Hen Mountain Mournes | Wildcamping Camping | Helm one Helm Two

[@bernardscott1783]

They are a very versatile tent mate and stunning location 👍

[@GeoffGreenawayOutdoors]

@@bernardscott1783 I’m really enjoying it at the moment, especially at this camp, not great ground to pitch on and fits into many a small space, I can’t fault it at all. Cheers for watching 👍

[@gerrymcveigh]

Geoff, a nice easy one after the over indulgences😊 Hen Mountain is one of the coolest mountains in the whole Mournes with those tors and views. Our Summer, for what it was, is well and truly over I think - though the cooler months bring their own magic👍

[@GeoffGreenawayOutdoors]

@@gerrymcveigh morning Gerry, 😂 yes a nice one after a heavy night indeed. It’s a smashing wee summit, it near has a big peak feel to it, we love those tors. Definitely the autumn/winter months bring their own colours to the table now, and I’m looking forward to the crisp mornings now. Cheers for watching 👍

[@Natalieoutdoorsni]

The sarcasm “what a fantastic clear morning “😂😂 I done my first ever camp last night I didn’t sleep much either and I’ve a lot to learn about kit lol 😂

[@GeoffGreenawayOutdoors]

@@Natalieoutdoorsni Hi Natalie, yes I seen on Instagram you went out, well done for that. I seen an Oex phoxx II, a great tent, I love mine. You will get there, it’s all about getting gear that you feel comfortable using, pick up tips but you’ve made a massive step going out on your own. Hahaha yea unfortunately we have to grin and bear it sometimes in the morning 😂. Thank you for watching 👍

[@robertmccrea1957]

Another top vid G-man. Never done Hen because I always have my Retriever, Charlie with me. Batts Estate prohibit dogs so have to respect that. Looked a great camp tho. Thanks for sharing. Rab

[@GeoffGreenawayOutdoors]

@@robertmccrea1957 cheers Rab 👍. It’s a smashing wee mountain mate. Yea i see that on the gates around parts of the western Mournes. It was a cracker apart from the gusts during the night but other than that always good to get out ⛺️.

[@RamblingOn]

Looks like a near perfect camp if you ignore the lack of sleep 😄 cheers for the shout out, your lantern looked class 🙌🍀

[@GeoffGreenawayOutdoors]

@@RamblingOn A cracking camp Jason, I can ignore the lack of sleep until that evening and the head is dropping then 😂. No bother about the shout out, a great wee setup you have 👍

[@IrelandOutdoors]

Class wee night out there lads, you are so right about Hen, beautifully rugged little mountain! Had a laugh at you talking about Cock, we came down that side on the marathon and that was hard enough on the legs! Thanks for the call-out in the description mate, that will be you lads next year!! Will maybe try and get a date organised nearer the end of October for a walk and camp if you fancy it?

[@GeoffGreenawayOutdoors]

@@IrelandOutdoors Hi Gary. I love it up there, could spend days on it. That’s some pull going up I wouldn’t fancy coming down that side 😂. I would have said it on the video mate but I didn’t see until I was in hilltown having a coffee the next morning. I’ll get Stephen to plan something for us, we have a lot to ask about the layout of the marathon, I think we will get into it next year 👍.

[@YONDERMOUNTAINADVENTURES]

[@GeoffGreenawayOutdoors]

@@YONDERMOUNTAINADVENTURES cheers Simon 👍. That watch is telling me some lies, no way I got near 8hrs Kip that night. Love the cheeses just a pity id no chutney to go with it, maybe next time. No bother about the shout out, keep up the great work mate 👍.

Nice one matey. Hen is brilliant spot . Nice easy one but you get some cracking views from it

[@GeoffGreenawayOutdoors]

@@jamesoutandaboutn.i227 yea definitely mate, we love it up there, has a real big peak feel to it. Can’t wait to get out again.

[@jamesoutandaboutn.i227]

@GeoffGreenawayOutdoors yea definitely mate. I'm dieing to get back out . Every time I get the buzz, family duty's pile up haha

[@adventurousdavee]

looks lovely m8 . Never been up any of those mountain yet . Still haven’t got up a few of the high mournes yet 🤣.

[@GeoffGreenawayOutdoors]

@@adventurousdavee Evening mate, it’s a smashing wee top, 30/40 minutes from the car and you’d be ready to pitch up. Uneven ground but you could find a few spots. You will get the high Mournes done and dusted 👍

[@Thedagda801]

Looking out my window in Dublin I can see the Mournes! At the moment.

[@GeoffGreenawayOutdoors]

@@Thedagda801 mighty, it’s an awesome sight. Funnily we where looking down the coast line this morning and think we could pick out Howth, would that be close to you?

[@Thedagda801]

@@GeoffGreenawayOutdoors the other side of Dublin Bay from me!

[@Hikingjoe383]

Nice one mate as usual

[@GeoffGreenawayOutdoors]

@@Hikingjoe383 cheers Joe, good spot just a bit uneven

[@whanna231]

Beer open, pizza, friday evening with the greenaways as usual 😁

[@whanna231]

And a wee shout out too 😍😍😍

[@GeoffGreenawayOutdoors]

@@whanna231 mighty mate. Wish we where out tonight again.

[@GeoffGreenawayOutdoors]

@@whanna231 had to do it for the food review 😂

[@whanna231]

@@GeoffGreenawayOutdoors wanted out tonight myself but no luck, hopefully tomorrow to the hills but rooftent if not.

[@GeoffGreenawayOutdoors]

@@whanna231 sounds a good plan. Have a good one mate

[@cowalexplorer]

Another great night out lads. Lights look to work well….for now 😂 - got them on my wish list. Need to get back out in my Helm soon. Are you allowed to camp just about anywhere in Ireland, like Scotland? Cheers 👍

[@GeoffGreenawayOutdoors]

@@cowalexplorer hi Fraser, yea hopefully get a good few camps with them 🤞. Ahhh the helm is a cracker, but I do like your bobcat setup. The camping situation over here is, it’s not allowed really in Northern Ireland, mostly farmers land but most don’t mind, in Southern Ireland I think it’s like Scotland a free to roam policy. Cheers for watching mate 👍

[@cowalexplorer]

@@GeoffGreenawayOutdoors get yourself a Bobcat, if you’d fit in it. Seen a few for sale lately, never used for £50. We’re so fortunate here with camping, I never take it for granted. 👍

[@jackdunn3980]

How are you finding the condensation on the helm series?

[@GeoffGreenawayOutdoors]

@@jackdunn3980 hi Jack. Honestly no problem at all, anytime we’ve had them out and it’s been windy enough so it takes care of the condensation. Honestly the helm one is probably my favourite tent at the moment ⛺️ 👍
