Wild Camping in Ireland | Melmore Head | Donegal

Good morning and a happy new year Gerry, love and hugs to you and you family. All the best for 2022! Just getting ready to go to Kat's for a newyears day roast. Going to watch this and plant the seeds of adventure for a cracking and adventure filled new year. Your footage and areas you explore are always exquisite! Relaxing and peaceful way to start our day, thank you 👌 catch you soon, Ceri and Kat ⛰❤☕🧭🗺

Loving these beaches wow ⛺ ⛱ the crashing of the waves with the mountains on the horizon, stunning! 🥰 🌊 ⛰

Ah that cave was so cool! Always like looking out from the back of a cave, like how we would imagine being in the belly of a beast! 🐉 🐲

Love a curry, nice little treat Gerry! 🍛 ❤ 😍

Wow that monring wind Gerry, jeeze! Lucky your hat stayed on lol 😆 🌬🌪👍 thanks for taking us along, another fab video, glad the farmer was helpful, all the best for 2022, Ceri and Kat ☕ 🏆 🗺 🧭

Lovely Day 1 but by God that weather sure changed! The wind on the lough, blowing the waves and spray was mental 😱

Nice video Gerry, you will have to return soon to the Nephin begs in Mayo where the chances of seeing anyone at all is very small !.

What a difference a day makes . Beautiful place Gerry , those secluded beaches with the sun shining looked perfect .
Was looking at those Adventure Food meals , I'll maybe give the chicken curry a go but saying that I wasn't sure what the verdict was going to be there was a bit of a long pause after the second spoon full 🧐
Gerry wishing you a adventurous and peaceful 2022 🙏

Good to see you treating yourself for your wild camping Christmas dinner Gerry - you’re definitely worth it!! 😎 You did well on the Crimbo pressies too, nicely set up for 2022! I treated myself to some down booties from China for £20 which are a lovely treat for the cold weather - it’s been so mild though to date in fairness. Melmore Head looks a lovely coastline to walk and camp and great to see those wild crashing powerful waves! Super you got a decent weather window for your first day - some lovely shots throughout 👍 Wishing you the best for the coming year Gerry and your future adventures!!

Nice wild camp, enjoyed the video. Those Christmas socks looked great 👍

Wow Gerry that wild was so so strong. Fair play to the farming. What a savage spot. All those beaches. Donegal is amazing. What camera you shout with Gerry?

Wonderful part of the world Gerry. We loved our explorations on the Inishowen peninsula. We would love to return. There are chough birds around on that coastline. ( black crow family birds with a red beak and red feet ) We had a super day here too. Wow it's well those high winds didn't arrive a bit earlier when you were asleep! Yes I expect walkers/day trippers can be a real pain for local farmers who are concerned about what they might leave behind for their livestock to get hurt on. Not nice weather at the end Gerry!

Brilliant location mate. It's good you got the best of the weather on the first day. Thanks for sharing atb James

Fantastic video, have to visit one of the days, Thanks

Gerry, what an absolute pleasure your videos are! Especially when you feature Donegal, my "special place" What a difference a day can make, fierce conditions on the morning of the second day. Your mention of the local farmer was well done and rightly respectful.
Thank you for starting off 2022 so nicely. Your channel and it's contents are a special treat. Long may you wander. Wishing you health and happiness

Gerry, another great video. Amazing weather too. Wonderful to see the progression over the length of the video. So, do you recommend the curry?

Great wild camp and video Gerry really enjoyed that, adventure food 😲 whatever next? lol such a change in weather conditions your timing was super 👌

Another great video yet again, and those beaches are just spectacular!!! Wow, what incredible wind to roll in like that. It all ended well though, and thanks to the landowner. Murder Hole beach has been on my bucket list for a long long time now! Beautiful!

No shortage of socks now Gerry. That Santa is some boy🎅🏻. A big change in the weather overnight 💨. I loved the footage of the wind ripping across the lough. Also impressed with your culinary change. Chicken curry from a bag, very nice. I must give Melmore Head a wee visit soon. Thanks for sharing Gerry.

