Solo Coast to Coast Hike ( Part 1 ) 

I'm struggling to find time to reply to comments, but I do read them all and appreciate your kind and hilarious typings. Much Love!

Having a shit day, text my mate and said I’m going to chill and rewatch haze doing the coast to coast. Probably now the 5th time I watched it

There's something very special about doing a long distance walk. 3 years ago I walked 450 miles from northern France to Lancaster in memory of my dad so I can understand you doing your walk for your grandad. You are a very talented film maker and I'm so glad to have found your videos.

Peak Haze! Watching this for the second time, your videos got me started wild camping a year ago today exactly at 43yo.....I go out almost weekly now, when family time allows, all over my native North York Moors from moors to sea. Cheers Dude, all the best and thanks for the entertainment and encouragement 🙏

Whenever I feel down I watch this and it cheers me up and reminds me how I can do better well done hazey your grandad will be proud xx

I love the reason behind your choosing to do this walk. And the views are just breathtaking.

Hey mate, i moved from the UK to the US about 18 years ago. I do a lot of this over here but miss the good old UK land scape terribly. Cheers for the videos!

Really moved by your love and respect for your Grandfather...what a great inspiration! Great video and commentary...thanks so much for sharing this...Starting on Part II now! ATB!

Even coming in for 2 years later, when I'm feeling like the world's getting on top of me, I still come back and watch this series. Considering doing this with my dad in mind, as he's in the late stages of a terminal illness.

Mate this is like a favourite classic movie, it stands up to watching many times. Thanks for sharing your journey Haze. Respect to Grandad.

I watched all of these videos two weeks ago before my own crack at it... now, after a successful completion (yesterday morning), I find myself watching again, with even more enjoyment, recognising every shot and reliving it! Ah, mate - what an adventure it was! And I've stopped now, at 22:45, because it's just made me laugh out loud - I swear that flat bit of land you're camping on there just outside of Stonethwaite is the exact same bit I did just last week! Great minds...

Stumbled upon this researching the coast to coast walk. Very glad I did. Heartwarming and made me chuckle a few times. Subbed as it makes me happy!

Love the story of your grandad and your walk in his footsteps. Good hiking video for in the UK.

When your five weeks into Lockdown and craving some Lake District...there's no better video than Hazys AW C2C part 1....really takes me there man x

Spot on mucker, wicked start to the walk. I can feel a trip coming on.

"iv done it in past, iv laid the nut on" hahahaha cracked me up that

"I don't want any beef... no pun intended!"... man you made my day! :)

Was dead chuffed when you showed Blacksail youth hostel, my climbing partner and I often talked about walking to that particular hostel. I’m disabled now and spend a lot of time in a wheel chair. Whilst she wheeled me round a local national trust property (Nymans ) she told me she’d looked into whether we could reach it via hired quad bikes. I never told her but I was so touched that she’d looked into it that I bawled like a baby all the way on my drive home. Thank you, I’m loving your adventures.

Mr Haze. I’m starting the coast to coast tomorrow. You’ve inspired me mate. So hats off to you. Take it easy.

EPIC! So looking forward to this and enjoying the journey. Thanks for taking us along. Kudos for taking a stone for your Grandad (Boom! Fist Pump!).

'Take your time and smell the roses.' I like that Hazy. A great start and inspiration for the hike = a fabulous story about your gramps! Hey thanks for the tip on cold soaking breakfast - I've never thought of that. Saves time and energy. Well, I wont go on - I enjoyed every mile. Good going - nice pitches. Take care. Mark

Thanks Mr haze re watching your vids of your trip one last time before I set out on my own c2c next month. Different class for all the others. Many thanks

Awesome and inspirational video , absolutely loved every second of it. Looking forward to part 2 , amazing time lapse once again .

What fantastic motivation Really enjoyed the story of your grandfather. Best outdoors channel. Legendary crew.

I’ve watched other hiking RU-vid videos and no one does as good a job. They just hike and don’t show the map or give a sense of the country and how it changes. I’m really enjoying your story. Have always wanted to do the coast to coast but I think I’m too old now and have missed my chance! Thanks for the videos!

Great to see this brings back some fantastic memories for me. The best long distance walk I ever done. That tent looks the business. Cheers H man 👍 and thanks for taking the time to put the vids together it must take ages. Piece to ya..

Going back through your old videos! This was a great adventure - love it

Great stuff, amazing scenery, well done on covering as much as you did, Looking forward to part 2 ATB !

