Fair play to you Patrick for tackling that precarious section and reaching the trinnacle.a lovely video Patrick yet again my friend ❤

That was quite a hike, Patrick. I've yet to hike to the Trinicles, but I've been up to Ashway Moss and along Dovestones. Certainly a beautiful hike. But I was short on time, so I got off before Chew. Another fantastic hike, Patrick. Thanks for sharing.

@solitaryrambler 9 месяцев назад

Another walk I deliberately saved for a long summers day Chris, and possibly my favourite one this year to film. The walk up to the Trinnacle is certainly worth it if you're ever up that way again. Thanks Chris for your comments and for taking the time to watch, always appreciated 👍

Patrick, i would just like to say thank you for inspiring me to take in this wonderful walk after seen your video. And it certainly did not disappoint. From the start of the walk by Yeoman Hey Reservoir to the stunning and at times testing scramble up Birchen Clough, to the truly special sight of the Trinnacle itself followed by the perfect sunset over Alphin Pike. A tough but very rewarding walk and day. Thank you. 👣🌿⛰😊

@solitaryrambler 6 месяцев назад

I'm so glad you enjoyed this walk Ian and that you were inspired by my video. That scramble up Birchen Clough is great isn't it. The Trinnacle, well it speaks for itself. Now that you've been there you'll know what a fab sight it is indeed. Really pleased you enjoyed this walk, certainly one of the best I've ever done I would say. All the best 👍

Hi Patrick. Wonderful hike in beautiful weather! Couldn't see a thing with the low cloud, last time I was there 😂 Never been up Birchen Clough though. Will have to rectify that👍 Very brave on the Trinnacle, and impressed with the lack of "out of puffness" at the top of the clough! 👍☺

@solitaryrambler 8 месяцев назад

Hi Des, yes I made sure I waited for a good weather day to do this one! 😀 Birchen Clough is a great scramble so I definitely recommend. The Trinnacle was a must-do whilst I was up there, so I would have kicked myself had I not climbed it 😁 Oh and editing is wonderful, I cut out all the bits where I'm panting!! 😂😂😂 Thanks for watching Des, all the best 👍

All of this moorland that you show on this video is remarkable in scenery, with there being these reservoirs to complement the scenery, Patrick. Birchen Clough was a tough one over those rocks, but what was most surprising was the Trinnacle, and you went to the top of it, amazing. A very enjoyable film to watch, Patrick, many thanks for showing us the area.

You were smiling all the way up that Clough Patrick. I don't blame you - it was spectacular-beautiful. Maan, it was gnarly and full of vistas today as well as climbs up pinnacles. I loved that - kind of chuckled at your joy. I favor the old building being a shooting lodge for the estate of the day. They had a few of them. This walk was full of wonders - Chew valley was and is awesome. Well, a fantastic loop walk. One of your best this year. Mark

@solitaryrambler 9 месяцев назад

I sure was smiling Mark, Birchen Clough was a great scramble, the kind of walk I reckon you'd really enjoy. Yeah I had to get up the Trinnacle, one of those "must-do" things on the walk. Lots of vistas indeed on this one, I enjoyed it more perhaps as this was my first time on this walk. I bet you're right about the old building, I can see that being a shooting lodge too. Glad you enjoyed Chew Valley, it was an awesome one through which to descend to Dovestone Reservoir. Thanks Mark, it was a favourite of mine this year to film too. All the best down there 👍

What majestic views. British countryside at its best. That was some rocky terrain you mastered to get to the trinnacle. As for jumping from one to the other, you wouldn't get me on even one of them. You were very brave getting up there and deserve a medal but a pat on the back should suffice. Loads of reservoirs up there but I've always liked Dovestone the best. I think that small home could have been for shooting parties. If it was an actual home, then it puts that old hovis advert to shame, if you walked for a loaf of bread. Excellent as always and great to see the amount of views this has received already. Cheers Patrick 😁

@solitaryrambler 9 месяцев назад

Cheers Kelly. Yes this was certainly one of the more challenging walks I've filmed. Climbing up onto the Trinnacle wasn't too bad actually, and it's not really as high as it might look. I certainly wouldn't jump from one to the other though! I think I like Dovestone Reservoir best too and I agree with you about the small home. Long way to walk for a loaf of bread 😁 I'm actually really astonished how quickly I've got so many views on this one, but it's lovely of course. Thanks Kelly as always for watching and commenting 👍

You had a lovely day for seeing the landscape at its best. It's my local area, but we tended to reserve local walking and climbing for the shorter days of winter, so rarely saw it at its best. Good snowy days in winter though, and that had a beauty all of its own, and its challenges. Very enjoyable to see it all again. You must have passed a rock known as the dove stone, which, when viewed on the skyline from below, bears a resemblance to a dove, and presumably gives its name to Dovestones.

@solitaryrambler 9 месяцев назад

Morning Michael, it was wonderful shooting this walk. Like my other recent walks, I saved this for a long summer day as I knew it was a longer one and more challenging in places. I remember passing Dove Stone Rocks marked on the OS map, but I definitely missed seeing a rock resembling a dove. Thanks as always for watching 👍

Yet another stunning walk Patrick and professional video., You were very lucky with the weather. Dove Stone is probably best visited midweek (If possible) as it always gets very busy at weekends and you can struggle to find a place to park. Do NOT try to park on the main road up from the main entrance as the traffic wardens have a field day dishing out tickets.

The Bins Green car park useful to know about, instead of Dovestones car park. So familiar places walked by ourselves. I was intrigued to see that scramble up Ravenstones/Birchen Clough having avoided it myself. Excellent filming up. Bet you did some running about between camera positions. Held my breath whether or not you would climb up the Trinnacle, What an achievement. I know Michael has years ago. I couldn't do it!! (I've notice two spellings of Dovestones too!) Your best film yet and loved the music. Really enjoyed this Patrick.

@solitaryrambler 9 месяцев назад

Thank you so much for all your kind words Shanita, always appreciated. I was very pleased with this film too, so I'm glad you really enjoyed this one. There was quite a bit of running about between camera positions, but again, I chose to shoot this on a long summers day in order to give myself plenty of time. I had to climb the Trinnacle whilst I was there, and to be fair it wasn't as difficult as I thought. The filming of the scramble up Birchen Clough was the hardest bit actually, but still very enjoyable. Thanks again Shanita for all your support. Have a great week 👍

Excellent Patrick. You’ve captured this area of the Peak District incredibly well, stunning 😊when you get a chance, please could you send me a GPX file for your route? Many thanks xx

Thanks Rachel. It was a treat for me to film this walk being a bit further away from home. Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope to see you again soon 👍😀

As a photographer, The Trinnacle and the associated reservoirs have been on my list for a number of years, but like you it has been just that too far to travel. Your excellent video has now inspired me to make the effort. Keep up the good work. Incidently, the spelling on the OS map is Dove Stone. 👍

Many thanks for your kind words Phil. Hope you manage to get to Dovestone and the Trinnacle soon. I'm glad I finally managed to get there 👍😀

Well done on climbing the triangle. Looked a bit hairy!

I would have kicked myself had I not climbed it whilst there. Thanks for watching 👍

Hi Patrick. Another stunning film again so amazing views. You were very brave climbing Trinnicle. I don't think I would have jumped across either. Thanks for another great film. Have a great weekend. 😊👍

Thanks Cath, it was a lovely walk to film again. I had to climb the Trinnacle or I would have kicked myself. Thanks for watching and have a great weekend too 👍
