A Walk on Dartmoor - Kes Tor, Shovel Down, Teignhead Farm, Grey Wethers and Fernworthy stone circle

In a departure from our normal films of walking in the Lake District (they will be back soon!), Neil takes a walk on Dartmoor, in Devon, starting from Teigncombe near Chagford and heading over to the ruins of Teignhead Farm, via ancient stone rows and hut circles, ending with the majestic stone circles of Grey Wethers and Fernworthy.
Along the way, there are skylarks, a lizard, bees, sheep, ponies, a wren and the sounds of the many birds of this amazing ancient landscape.

Looks as though you had a wonderful day on Dartmoor. Lots of lovely moments 🐦🐝🦎🐏🐴🌌 and impressive aerial shots 😲, all accompanied by your usual cheeky delivery. 😜 Really enjoyed this little doco. Thanks Neil. ☮️💟

Thanks, Franny. Yes, it was a stunning day - so lucky to get the aerial shots and the clear night sky.

I love watching your videos mate I’m gonna go lake districts 25-26-27 this month I hope the weather will be on our side

[@LakeDistrictFilms]

Thanks, Aiden. Hope you get good weather (or, failing that, have good outdoor clothes!). Stay safe.

[@sivasliyizlagardaaasssserd6378]

Thank you mate Fingers crossed 🤞

Great video, i hope you had time to fit in a cream tea on your trip south as well. Are there any more southern walk videos to follow?

[@LakeDistrictFilms]

Not this time, sadly - a terrible oversight! Hoping to be back later in the year, so will see what we can do...

Absolutely spectacular! I loved the skylark song, lizard, aerial shots of ancient roads, bee, stream views, wren, stone circles, the abandoned farm, and clouds. Thank you so much! I would like to paint from these videos. I can pause them. Is it possible to loop a segment to have the landscape seem more alive? Just a suggestion from Newlyn Art School in Cornwall regarding painting from looped videos. With gratitude, Claire

[@LakeDistrictFilms]

Hi Claire. Thanks so much for the positive feedback - so glad you’re enjoying the films. Not sure about being able to loop a segment, but we’ll see if we can upload a few more long shots, which can be looped. We have some in our “Virtual Lakes” playlist, which might be good for you: #VirtualLakes kzbin.info/aero/PLbYk0nFV1G7KORykEsQhmYh25SFYCnODv Do let us know if you do a painting - we’d love to see it! Thanks again and all the best.

@@LakeDistrictFilms The Virtual Lakes playlist is just what I am looking for. The ambient sounds are especially important. If they can be looped, please let me know. Wonderful! If the painting comes to anything of interest, I will let you know. There is energy that comes from the landscape. It is important to paint after walking outside to try to recapture actually being in England.

@@clairegreenlea3945 Fairly certain that there used to be a setting you could choose on the video itself, to make it loop, but doesn't seem to be any more (if there ever was!). There is this, though, which claims to loop KZbin videos, and might be what you're after: looptube.io/ All the best.