I also do the cold soak brekkie method, works a treat and saves fuel. Good choice of fortifications - cinnamon, chia and goji berries = boosts of antioxidants, protein, vitamins and importantly fibre. Although with the long days you're doing i'd probably boost the energy content further with some dark choc and peanut butter mixed in. Got to get that energy in:energy expended balance. Inspiring stuff btw

Thanks for sharing this with the world! Always wanted to do that hike, now at least I've got an idea of what it's like.

What a great way to record your adventure. You do the old man proud. Stick in your inspiring people to get out and put the RU-vid away.

Nice wee video there! i am walking with me dad this July 2021.. excited, and your videos helped, especially with the overnight oats! genius! no messing about in the morning. love it. onto part two. and lovely for your grandad memory

Really enjoy your day reviews with the map.

Love all your videos, Haze. You are like the Cam Hanes of outdoor camping. What you're doing, in memory of your granddad, is very special and I look forward to seeing more of your trip. If you ever visit Japan, I'd be happy to take you hiking around my area. All the best.

Cracking vid hazel, did this 20 years ago on a bike, nice to see your route ,brings back some good memories mindyou did it in winter which had a fair bit of snow burrrrrr🍻 Will

Absolutely brilliant. Looking forward to seeing the next part

precious gift from your Grandad

watching this series again cos it's excellent. Hopefully do it myself soon.

I've only just found this channel and oh my god this guy is a legend!!!!!!!

Good on you. My attempt failed at Grasmere back in March, 4ft deep of snow on the tops. I will do it again next year.

Honestly mate, the bants you have with the animals along the way cracks me up so much! Proper chuckling at that I was man. Love you Hazey you're a true gem!

Big up Grandad Haze and his 1970's Joey Von D sidekick and a big up to you sir Haze-O. Looking forward to the next episode

Currently rewatching this in lockdown V3, cheers me up every time and makes me look forward to the time I can hopefully do this

This is brilliant! Both the filming and the hike. And the landscape of course. I'm going to hike the C2C walk in late August, so I'm thankful for every piece of advice I can get. This video is a great aid for my planning and I'm looking forward to watching the other parts after work :)

I’m kind of late to all this and only recently subscribed to your channel but I’ve gotta say I’m really enjoying your films and I’m looking forward to being able to get out once this lockdown finishes. Thanks man. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Fantastic walk about. Cheers

A lovely story behind this. Well done you. Found your channel by chance, searching for vids of C2C walks, and wound up binge-watching the Haze Outdoors channel during lockdown. I used to be a glamper back in the day, and planned last year to do some long-distance hikes and wild camping. Now mother's dementia has gotten worse, and I've wound up her full-time carer, so everything's on hold for a while longer. It's all good. All about priorities - and with Covid, not much chance of getting out and about anyway right now. Thanks for all the vids, and hard work you put into them. Good luck for 2021. (Kudos to Joey D...legend. The ale supping and fishing vids are inspired). All the best. Sorry for the essay. J xx

That picture of your grandad in the big red waterproof gear brought back memories for me .ihad the same gear

Been waiting for this video, I can’t wait for part 2. Well done Haze!!

This series was always the best. I like to revisit it from time to time.

You create addiction! Many thanks for everything you share, good energy! All the best from Romania.

Well done your granddad on doing the c2c back in the day...mid to late 70s! Took him a while mind!! Weyyyy

I’m SOOO happy to see this!! It’s been obscenely hot here (temp gauge on my truck said 109 F today) and I was rather grumpy for suffering thru it all, so to finally get in front of an AC and have a fun and delightfully entertaining video to watch, definitely improved my day and attitude ;) lol .. thanks so much for taking the time to film your adventure and share it with us Hon! I know it’s not always exactly fun to film when you are immersed in your surroundings, so thank you for doing it :) .. I’m sure your granndad is proud of you! The scenery is stunning, & so different from here.. you do a great job with that camera :) Don’t work too hard, I’m sure you’re smack in the middle of your busy season! ATB ~Ruth

Love your sense of humour lad. Got me feet up with a mug of tea, but I'm walking every step vicariously

Epic long distancer! Thanks for sharing enjoyed watching over breakfast 🥞 🌲

Well made , very interesting , fancy giving it go . Great that you are following in your grandfathers steps . Weird to see you so serious . Looking forward to the next one .

That book will be something to treasure for generations of the Haze clan. Looking forward to part 2.

