Back on the Capital Ring and PART 5... In this video, I start back at South Kenton and then simply walk as far as I can across the very top of the Ring. Parks, woods, rivers and canals: another satisfying chunk of my London adventure is completed!

In this video, I camp on a budget! I went on Vinted and set myself a challenge of buying a tent with a budget of just £20 to sleep in. I put an offer in and got it for an amazing £15. What happens when I camp in it though...especially when on a windy clifftop? Will it protect me from rain too??

In this video, I take the @OnewindOutdoors Tempest 11' Zipper hammock to the woods to see how it would compare to my previous, and first ever, hammocking experience (courtesy of Aldi). I head out in the fifth heatwave of the season and it didn't really go to plan...

Visiting Exmoor has been on the to-do list for so long now. I’ve heard so much about it over the years that I thought it was time to travel the 200 miles to the south west for some serious hiking and (hopefully) camping. It’s also been extremely hot in London these last 2-3 months. Very hot. I really did feel the need to get out of the oven to seek out cooler climes.

Back on the Capital Ring and PART 4! In this video, I start back at Richmond Bridge and complete three sections 1. Richmond - Osterley Lock 2. Osterley Lock - Greenford 3. Greenford - South Kenton Total distance covered is about 16 miles, taking me to mile 50 out of 78. I keep on saying it but the Capital Ring is a really underrated trail that captures truly wild spaces around London helping you to escape the noise.

Two years ago, I hiked Wainright's Coast to Coast. It was the longest walk I had every done and probably one of the best experiences of my life. It wasn't easy though and I learnt a lot! In this livestream I break it all down: planning, gear, re-supplying, camping, weather, the mental grind and my top tips for doing this incredible trail. Please do get in the live chat and ask me anything about the C2C and I'll do my best to answer it! Thanks tor watching.

The Capital Ring walk is a 78-mile trail that circumnavigates inner London. It was created in 2005 by the London Walking Forum. It passes through the many green spaces in the capital: woods, fields, parks and more. In Part 3, I walk 13 miles from Streatham Common to Richmond Bridge via Wimbledon. Hopefully no rain this time!

The King Charles III England Coast Path is a brand new national trail that follows the entire coastline of England. It was opened by the King on 19 March 2026. There are still some bits of it to be finished but when completed it will be the longest managed coastal trail in the world at 2,700 miles. For this video, I hike 8 miles along the Suffolk stretch (and back) and wild camp in my new tent: the TFS Tents Enran 2 (EU edition).

'How do I find a wild camping spot?' is a very common question for those new to the pastime. In this video, I show you the method that has worked best for me these last few years. Always leave absolutely no trace when wild camping and pitch as late as possible if you don't know who the landowner is.

What powerbank should you take when hiking or camping? 5,000, 10,000 mAh or more? What does 'mAh' even mean? How do I get fast charging? In this video, I go back to basics on all things powerbanks so you can have a clearer idea of what to buy, and how to prepare, for outdoors adventures.

The Capital Ring walk is a 78-mile trail that circumnavigates inner London. It was created in 2005 by the London Walking Forum. It passes through the many green spaces in the capital: woods, fields, parks and more. In fact, a lot of the time you just don't feel like you're a city of 9 million people! In this video, I walk from Woolwich to Grove Park. Would you like to see me walk more of this trail - or even just complete it?! Have you done it yourself?

In this video, I take the 4-season version of the new 3F UL Lanshan 2 out into very cold forest conditions for a proper overnight camping test. I also talk about the 2026 updates to this very popular tent. Do you use the Lanshan 2? Have you tried the 4-season inner yourself? Have Lanshan general questions? Let me know in the comments and thanks for watching.
