7 Wainwright Fells- Great Cockup, Meal Fell, Great Sca Fell, Knott, Brae Fell, Longlands Fell & Binsey
A great day spent on the Northern Fells in the Lake District. The first walk starts from Longlands (Grid Ref NY 267 359) and follows the path, which at first follows Longlands Beck. The path continues up to Trusmadoor when the route turns right and climbs up to the first fell of the day, Great Cockup. From Great Cockup the route heads back down to Trusmadoor and up the other side to Meal Fell. From Meal Fell we follow the clear path up to Great Sca Fell and then turn right up to the highest fell of the day Knott (710m) There is some boggy ground between Great Sca Fell & Knott. From Knott we retrace our steps back to Great Sca Fell and continue straight on to Little Sca Fell and then on to Brae Fell. We then follow the clear path over to Longlands Fell before heading down to the parking area at Longlands.
We then decide to drive the short distance over to Binsey and head up to our 7th Wainwright Fell of the day. The path up to Binsey is clear to follow and heads straight up the fell side.
Total Distance for the two walks is 10 miles.

Love the pragmatic, reasoned approach you take Eddie. Inspirational. All credit to you.

@eddiecaisley5746 Год назад

Hi Michael. Thanks for the positive feedback, it is really appreciated. It is comments like yours which gives me the motivation to continue making the videos. It is not easy trying to gauge what people will watch, so comments like this are a big help. Thanks again. Take care. Cheers. Eddie.

Wow Eddie! Seven Wainwright's in one day well done to Carol and yourself. I've never been to any of these fells before so was good to watch. Keep on smiling. David

@eddiecaisley5746 2 года назад

Thanks David. It was another nice walk in good weather, although a bit of a cold wind. A nice quiet part of the Lakes. Thanks again for watching and commenting, it is always appreciated. Take care. Cheers. Eddie.

Great video and hike. Eddie, and great achievement doing 7 wainwrights in one day. Both you and Carol have got great energy and fitness and you make it all look so effortless. Nice to see a part of the Lakes that not too many go to and to bump into one of your many fans. Loved all the blue sky photos, it looked like summer but all those coats you were wearing meant it was cool enough. Looking forward to the next one, regards, Ashley

@eddiecaisley5746 2 года назад

Thanks Ashley. It was a great walk in great weather, but a really cold wind, so it was good to have our coffee in the shelter on Meal Fell. It was good to bump in to Vince and have a chat with someone who watches the videos. The fells in this area are a really nice part of the Lakes away from the crowds. Thanks for watching & commenting Ashley, it is appreciated. Take care. Cheers. Eddie.

Hi Eddie and Carol. Thanks so much for another fabulous video. We did this today, but in reverse, [like your man Vince there], and out of respect for Mark’s Dad’s advice. This took us to 98/214. Your video really helped us to orient ourselves and to become familiar with the route and we had a really lovely walk today. Hope to see you out there sometime! Happy hiking, and keep these wonderful videos coming. All the best, Yvette and Mark

@eddiecaisley5746 2 года назад

Hi Yvette, thanks. Pleased you had a good day and the video was of some help. It is a really nice walk in a more quieter part of the Lakes. You are nearly at the half way point in your Wainwright adventure, keep it going! You never know our paths may cross with you and Mark. Thanks again for your kind comments. Take care & Best Wishes from Carol & Myself

@ruskinyruskiny1611 2 года назад

Made sterile and denuded by over and unprofitable sheep farming. There should be thousands of native deciduous trees here which would vastly improve it in all ways . The Green New Deal would keep local families in the area and rewild it.

@eddiecaisley5746 2 года назад

Thanks Ian. We really enjoyed this walk and it is a walk we would definitely do again, especially in "Caisley Weather" ha!

Great video as always Eddie. I did this walk last year and loved it. I got fantastic weather too :-)Was nice to re-live it through your video. I’m hoping to get down in April to put a few more Wainwrights in the bag. Might see you around the hills. Thanks for posting mate.