Good stuff lad, I should've done this last year instead of the SUW and sacking it after 5 miserable days and 2 turned ankles. Looking forward to pt2

I’ve just watched you videos, and it cracked me up. Done the Offers Dyke last year, and I’m still suffering from Planter Facetious. But your video as made me want to do this walk. Thanks

This is awesome mate gonna watch part 2 now 👍🏻 I no ash is doing this this coastal trek, id love to do it.. Fair play to your grandad, that's when men were men 😂😂😂😂

Top vid Mr Haze. Props to your grandad for doing the same journey in the late 70's with old school heavy gear. Thanks for sharing Haze, looking forward to part 2. Atb Sconja 👍

Timelapse: Totally worth it! :-)

28 minutes flew by, excellent !

Entertaining as always. Super story and drive as well looking forward to part 2 👍

Great shot of you at 22:40. Awesome place to camp.

i'm loving working my way through your videos, top quality style you have got going on, don't ever change that! 'put the nut on, killed it obviously' ha ha ha

How can anyone dislike this video? Blows my mind. Save travels!

Wow great hike! HUGE LIKE for this friend

Very cool bit of family history.

Fine effort Hazy. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the yomp! Top video as always👍

Mate the laying of the nut on the bull story is something I come back for on the reg

Ireland is beautiful. I spread my wife's ashes there because she was Irish and wanted to return home. Good luck mate on your journey.

Hey hey Hazy. Walking in your Grand-Dad's footsteps, with his own copy of Wainwright's guide, is a thing to be proud of. Looks like you're enjoying it, so far. Hope the weather stayed nice, but as you're up north, I doubt that it did for nine days. Looking forward to the rest of the series...

I ran the coast to coast with a group of students in the nineties, six teams, ten miles a day each team, one member of staff each team, three and a bit days-boom. Must do it slowly and see all of it one day. All the best, peace out.

Loving your uploads! Can't wait to see part 4! Much respect 😁

Man I'm chuffed the Lanshan is serving you well and I can't wait for part 2. That adventure foods hot pot is my favourite of all their varieties, the mash warms the cockles. My only gripe was that you didn't review the latch on that first gate ;)

Was this a pilgrimage for your Grandfather. Incredible trek. Loved the video. Thank you.

Oh faintastic! Reminds me so much of my ramblings in the UK in the 90ties. How i wish i could have videod it. All i had was the old pentax ME @ 5 kilos, and the scribblings on my map. Now fading memories. That route looks so much nicer as the southern upland way. That is all bog high and low. Nice going mate keep it up don't blow the gasket! Cheers! Praise! Oh LORD fuck yeah

Great video, such a wonderful landscape. A bit disappointed that here was no "gate latch review" at the lighthouse.

Enjoyed watching the views are amazing

I hiked the C2C last year and loved every minute.

Really a nice watch. Great filming and talking the whole movie. Id like to see a bit more film material you didnt use. Hope to visit ireland one day!

Love your funny things you come out with,where you from, iam from est medlands,you all ways make me laugh I feel like I no you,lol

Brilliant video mate. Looking forward to part 2.

Great video series mate impressive pace it seemed to me and walking on a busted ankle is like walking on knives with the heavy pack to boot! Congrats on the achievement and respect to ur gramps.

what is that breakfast stuff called ertz? Amazing video as always!! Thankyou for taking the time to make it!!

Wow, this looks amazing. I honk I need to train for it.

Front page. Hazy following in grandfather's footsteps literally. Reinactment of grandad's coast to coast hike from the 70s.

Beautiful hearing the cuckoo while you filmed the black lamb at 19.00! Great vid, look forward to the next episode.

I was a clown for forty years. This was so painful because EVERY STEP WAS WRONG. Your feet were being smothered inside the clown shoes and crazy socks the whole time and every step you slammed your heel into the ground. The clown shoe protected a bit, but the impact travelled up your straight leg and slammed that knee joint with EVERY SINGLE STEP. Damn! No wonder the simple act of walking across the Earth destroyed your legs. LOSE THE CLOWN SHOES!

Boil in the bag rain coat... pmsl 🤣

Your Grandads book is absolutely priceless! Now I am searching for a similar copy.

I love the song of the Sky Lark when you were on the hill after your 1st camp.

Great watch cheers bud from the isle of wight

Enjoyed the video buddy! Looking forward to the rest of your journey!

Always great to see you out and about fella :)

Excellent stuff young man. You're not as wimpy as I thought. On to part 2.

Nice one, good luck... big up yer Granddad, and big up YO self

Nice one hazy lad, I've gone and broken my back and laid up at home, so watching my fave tubers get out is the only thing keeping me sane

Great stuff Hazey, had the C2C on my radar for a while. Looks awesome. Got my own little adventure on Saturday, 108 PW mile race from Edale to Hardraw, aiming for 40hrs non stop. Looking forward to the next instalment. Big up from the dark end of the Peak District.
