Simonside Hills in the Northumberland National Park

A glorious walk in the Cheviot Hills in the Northumberland National Park, taking in The Beacon, Dove Crag and Simonside, making a great 5 mile loop in full sun, with some stunning views. I walked with ‪@eddiecaisley5746‬ and parked in the free car park, about 4 miles outside of the village of Rothbury, before climbing our first summit of the day.

[@K_j_M]

You took the easy route! I go in from the bottom carpark and just hoof straight up. Going to have a go at this one for the distance next time

[@AlanMETALMAN]

It was my first ever visit there so I was a bit unsure exactly where to park but great to have a bit of local knowledge with me, so it turned out to be a brilliant day, I really enjoyed it. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

Great weather to go for a hike, Alan, amazing clear skies........................ Colin just came in and immediately said: Oh, that's Alan Metalman... you are becoming a celebrity!!! People don't even need to see your face... they immediately recognize your voice! Yes, absolutely stunning day. 1ºC... wow! That is cold... Beautiful music too! Without wind the sun can be warm! Truly beautiful images!!!!

Simon says "Touch your nose", Simon says "Hike this Simonside trail". Reminded me of the game we used to play as kids. LOL. Perfect weather with awesome temps for hiking. I just saw a rare sight on those ridgelines, trees! Awesome! The views were fabulous too. I see the bugs are starting to come out. Time for bug spray season. Great hike with great views. Well done. Have a wonderful day, Alan.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Aye a well known game in this country too lol. Thanks very much for stopping by and I was surprised at how early those bugs were out but we have had a real mind winter this year. Real nice hike and brilliant to have a local guide too, cheers Alan

[@emz_adventure]

If anyone can show our Northumberland hills in all their splendour it's you Alan. What a day you had. Seems the good weather follows you everywhere you go. Simonside is truly a stunning place. So glad you and Eddie paid it a visit. Beautifully shot. Lovely to see you out in Northumberland 💗🥾bloody fantastic 👏

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks very much for watching Emma and what a canny little walk that was, really enjoyed it and yes, the perfect weather did help too. We were all parked up at 07.30 after I picked Eddie up and it must have been 2 hours before we saw anyone else, which was great for the Easter holidays. Take care, cheers Alan

[@GENerationXplorers]

What a scorching day Alan, nice to be out with someone who has great knowledge of the area, we are Northumberland virgins, but seeing these videos thats a cherry we are going to have to break. Awesome sea views, so quiet in the Easter holidays, thats a real plus! Love the arm raising at the high point, thats a must! Leg and jaw training, love it! 🤣 them darn pheasants, ive almost had a million heart attacks from them beggars when they startle you. Those path stones are really great, awesome to walk on. The sun is so refreshing, makes the colours really pop. Simons Side was a magnificent summit, thats going on the list! Epic music for the summit of Simons Side. Tossing hill! 🤣 loved every second. Your channel is only one of a handful we wait to watch on the big screen and this, like every other video of yours, did not disappoint, awesome from start to finish! ♥️

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thank you so much for watching and such kind words, which I appreciate. I really need to be doing more in Northumberland too, yes we do our favourite coastal walk (Craster to Low Newton by the Sea) there most years but there is so much more up there to explore. I met up with another KZbinr (The Northern Wayfarer) 3 years ago in Northumberland and we had a brilliant hike to Windy Gyle, on a glorious sunny day in the middle of the school summer holidays yet we only saw 2 people (and a herd of terrifying cows) all day. Defo a place to go for solitude and great views in the Hills there, cheers Alan

[@GENerationXplorers]

@@AlanMETALMAN definitely put it on the map for us. Think we will start with a couple of overnights and get Simons Seat and Craster to Low Newton done in our first visit. A summit and a coastal walk will really give us a great insight into the potential of the area. Thanks for the great tips!

[@JenniferLupine]

Good morning Alan! Beautiful day for your hike! The paths are great, that must have been a lot of work to install…. But so worth it, as you said people have been walking up those peaks for a very long time. Wonderful views all around- I always enjoy your enthusiasm and joy for life!! 😎👍 Thanks!

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Thanks very much for watching Jen and it is days like that which make you feel so grateful to be alive. Shame that weather did not stick around for longer than one day buts that's the UK for you lol. Take care, cheers Alan

Simonside is an amazing walk. I've walked it countless times the way you've walked it and a few times from Rothbury up through Tosson and Simonside woods. Then across the car park you parked at. We then continued back towards Rothbury.