@eddiecaisley5746 2 года назад

Thanks Alan. It is a great walk and the weather made it even better. We would definitely do this walk again. Fingers crossed the weather is good for you in April, if it is, we will be on the fells somewhere and might bump into you. Thanks again for watching Alan, it is appreciated. Take care. Cheers. Eddie

@stubloggs6358 2 года назад

Not an area I am familiar with(well I am now lol).......that summit(great-cock-up) has a great plateau to pich a tent, good views as well. Yep that was a good shelter in windy conditions(meal fell)......in fact they all had plenty of flat areas for a pitch.....cracking footage of the aircraft.........another excellent video Eddie as usual helpful narration throughout.......ATB.....Stu...👍.

@eddiecaisley5746 2 года назад

Hi Stu. Thanks. It was a cracking day and the first time we have been on those fells. It was a great walk and definitely one we will do again. You are right about the camping spots, plenty to pick from throughout the walk. Stroke of luck when the aircraft flew right in front of us, I usually miss them by the time I get the camera sorted! thanks again for watching & commenting, it is always appreciated. Take care. Cheers. Eddie.

@peterh8970 2 года назад

Superb video again Eddie. 7 fells in 10 miles is pretty good going! Hope you enjoyed your coffee up at the shelter. Great views of Skiddaw, I've never seen it from that side before. Hoping to get up there in a bit later in the year. All the best.

@eddiecaisley5746 2 года назад

Thanks Peter. We had a great day and really enjoyed this walk. We certainly did enjoy our coffee in the shelter on Meal Fell. There was a cold wind and the shelter was doing a great job keeping the wind off us. A great walk made even better by the weather. keep an eye out for us on the fells if you do get up later in the year! Thanks again for watching & commenting, it is appreciated. Take care. Cheers.

Great video must say you always get the weather love to do that hike but cant find a route anywhere any chance you can send the route over please

@eddiecaisley5746 Год назад

Hi, thanks. It is a great walk with some really nice views along the route. There is a map at the start of the video. You could take a screen shot of this and use it to follow the route. If this is no good, let me know your email address and I could send a copy of the map over. Apologies for the late reply. Thanks for watching & commenting, it is appreciated. Take care. Cheers.

@AlanMETALMAN 2 года назад

Mrs Metalman just came up and asked why I kept laughing all the time, I said it's Eddie, saying Great Cockup all the time, every time he says it I am in hysterics, I don't know how Carol kept a straight face lol! To be fair I have never done any of these Fells before or even heard of some of them but it did look a cracking walk mind and even better when you are mobbed by fans. Looked real nice walking and although a bit on the chilly side, for the time of year, still great weather. I am always hearing planes but can never see them so that was a good spot mind. Was the car park just a pull off or a proper parking place, before you went to Binsey? Great days walking, cheers Alan

@eddiecaisley5746 2 года назад

Ha, you're right Alan, what a name, who named these fells eh! If you notice I didn't put the name of the fell on the screen when Carol was standing next to the tiny cairn on Great Cock Up, ha! It was a cracking walk with no scrambling and fairly easy to follow paths, once we got started. I am like yourself with the planes, I usually miss them, but managed to capture this one for a change. It was good to meet and chat with Vince, who watches the videos. The car parking at Longlands for the first walk is just a pull off at the side of the road beside the bridge, room for around 6 cars. It was similar at the bottom of Binsey, parking at the side of the road, room for 6 or 7 cars . Thanks for watching & commenting Alan, it is appreciated. ( Happy Anniversary to you both, hope you enjoyed Scarborough & Whitby) Cheers. Eddie.

@snakebite69 2 года назад

Hi Eddie, Just looking for some advise from yourself in regard to the Cheviot Hills please. I live in Washington tandw, so.a trip to the Cheviots isn't far. However i'm concerned about Otterburn firing range and whether i have to follow their schedule of non firing to walk the Cheviots.I cant find any guidance information on the internet. Any advise would be much appreciated Eddie many thanks in advance. Atb Andy H

@eddiecaisley5746 2 года назад

Hi Andy, you can avoid the military firing ranges without any issues by walking from the Breamish Valley, College Valley & Harthope Valley into the Cheviots. I remember the red flags marking the firing range on the left of the Coquet Valley, but the walk up to Windy Gyle was on the right, so away from the ranges. Hope this helps. Cheers. Eddie.

I see an area denuded by the unprofitable and unnecessary activity of sheep farming. The way to get local families staying in the area and indeed returning to the area is the "Green New Deal". Rewild countryside Britain ASAP. Thanks fro the video. Excellent as always.♥