Big like 45 thank you so much you sharing the beautiful video it's awesome place magnificent views
Ireland is wonderful country
Happy New Year 2022

Love it Gerry, thought you were going to pull out a Turkey and Ham dinner 😀. Love those wild days.

The Chicken Curry is pretty nice for what it is. I have a few packets of boil in the bag ready to go for the coming weeks too.

Love these vids. Wish you could do them weekly 😀.
Hoping for a snowy mourne camp myself within the next two weeks 🤞,

Brilliant video again Gerry.....boy what a turn around in the weather

Great video Gerry, loved all the costal shots especially as the light started to go, cracking images. That beach that you could'nt get aross, I though you might have went for a wee paddle! It end up a pretty rought day 2 with the high winds. Not so pleasant to be caught out in those conditions, however its comforting to see these condition sitting a home. Trust you had a great Christmas and will have a peaceful New Year.

AMAZING VIDEO SHARING!!👋✔🔔😊💚

That wind was something else. You did right by sticking to the lower ground and fair play to the farmer for helping you out. I can understand why he may have not been so happy to see you on his land but you had a genuine reason. I may get myself the book you used, they are some really nice routes you are exploring. The meal looked good but I couldn't justify the money 😄 All the best Gerry and again happy new year 👍

Hello Walking & Wild Camping In Ireland! Happy New Year! Thanks for the nice video! It's interesting! Thank you for sharing! Best regards in the future!

The coast beaches of Ireland are breath-taking! As much as I love the mountains, I love the coast! So many views, and the sounds of the crashing waves. Amazing rocks and beautiful sandy beaches. Impressive change of weather and wind the next morning!! Glad you got back ok! :) Like!!

Very enjoyable video indeed, we do so love a coastal getaway

Oh those beaches are beautiful. I really miss the sound of waves crashing. Lovely video

Superb weather window, you could be forgiven for thinking it was Spring or early Summer !! Always love the sound of the sea, so relaxing , Such a beautiful place to coast along, . Donegal and Kerry are certainly hard to choose from ,I dont think I could pick one over the other. Belated New years wishes, and looking forward to your adventures in 22. ATVB Colin

Good camping !

What a lovely video,and channel.Hope you have a lovely 2022 and stay safe debs xx..ps commented twice bots removed them

My favourite part of Donegal. From Lough Salt down to the tip you have all you can ask for in terms of habitat, history and scenery.

Standard Issue that the one time you need to drop down off the hills it's into THAT FIELD! 😂 any other of the 9 million fields in Donegal and you would have been fine, though, yep, absolutely sympathise with that particular issue, I wouldn't want the instaGram masses tramping over my livestock either. Especially when the beach is so dangerous, the rip currrent outta it must be massive.

!No Noodles! Mac n Cheese, just how I like it is one of my highlights when away. I keep thinking those camping meals might be better, then catch myself on 😂

Congratulations on the sock hoard, my Bridgedale collection is a source of pride (and toasty toes) I wish they made long-johns and thermal tops too.

Thanks again for another epic vid 🤙 (favourite shot: the windy lough from water level, was awesome)

Super movie, great views, thanks for sharing. I really like watching new and interesting places. You have an interesting channel, so I'm staying and watching. Big like, stay connected. I’m a new subscriber

What a beautiful area of the world. We loved your walk across those empty beaches. They are stunning. Looked like the wind picked up the 2nd day. Lovely video 🍻

Nice walk around this beautiful coastline Melmore Head. Enjoyed watching.

Must try here looks class, how did u manage to get your tent up in the wind? :)

Where abouts did you park the car?

Great channel with great content Gerry, well done on sharing with us 👍

Amazing images of the field, rocks and the imensity of water. Like from Palma de Mallorca 👍

Very nice video my friend have wonderful day.

Yet another stunning video and equally stunning scenery Gerry, your videos have brought back the wonderful time we had in Donegal two yrs ago, albeit with the wifes elderly parents ! Roll on next year 😀

Beautiful Thanks for the Inspiration
