim Sachen packen zu helfen.

      Pünktlich zum Regenbeginn steht mein Zelt.      Les mer

      Patterdale to Bampton

      9. mai, England ⋅ ☁️ 13 °C

      I met up with David and Sarah last night. They very kindly asked me to accompany them to the very swank Inn on the Lake which was beside Ullswater Inn for supper. It was fun exchanging stories of our adventures.

      Today was a wonderful day weather wise as there was no rain or fog and there were some sunny bits. Today was going to be the last day in the Lake district so of course it entailed hiking out of one valley across a high ridge called Kidsty Pike and back down into the next valley. Kidsty Pike will be the highest elevation that we reach on this trip at 780 metres. All told I was in for 21.5 km of hiking and a total of 1100 metres of elevation gain.

      I got up early and had breakfast and was on my way by 8:15 am. Fortuitously I met the three Acock brothers also leaving the Inn so I joined up with them. Tim had previously hiked this route on a trip to the Lake District so he knew where we were going. Obviously a good person to follow. It was quite a steep hike out of Patterdale to the Angle tarn before leveling out 2 km before the final push to the top. Dawn the solo Scottish hiker caught up to us on our walk up to the pike. We had last seen her 2 days before on Calf Crag so we were happy to see her again. From the top of the pike, the view was spectacular and I think we all shared a feeling of accomplishment. After a snack and some photos we headed down the steepest part of the C2C trail to Haweswater reservoir. We followed along the shore for a couple of hours undulating up and down on the path which added to the elevation gain for the day. At the end of the reservoir I had to say goodbye to my hiking companions as I was heading off to Bampton 1.5 k off the trail and the Acock brothers and Dawn were heading another 5 km to Shap. They will in the next 2 days hike what I will hike in the next three days. The Acock brothers will end their trip in Kirby Stephan while Dawn will continue on and finish the hike in another 7 days while I will take 9 days. I have really appreciated hiking with the Acock brothers. They were great companions for the first 5 days of the hike. Having someone to hike at the same pace as I hike made the time go by much more quickly and enjoyably. Hopefully I will connect with some other hikers over the next 9 days of the trip.

      I hiked off the trail 1.5 km to Bampton and easily found the Mardale Inn where I will staying tonight. I am in the Annex down from the Inn so I am hoping for a quiet night as after 21.5 k and 1100 metres of elevation gain, I am quite tired.

      I think that I have been very lucky for the last five days with the weather. I have only had rain towards the end of Day 2 when hiking into Rosthwaite but otherwise have had no rain. I think hiking up ridges, crags and pikes in the Lake District if it were raining would have made the last 5 days much more challenging and hardly as much fun.      Les mer
