In this video, I am out on the Norfolk Broads in my cedar strip canoe to explore Hickling Broad and spend an overnight wild camp in my hooped bivvy. The weather was not in my favour during the paddle, with a strong head wind and snow showers, but arriving at camp, I set up a tarp and canoe shelter to protect me from the weather.

A chilly, but very relaxed camp with a warming fire, good food and a few nice beers. The morning brought a sharp frost and the most stunning sunrise to wake up to, set against the calm mirror-like water.

I hope you enjoy the video.

Thanks for watching.
