JoGLE ep.39: South West Coast Path - Hartland Point to Bude| challenging climbs and incredible views

[@user-man-now80]

When I consider what you have achieved on this hike ; the minutiae of the planning required ; being alone most of the time, but not forgetting Otto, ( he is adorable) ; and dealing with all of the frustrations and difficulties which have arrisen, without complaining or giving up ; quite the opposite in fact you have maintained a cheerful countenance to the very end - I think that you deserve a medal, (which you won't get), and should be extremely proud of yourself. Sheffield South Yorkshire. A very impressed 80 year old pensioner.

Lovelly video Elli🌸Gosh that looked hard,all those steep steps! Little Otto is just hardcore🐾 he really deserves his doggie icecream and cookie🍪 I so enjoy your videos Elli, look forward to the next one. The cornish coastpath is just beautiful🌸

[@ellihikes]

Thank you so much for following and your kind words every time :) Otto really is the best companion! As for the coast path: It's so beautiful that even the very hard bits are not that hard because you're distracted by the stunning views :)

Love how your dog has their own sleep pad. They need a comfortable rest too ❤️🐕

[@ellihikes]

Definitely :) It also helps to insulate from the ground if it's colder :)

Loved watching this, my son and I have walked that section and it's a killer! Those steps are huge and so steep, but you've reminded me just how beautiful it is.

[@ellihikes]

The coast path is so stunning, isn't it? Hard work in places but so so worth it 🥰

[@alienzombie1819]

never get bored saying this, your videos always put a big smile on my face, congrats on reaching 100 days, Otto eating cookies and ice cream is wonderful to watch, as always looking forward to your next adventure. 😊

[@ellihikes]

Thank you so much :) I'm always happy to read your comments! It's really special that you've been following for so long already and are interested in our adventures :)

Great shots of the hilly paths Elli (Diese steilen Bergauffahrten bereiteten mir Knieschmerzen) 😮 You’ve a good eye for showing the best of the English coast and you had some decent weather for a change. Don’t envy your hike in the sun, better in the breeze. Impressed at the patience of Otto when you’re doing a piece to camera 🎥 👍🏻

[@ellihikes]

Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm really happy that you like the videos :) Although the coast path makes it very easy to get great shots as it's so stunning everywhere 😅😍

[@chrishiking8818]

This is one of your best videos Elli and Otto, what such a beautiful area , love all the colours. You can really see how difficult this day was , your legs must all muscle ? Can understand how tired you were too. Loved the way Otto sits down and looks at you while you are talking to the camera so funny . Nice one toppers 👍 take care up and onwards 🌷

[@ellihikes]

Aww, thank you so much! That means so much, I really appreciate your kind words, support and encouragement :)

[@straightouttacornwall]

Love it!

[@maaikeverdult5760]

You are a hero this day😊and Otto as well

[@ellihikes]

🤗😇😇

[@matthewfitzpatrick1472]

Lets Go!✌

[@johntaylor4926]

This stretch is a killer well done Elli❤

[@ellihikes]

Hahaha, it really is 😅 Thank you so much!!

[@malcolmjoyce2049]

Amazing video. Beautifully put together, bringing back great memories of that stretch when I walked the Path in April 2022! I met you on the Tarka Trail. Since then you have just carried on walking with Otto. What a hero! 😊

[@ellihikes]

Yes, I remember of course! Thank you so much for the kind words, that means a lot :) It's just so beautiful on the coast path, I was so happy to hike the first part of it again :)

[@paulrobertson8068]

I went from Heartland Quay to Bude in a day... When I got there I had two pasties n 2 two lots of chips! Its a wonderful stretch. I know your obviously filming alot and they probably get in the way - but I found using poles made it so much easier

[@ellihikes]

It's really stunning, one of my favorite parts :) you're totally right about the poles. I really like hiking with them and always have them but sometimes when I'm filming and having Otto on the lead, it's just too much of a hassle, gets tangled up and I end up carrying them in one hand or putting them away... not ideal, would love to use them always.... 🙈

[@southerncomfortuk]

Great video and well done on your achievement. Watching on my phone, when you’re speaking to camera, the rucksack sometimes has the appearance of a giant bird with a yellow beak peering over your shoulder.

[@ellihikes]

😅😅 thank you so much for following along, I really appreciate that:)

[@THE-RIVER-RAT]

Hi Elli & Otto, Wow Elli those were some bloody steep hills. But OMG some amazing views from the top, by any chance were you a bit tired-Shit shit shit lol... I think Otto had the right idea (I will just lay here and let Mum tickle my belly) So cute. Sad to say but it looks like we're almost coming to the end of this amazing expedition.🥲 Take care 😜✌

[@ellihikes]

Hahaha, yes! The cliffs in Cornwall are no joke 😅 But also very beautiful :) No worries, Otto and I already went on another adventure. We only lasted about 10days without hiking and we were back out again :)

[@THE-RIVER-RAT]

@@ellihikes Well that's great news 👍 looking forward to seeing your new adventures.
