I know there is no way for the camera to show just exactly how beautiful it is in those Mountains! Its breathtaking to imagine!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Couldn't agree more, it's always better in real life and no matter how many videos I watch, you have to be there to fully appreciate it. Real good you of you to stop by and I hope you guys are both well, cheers Alan

[@TeaInValhalla]

Good morning Alan, wow the bird song that accompanied you at the start, fabulous! What a great looking walk, and that bunk house/cottage would be an amazing base camp for the family. Oooh no at the jackett/GP fail, soda law hey! Really loved the look of this path, and as always the amazing veiws.looked look an alien planet at the top, loved it! As Kats says some of these hills and mountains dont look like humans should be there, yet we ate drawn to them poles moths to a flame. No wonder you loved it Alan, cracking stuff. Dont think we fancy jogging it tho 🤭 much happy plodding and sipping teas. A route we would very much like to try one day, maybe our next trip up 🤗 like you we would likely start earlier, brilliant video as always, thanks Alan a great 8.5 miles! Big thumbs up, have a good week, Ceri and Kat ♥️☕👍⛰

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks very much for watching guys and I love an early start, the drive over the Moors was brilliant, deserted roads and then a deserted car park when I got there. Never saw anyone for the first 3 hours almost, which suited me fine, so I could soak in all the views in peace. Only problem was I forgot it was the school holidays😖, so the Ullswater Way was real busy, which is why I climbed up again, still a real good day and funny enough when I was setting off for home there were cars still trying to get into the car park - madness! Cheers Alan

[@MamasBasecamp]

Amazing views! Yes, the outdoor places are no longer places of solitude, busier than ever! Maybe it's a good thing. More people caring about these places means a better probability of them being preserved or conserved into the future. Thanks for sharing those stunning views!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

My thoughts exactly and if I need solitude I go early, which I did on this one. I did forget it was school holidays mind😖, which made the afternoon a bit too busy for me. Thanks for stopping by, cheers Alan

[@burningsandsexploration3711]

What a wonderful walk! The countryside is amazing! So nice that you had the trail all to yourself. So beautiful.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

It was so quiet when I got there and it was over a couple of hours before I saw anyone, such a peaceful morning. It got busier on the afternoon but I forgot, the schools were off on holiday 😳. Thanks for stopping by, cheers Alan

[@BadHairAdventures]

What views... We'll have to visit some day soon, and when we do finally visit, I'm gonna state that it's Alan METALMAN that inspired the journey. Cheers dude, appreciate you sharing, Atb James

[@AlanMETALMAN]

I like the sound of that 😛. I hope toy get the same weather if you do make it up North🌞, well apart from the wind, it was blowing a gale on the tops. Thanks for watching, cheers Alan

[@guitarmeetsscience]

I can see why this would be Mrs. Metalman's favorite hike. This was gorgeous - especially at 04:20 and 05:21... there are a lot more time stamp worthy views in this, especially the ones when you showed the surrounding water when you got up high. 8 miles - wow! It looked like a picture perfect day, and you really got some beautiful shots there Alan!!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks very much for watching and a real nice days hiking, dam windy on the tops but nothing was going to spoil it for me. I was blowing at the end mind but then again, I normally always am lol, cheers Alan

[@northeastfamilyadventures9186]

Bit of a solo walk this time Alan? Good thing for those breezes, you guys get zero shelter from that sun up there. Stunning views all around though, that's the benefit of no trees, you get good views and you get them nice and early through the whole hike almost. Nice to have the first half all to yourself at least. Makes these places just that extra special. "the higher you are, the better the views!" Love that mantra Alan. Super kickass hike, 8.5 miles is a great clip, you certainly worked for those views!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

I was blowing at the end and totally forgot about the schools being on holiday, so the afternoon was a lot busier than the morning, when I hardly saw anyone. I set off from home at 04.30, so not many people want to come with me then 😁. Thanks very much for stopping by, cheers Alan

[@BanshanMarwein]

Wow what an incredible and cinematic vlog man. The birds chirping is so pleasing

Real nice of you to stop by and take the time to watch, very much appreciated. A real nice and very early walk to beat the hot sun and the crowds, cheers Alan

[@RVAHikerGirl]

When in doubt take the path with less people even if its harder. I am like you. I prefer trails with less people on them. As always stunningly beautiful landscapes on this hike. You had the perfect weather to see as far as the eye can see on this day. What a day for you out in beautiful UK mountains.

To true and I like an early start to miss all the crowds but I forgot the schools were off on holiday😖, so the afternoon was not as peaceful as the morning. Thanks very much for stopping by, cheers Alan

Now that's how you start the day isn't it Alan. Fabulous early morning weather, the sound of nature coming to life and spectacular views as you get on your way and throughout the day.

