What's Not To Hike

Welcome to my hiking and wild camping channel! My name is Martin, and I'm an avid outdoor enthusiast who loves exploring nature and sleeping under the stars.

I created this channel to share my adventures with you and inspire you to get outside and experience the beauty of the great outdoors for yourself. Whether you're an experienced hiker or just starting out, there's something here for everyone.

I believe that spending time in nature is one of the most rewarding experiences we can have as humans as it allows us to connect with ourselves and the world around us in a deep and meaningful way.

So if you're ready to lace up your boots and pack your backpack, join me on this journey as we explore the wonders of nature together and discover the true beauty of the great outdoors.

Remember - LEAVE NO TRACE!

What's Not To Hike

12 hours without electricity or any phone service yesterday felt like a short example of what the apocalypse will feel like. Many people panicking and confused. Others reaching for whatever tools and devices they could find to try and bring some light into their lives. Or like me, some went out for a walk until it was over, although it was almost midnight when the 'power' came back. I relied on some of my camping gear for a few hours and also tried to film a timelapse of the stars above my house, given that it was so dark, apart from the odd car headlights lighting everything up, but all the lights came back on an hour or so after i set the camera up. Until then I read a book by candlelight and felt grateful i am from a generation before mobile phones, because pretty much every person i saw who wasn't, looked lost. #blackout #lookout #copout #getout

What's Not To Hike

Hello happy campers! I'm hoping to be out hiking this coming Sunday but then I'm off to Ireland a few days later so not sure I'll have it edited before i go. (My crappy day job getting in the way of my happy life again) In the meantime, here's a picture of one of the many train tunnels that hug the coastline here, which i took while out on tonights power walk/arse dragging. Some lovely smells along there where the wild herbs grow. Rosemary. Tarragon and Lavender as well as some lovely flowers growing. Hope you're all managing to get out and all being well, I'll have a new video for you soon. (The next video will also have the winner of the head torch so if you've not entered that there's still time! ) Peace ✌🏻

What's Not To Hike

I decided to delete my last video. Wasn't happy with it and after watching it back, it didn't really say or really do what I wanted it to. I will make another one but in a better setting and different light conditions to try and portray what I was trying to do.

I'm off camping and hiking this weekend so I may be able to do something then.

Thanks.

Wow! The channel reached the 1500 Subscriber mark overnight!

Thank you everyone for your continued support.
Maybe also check out my latest video, where i visit an old abandoned house in the Catalan hills above my home, and a cup of tea does not go to plan.

Have a brilliant weekend and I hope you're out hiking or camping or just enjoying the early Spring.

Happy hiking!
