I Walked The Deadliest Path in the Country - The Broomway 

Genuinely the most interesting broomway video I’ve seen. Thank you for uploading this, it was brilliant

This reminds me of my childhood when we would walk out onto the tidal flats at Clam Harbour, Nova Scotia to dig for clams at low tide. They had a loud siren/horn that would sound prior to the incoming tide and you had to immediately head back to shore or get caught in the tidal bore. It was fun and exciting as a youngster - and typically later that night the neighbours who'd gone with us would get together in someone's backyard and have a clam bake for everyone. I miss the early 70s.

Reminded me a bit of, when i was a kid growing up in Leigh, i'd stuff a towel and tshirt in a plastic bag, follow the tide out, float down the creek, come "ashore" at Westcliff, and walk home.

I'd never head of this until another tuber - "Walk with me Tim" just happened to go there last week! He didn't venture far onto the sands, just to the end of the pebbles.

I literally just learned about the existence of this thing yesterday and I was disappointed at the lack of Broomway content and you come through like this!!! Serendipity 😎✌🏽

Hi Lorna, you do have some wonderful adventures.It looked scary to me. Don't think I would be a fan of the water coming at me from all directions. Thank you for sharing.

Also never heard of it before. The area is vast and it's easy to see how people would get disorientated. Glad you got back ok.

Loved this! Thanks for taking us along.

Yet another off beaten track you have trodden. You sure are not afraid of taking us to some very interesting and out of the way places Lorna. It content like this that got me subscribed in the first place. David in Dudley.

You certainly have the most interesting walks. Thank you Lorna Jane once again

What an amazing adventure ! What an incredible experience ! What an outstanding video ! What a fantastic woman you are !

I live two mins away from the broomway. lots of explosives gets washed up very frequently around there.

Super video it looks desolate a have sailed along thecedge of the sand coming out of the thames to turn into the crouch the front way one munues there iscsea the shimmering sands and then the sea rushes back to civer the sands.. One day hope to sail in under havengore bridge to crouch..

Great walk! Have you considered doing the walk across Morecambe Bay from Hest Bank to Kent's Bank? In some respects it's comparable. You don't need to worry about the MoD but you definitely need a guide as it's long and potentially dangerous. There are organised walks across it at various times.

Hi ad thanks, Lorna Jane Adventure for sharing. Wow, this is a very fascinating and deadliest adventure but the experience is required for safety. Otherwise, the feet will be buried in the sands. May I ask if this is an aged sunken ship?---5;29 I wonder if I can kayak to the island at high tide. I am glad to know you didn't find any dead bodies. Here in the US, there are the 4th human remains found at Lake Mead caused by water shortage. I hope you are safe and sound. I am looking forward to your new adventure. 🙋‍♀🙋‍♀🛶🛶

I have in the river roach but very shallow where you walked and treachous sinking sand and fast tides. There is a you tube by a sailor called Creek Sailor Tony Smith he sailed round sat on the sands and waited for tide to return he said was so quick and all side.. This the same as Morecombe Sands you can't fast enough to beat the tide...

Great vlog, you get up to the most amazing things. Keep your life full and enjoy every moment. 😊

Great video but always puzzled about being the deadliest path. I live on New road a few hundred yards before you get to the broomway but have never had a problem walking there. If you want to visit the rest of Foulness, then once a month you can visit if you book online.

Oh my gosh! You are brave Lorna! Great video 🙂👍 Cheers Paul

Fascinating. Thanks for bringing us along. I’m another who have never heard of this before.

Loved it. Eerie and fascinating. Wonderful music too.

I had never heard of the Broomway. I would love to explore this. Thanks for taking us along.

Hi Lorna. Very interesting Magic. Thanks for your time and efforts making the video. John

Great video, thanks for sharing - and taking the risks!

Really interesting video, enjoyed it very much - thanks! Now on my bucket list ...

Wow Lorna what a great video. I totally agree with using a guide & Tim was clearly the right man, very interesting, I agree with your end comments. Nice one👍

Very interesting. Thank you for sharing

Very interesting Jane well done

When the last person who dies was over 100 years on its most dangerous trail, one wonders how dangerous the country is.

Great video as usual.

A very intersting video, that tour does look like a fun one to do. :)

When visiting St Michaels Mount in Cornwall there is a similar path that links the island at low tide to the mainland. Despite the advice from staff telling people not to walk back due to the incoming tide, many still attempt to cross. Watching adults placing babies and young kids on their shoulders whilst the water laps around their waist as they attempt to make it back to shore is pretty scary. Of course, once the tide is in enough (~30 minutes) you can get a boat back from the island for a couple of quid each.

That looks like a great walk… I’d have to take a guide too… better safe than not💜

Nature when unassuming is often when it's at its most dangerous. I can imagine people easily walking in the wrong direction when there's not many references or running out of time and then desperately trying to run back before being swallowed up by the sea. As you said, the tide appears in pools all around you, it doesn't just run in from one direction. It must have been terrifying for those that couldn't get back with the water pooling in front of them getting deeper and deeper.

Thank you, was interesting to learn more about this path other than wikipedia

Well done!

Very interesting Lorna .... Never heard of The Broomway before ... Who Knew ?? ..... The lack of Toilet facilities En-route let it down a bit for Me though ..... Probably an 'Age' thing 🥴😵‍💫

6:16 the movement of the water across the sand looks magical but like not in a Disney way... in a dangerous way 👀 old Grimms fairy tale way

Very cool!

How interesting. But, I must have missed "it". Exactly where did you "walk to"? I thought it was an island out there. Thanks for sharing this with all of us. Take care out there and stay safe.

You never see me walk the Broomway but was a awesome video

Nice one. Can see why they used it pre bridges. To avoid all those inlets . Yes very interesting rabbit hole 👍😂. As it's is on OS map , so a map, compass , and drag a canoe... what could possibly go wrong . 🤔😂

Very interesting. I've never heard of the place before.

I hear nothing but the Cure as I watch this....

That's the danger. Underestimating the tide coming in and taking you out

Nice music, sounds like Radiohead - Ok Computer. Also, you can read more about the broomway In the book 'The old Ways".

So clamming is out of the question, eh? Cause a clam might go boom?

how long do you need to walk each way on the broomway?

Never gamble with Mother Nature

Somehow this walk would have been a nope for me, when I could walk / hike. Would rather have climbed mountains. Loved your other walk with...o crap forgot her name, from miminalist..,,,maybe next walk ....

You walk in the mst interesting places... I know there was no danger .but if you use your good ol imagination..it would get scary. Very interesting thank you!

Nobody has registered the route on GPS yet?

Are you allowed to join a walk like this living on the continent too?

I am wondering why anyone back in history wouldn’t just get a row boat to cross instead of using brooms. On an island everyone should own a boat.

I have visited Foulness numerous times in a car. You just need a legitimate reason.