Grrrrr those false summits nothing worse lol. Your videos are just inspiring thank you for sharing. I always look forward to seeing them. Just awesome 👌

Thanks very much for watching Emma and a favourite Fell of mine, as well as one of the closest to home. The morning was brilliant, didn't see anyone for about 3 hours but I forgot about the schools being off, so the afternoon was a lot busier, especially on the Ullswater Way. Take care, cheers Alan

[@ombushlilly2989]

Fantastic Alan, my favourite fell. I took the wife up there last year and I recall the wind was savage, so many people hanging onto the trig-stone and all were laughing so much at just trying to stay upright. Thanks for another great vid.

It’s very true, The higher you are , the better views you can see. Even the false summit looks very high already. What an amazing view up there. A little bit windy and maybe challenging with all those loose rocks. I can’t blame Mrs.Metalman, it’s really a pleasant path with the great view of the lake. Another amazing hike Alan!

I’m well jealous Alan. Looks like I missed all of that sun when I was there last week. The views are spectacular on a clear day aren’t they? Those rocky mountain paths certainly demand a bit of due care and attention and a good set of walking poles for the descent! Fab video as always Alan. Really enjoyed this one 👍

Hello Alan I was just thinking how peaceful it was looking up that fell when you mentioned it was getting busy on the path.

What a gorgeous day you had (despite the wind on the top), amazing views! That must have been a sight though you crawling 😁 but I totally understand lol! I keep thinking that we passed by Dodd Fell last year on our way up to Helvellyn from Grasmere (Via Grisdale Tarn)?? Or am I confusing that?? 😜 thank you for another great video Alan. Cheers!!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Grisdale Tarn is close by but the other way to where I was walking. That wind was a bloody mare on the tops, ruined some good footage but I still enjoyed the day, despite the path getting busy on the afternoon, I forgot the schools were on holiday😖. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

Five Star Film Alan ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing clarity, are you filming in 8K? Yes that walk is very special and the weather superb. Loved the view back towards Brotherswater, makes me want to head up there right this minute. Cheers Mike.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Still with the Hero 7 Black Mike and still filming at 2K but it really comes into it's own on a bright day. The morning was brilliant, never saw my first person for almost 3 hours but I forgot the schools were off on holiday, so the Ullswater Way was busy 😳. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@TheCountryTraveller]

You were up with the lark Alan! Particularly spectacular view at 5.19, absolutely gorgeous. What was the building at 9.25 - a shepherd's hut? Tx for sharing what looked to be a fantastic walk. All the best, Rob

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Unsure Rob to be honest but it had one hell of a view I do know that. I was up at 04.30 to get there nice and early, just the way I like it, cheers Alan

[@BurtonOutdoors]

WIndy!! Those are some rocks Alan, you don't wanna be going over on that shale etc. Fantastic views as always on your vids Alan. What you got in your drink? Lemon squash? I hate seeing loads of people when I'm walking, hiking... kinda spoils it for me... but everyone has a right to get Outdoors, preferably not on my path though 😂🤣 How's retirement treating you though? You look so well. Lee

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Haha, you guest it, Lemon squash it is and I find it real refreshing when I am outdoors on a warn day. I always try to start real early to beat the crowds but forgot it was school holidays😖. Retirement is great, I can thoroughly recommend it😀. Thanks for watching Lee, cheers Alan

[@HikeCamp]

Great hike Alan... I would hope you don't do to that bench same as the dogs....LOL I don't mind loose rock going up but coming down I mind it quite a bit...

[@AlanMETALMAN]

I did actually 😁 and always do every time I pass there 😂. I think it is the trickerling stream that is right next to the seat that sets me off lol. Thanks very much for stopping by Max, appreciate it buddy, cheers Alan

nice peaceful early start mate 👍 patterdale always a good starting point & free parking 😁 its sad the amount of people you acknowledge when out who just look at you like you don't exist . rant over 😁 take care.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Tell me about it, never had so many but there were a load of tourist that got off the steamer to walk back to Patterdale just as I started to walk around and I forgot it was the school holidays😖. Still had a brilliant day out like, so not complaining. Thanks for watching Cheers Alan

[@D.C.Outdoors]

Looks like a nice walk that mate I've never done place fell might have to do that walk soon. How many miles was it and how long did it take you mate

[@AlanMETALMAN]

It was about 8 miles in total and to be honest cannot remember how log but I always take loads of breaks any ways. Place Fell is one of my favourite Fells, always love it and one of the closest to home, cheers Alan

Alan where did you park mate

[@AlanMETALMAN]

I always park at the Patterdale Hotel, plenty of parking and £5 all day. There is room for about 4 cars just passed the shop opposite the White Lion pub, which are free but you have to be there early to get them, cheers Alan
