About Dave's Walks
Hi there, I‘m Dave! I've lived in the English Countryside all my life, and I love it! I enjoy walking, and couldn’t help but notice just how beautiful the UK can be away from the cities. I found myself inspired and decided to get some camera equipment and make some walking videos so I can share my walks of the beautiful countryside with everyone!
I mainly focus on small towns, villages, picturesque landscapes, rolling hills and mountains, forests and canals, all along the coastlines in England, Scotland, Wales, and who knows maybe one day further afar!
I upload every Sunday 11.45am GMT (3.45am PST) (6.45am EST) (5.15pm IST) (9.15pm ACST)

I use the free version of Davinci Resolve 16 to do some really basic editing. Mainly making sure the sky isn't over exposed. It's from Camera straight to KZbin. No cuts, no fancy business, no talking, just walking.

Great quarantine viewing. Since I can't go outdoors, this is a brilliant way to bring the outdoors in.

[@DavesWalks]

Excellent, hope you enjoy and that it isn't too long before the quarantine is over

There's a sheep 🐑 !!! A lone sheep !!!😍

Thank you so much for doing a walking video with just the sounds of walking, water and wind, with no constant cuts and abrupt scene changes. So nice to feel like I'm taking the walk.

I just got back from my Wales/ England trip this summer & I met many incredibly kind people there !!

Looks like it would make a good filming location for a historical movie or tv series. Great work Dave!

[@DavesWalks]

Yeah quite the views up there!

[@TheOnlySilverLion]

Another hidden gem (at least for non-locals), with a water, forest and cool paths combo. Well done walking up that mountain, the view is worth it. If there where no fog on the horizon, we could see even further. Nice walk, thank you.

[@DavesWalks]

This is one of my favourite walks I've done! Would indeed be impressive on a crystal clear day!

The perfect treadmill video! So beautiful! Thank you, Dave! 👏

[@DavesWalks]

Glad you enjoyed it! I think a lot of people enjoy my walks from on a treadmill.

[@francoisevitard5272]

It is a magnificent walk that makes you dream!. In the forest, by sometimes dangerous paths because you have to watch where you put your feet!!. And then it's the climb to the sky and it's wonderful wilderness, breathtaking views. The abandoned house, the sheep in the distance, lonely and still this well-marked path but suspended in the air!!. The appearance of the sea is also moving. The eyes only rest on wild and awe-inspiring beauty. And then a house, sheep, hikers resting and life resumes its rights. Really splendid. Thank you Dave 😀😀😀😀😀

[@DavesWalks]

beautiful words as always Françoise😀

[@mariapierce2707]

If someone asks me if I have been to the Welsh countryside I'm going to say "I sure have...Dave took me there!" LOL Thanks for posting ...very calming after a stressful day. Lovely

[@richardbird4702]

Just come across this walk. Know the location well, being of the mining history fraternity. I suppose you well know that this high level stretch is, in fact - unlike the 'old' precipice walk - an old tramway laid down to carry ore from the gold levels higher up the mountain. It ultimately terminated at the dressing mill, the ruins of which are just below the road, down the hill a bit further along. Here, some years ago, were two large cast iron "Britten pans" which had heart shaped mullers driven by water power and which ran around to finely crush the ore with a dose of mercury to separate out the actual gold. I have photos of them. They have long gone. Foel Isbri was ransacked by various adits but largely without much success. Sure is a beautiful vantage point up there thanks to the old miners. Brought back pleasant memories of walking with my late wife there in 2013.

[@DavesWalks]

Thank you for sharing! I do love to here about the lore of the places I visit!

[@southwife]

magnificent.

[@spark_6710]

Where was that sound of water was coming from !!? A stream !?? I wish if you showed it ,too !! Lol.💗💖💕P.S. YAY !!! YOU DID !! 😆 I should had been more patient !!! Lol.🙏

[@lorenstribling6096]

Thank you for the peaceful walk. I have looked at other channels but the host tends to chatter constantly. Very distracting. This felt like a lovely hike in nature. I even found myself breathing hard a few times.

[@DavesWalks]

I too find the constant chatter to be tedious to hear, hence the idea on my channel to just let the views to all the talking. 😊👍

[@sonacapkova]

Děkuji krása 🍁👍

[@fordwayne3833]

Very nice. So peaceful. I want to pitch a tent there and camp for a couple days.

Absolutely beautiful! I'm a new fan of yours. Keep up the good work. Places I will never be able to see. Thank you.

wow what a beautiful forest, and those trees, growing in a perfect line;-)

[@DavesWalks]

It is indeed a beautiful forest! 😊

[@claudebernardin1096]

Gotta be old trash treasure there. I’d dig around doorways up against foundation walls. Also 20/39 feet out along yard wall or walk woods. Dumps of that age ? Bottles would be great! Awesome place!

[@Thefishesaresuperior]

Lovely video. Thank you for sharing your walk. I’m not familiar with the area - why are there so many fallen trees?

[@DavesWalks]

Harsh British weather.. These areas get exposed to some really high winds. And rocky stone floors mean the trees don't get there roots deep into the ground. That's my best guess anyway..

[@wanderingthomas]

Very nice immersive video Dave. Love your nature walks. Can I ask at what bitrate you are uploading with the GH5?

[@DavesWalks]

Thank you for the comment. I am not a great expert in these matters.. yet. I believe the bit rate of all my videos is 1536kbps. No idea if that is the most optimal for this purpose.. or how I'd change it if it wasn't..

[@mariaantoniadasilva8717]

👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@dancleasby151]

Stunning views! I can see why it's called one of the Precipice walks. I love the ruined stone houses along the path as well. Looking at the trail online, did you do the full figure eight, or turn around and go back?

[@DavesWalks]

Just a circle route, got back to the main road after the precipice walk, back to the car park in the nearby town.

[@michaelplanchunas3693]

Looks like a tree plantation with spaced trees in rows. Also, too many 'widow makers' being held up by branches. Not safe in a storm.

[@DavesWalks]

What's the school project may I ask?

[@rayamc4018]

@@DavesWalks omg hii and also its becasue we cant go out here where i live so the school finds these videos and they ask us how it makes us feel and what we hear. its more for mind fullnes because many children are struggling with mental health so this might be a good way to calm people. Our prodject was we had to write a story about nature.

[@MyWalkAround]

17:20 - would be cool to camp out there!

[@DavesWalks]

Yeah definitely!

[@claudebernardin1096]

Who trims the path? I can’t get over the view. Where is this?

[@DavesWalks]

unfortunately I have no idea who trims the path. It's in Wales and the view is looking towards Barmouth :)

[@andikahariwijaya]

What a camera you can use on walking around? GoPro or camera with tripod?

[@DavesWalks]

I would stay far away from the GoPro brand if you can. Incredibly unusable for this style of content. GoPro is very much geared for extreme use like mountain bike riding etc. I use the pocket 2 now, which has a mini physical gimbal so that the horizon is always level, it is very accurate at what it does. Downside is it is not waterproof.

[@andikahariwijaya]

@@DavesWalks awesome, thanks man you're my inspiration. You had a good content, I love it

[@darkstarr2321]

Wonder how long the house at 18:13 has been abandoned for?

[@DavesWalks]

Easily a good few hundred years I would have to guess? maybe even over a 1000! I know there are some ruins and castles in Wales that date back to the 11th century and earlier.
