A Walk in the Woods - In Bryson's footsteps on the Appalachian Trail

Over in the east of the USA, stretching between the states of Georgia in the south and Maine in the north, and spanning for 2100 miles, is a long-distance footpath called the Appalachian Trail. Every year around 3000 people attempt to thru-hike the entire distance, taking 4-6 months or longer. In 1998 Bill Bryson attempted to do the same in his book 'A Walk in the Woods'.
Travel writer, author and adventurer Phoebe Smith followed in his footsteps to explore the 14 states through which it passes, and to meet the hikers, the rangers, and the people that make such an undertaking the trip of a lifetime.

Winnie Wallace... This was a very informative film. Enjoyed the watch.The people taking part are really interesting and made it personal with their stories.

I was Nick Nolte's Photo Double in the Movie called A Walk In The Woods". I did all of his hiking scenes and we went to numerous states to make the film and it is awesome. (Except to having to stand on the edge for drone to film us).

Thanks for your kind comments. Was one of my favourite trips ever, such wonderful people look after the AT.

Bill Bryson has made a living traveling and then writing about it. In The Lost Continent, he re-created the road trips of his childhood A Walk in the Woods Book By Bill Bryson (PDF-Summary-Review-Online Reading-Download): www.toevolution.com/file/view/597173/a-walk-in-the-woods-book-by-bill-bryson-pdf-summary-review-online-reading-download

Great short film! Really gets in a lot of the flavor of the 2,000 mile trail. And features some of our local characters.

Good film thanks.

[@hannahs2058]

Awesome video!

Great film. I read your comments in Feb 2017's Wanderlust about filming with an iPhone (I am new to iPhones...) and decided to take a look at what can be achieved. This is AMAZING, I would never, ever have imagined something so professional looking could've been made with a mobile phone!! I am truly inspired and can't wait to get going ;-)

[@WanderWomanTV]

Thanks Suzel! Glad you liked the mag article and the video! You should get filmmaking asap - it is so much fun - I'm addicted to it! Happy shooting and editing :0)

[@carlreiners7366]

Nice job!

[@OllyParryJones]

Really well done! Is it the Appalachian Trail that also continues along part of the Pembrokeshire coastline?

[@WanderWomanTV]

+Olly Parry-Jones Hi Olly, it's actually paired with the West Highland Way in Scotland. But any excuse to walk the Pembrokeshire coastline is alright by me!

[@OllyParryJones]

ExtremeSleeps Ah. I've just Googled this and Wikipedia says that we're both right, with further proposals to extend the trail across Europe. By the way, I really enjoyed reading Extreme Sleeps last year (which is currently being borrowed by a friend, who also loves it) and am coming to the end of Wild Nights, with your second attempt at The Ben. Your books have encouraged me to think about camping away from the comfort and convenience of most camp sites. :-)