Sounds like some exciting plans to come in the coming weeks too, we will look forward to them. Thanks for taking us along on another adventure. Take care, Shell and Pete

[@AlanMETALMAN]

We live in Co Durham so to get the Cheviots is only an hour yet I have hardly even been except for the honeypot areas like Holy Island etc. I did a video and 3 years ago when I met up with another fellow KZbinr (The Northern Wayfarer) and we went to Windy Gyle right on the Scottish Border and had a brilliant day and I put up (imo) a real good video, which never got the views I thought it deserved. So many great places and view up there and the Windy Gyle video was slap bang in the middle of the school summer holiday and we neve saw I other person all day. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

Hey Alan, I’ve just watched Ashley’s video and he says the 3 of you are out in a couple of weeks. Can’t wait for that!’ The views look spectacular, you definitely picked a glorious day for it, Haha I write these comments as I watch and you’ve just mentioned going out with Ashley 😂😂 I love hiking in winter and the snow but your right I think we’re all ready for the sun now !! Looks like you got a fair few miles under your belt and ticked off a nice handful of summits … Great video again pal 🥾🏔❤️

[@AlanMETALMAN]

I really enjoy walking in fresh snow but real disappointed this year and we never had even a covering in Co Durham. Need that sun to shine now, especially with out plans for next month with Eddie and Ashley, should get some good walks in and have a good laugh too. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@360OutdoorAdventures]

Stunning Alan, it is beautiful up there. I've only been lucky enough to visit once. Our starting point was the way you headed down. Claire's sister used to live in Cambo, it's not far from Simon side just a short drive. Thanks for sharing another great video buddy

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Oh nice one, I bet that was handy to stop over and what a great area to hike in, we never saw anyone for over 3 hours and the views were brilliant, I need to do more from up there. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@VichaAngelivinaCaroline]

Awesome

Thank you so much for watching, real nice of you and I appreciate you dropping a comment too, cheers Alan

[@MartinPopeFilmmaker]

You certainly had the weather that day. Really clear air giving far reaching views. Beautiful. The landscape looked similar to Dartmoor at times. Hope you are getting on OK with your new Gopro Hero 10.🙂🙂

[@AlanMETALMAN]

It's been really good so far Martin, only used it twice but each time came home with a full battery, as it is being constantly charged by the new Volta grip, cheers Alan

[@sharonrobinson421]

Oh my god you and Eddie have just been on the local news bbc 😄😄

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Haha, yes, we were talking to the lass on Look North for ages but looks like we missed the final cut lol, cheers Alan

[@mikeshikes587]

It’s a cracking walk isn’t it. Same sort of weather when we did it but we returned through the forest.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

The forest was closed due to the storm damage, still, which I going hard to believe until I saw the amount of trees still on the ground. A real nice walk out, thanks for watching, cheers Alan

[@roselyncenaspa-alisbo7569]

Wow i only seen like these in the movie sir ! And you two are both like and actor ! Very nice filming and editing your video you are very smart and talented sir , you speak like and actor of an english movie !

[@eddiecaisley5746]

Cracking video of a great day Alan. Next time we should go along to Tosson Hill, ha! Cheers. Eddie.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

I got wrong of Mrs Metalman for saying that, she thought it was crude lol! Really enjoyable walk but need to get some height in next for the SAS route marches Ashley has planed lol! Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@eddiecaisley5746]

Great video Alan looks a nice walk that. And been with Eddie you typically got "Caisley weather"

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Haha, yes, most defiantly, it would most lightly have started to bucket down if I had been by myself lol, think I will have to walk with him a bit more! Thanks very much for watching Ian, cheers Alan

[@petemaccc]

Lovely vid Alan, right on my stomping ground. Been up there in all weathers, in all seasons and at all times of the day and night. Glad you enjoyed it! If you do it again I can recommend tagging on the extra bit to Tosson Hill it gives a great view up the Coquet Valley. I also go up the stairs of death rather than down them with the dodgy knees!! All the best Pete

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Oh I know all about dodgy knees, both of them lol. A real impressive place, love the views we were getting all morning and we never saw anyone else for the first 3 hours, brilliant day out. Thanks very much for watching, cheers Alan

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

A really nice hike on a sunny clear day! I am guessing you shot this on your new GoPro Hero 10? What was your resolution setting in this video? Glad you were able to get out with your friend.

[@AlanMETALMAN]

Yes Eric, first run out with it and still shooting at 2K, as that's all my PC can handle. After buying the new setup up, I would not dare mention a new computer too LOL! Thanks for stopping by, cheers Alan
