The Black Cullin is amazing and we had some great hikes this one really stood out. Glad you enjoyed the video.

Thanks for the info!

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

Glad you enjoyed.

Thanks again!

Klaus, respect for running a 1/2 marathon over those mountains I would have liked to hike that route but I was with photographers not hikers LOL. Yes Faroes is very dramatic both in landscape and weather. Make a resolution to book a return trip IMO you wouldn't regret it and if you want some location ideas hit me up.

Yep on a stick stuck in my camera bag, 360 cameras are very useful. Thanks for watching.

Thank you so much 😀

You got that right! but what an experience.

Hi thanks for so many questions I will try to answer them 1: The roofs are covered with grass for insulation its a traditional method. 2: The lighthouse is not open to the public you can't go inside. 3: The water on the right and left is the same height, its an optical illusion as the land on the left is a lot higher than the land on the right. 4: I generally don't have knee pain it all depends on the terrain and I'm getting older so some discomfort is expected, I have no special secrets I'm just careful when I walk to not injure myself I hope those answers help you, please take a look at my other Faroes videos and see if you have anymore questions.

@@ChrisNewham so sweet of you to give your viewers answers. 3. The junction between land and water is seen clearly on the right. The junction between land and water is not seen clearly on the left .......yes an optical illusion

Thank you very much!

Thanks and welcome

It sure was and you did amazing despite suffering from crippling "man flu"

Well I suggest you make the time and go do the bad step it was a great fun with amazing views, handy route for a day when the clouds are low.

@ChrisNewham I've just realised when I trekked the whole island in 2001 from the south thar we chose the route behind Marsco instead, in those days nobody was coming to Skye so we must have missed it on a map, there was certainly no KZbin lol

Thanks it was an amazing day.

Unfortunately I didn't get any good footage of the bothy I will try and do better next time ;-)

Thanks so much!

It was, Wales rarely disappoints!

Yes it was, I really enjoyed this hike.

Thanks, I think there must be a bit of Scots in us LOL plus we saw a guy who came the other way who told us it was only thigh deep so we actually did have an idea of what we were getting into. If I can find a few hours I will try and edit the footage I took here last year on a nice summers day the contrast is amazing and the stepping stones are a big tourist draw.

It wasn't too bad the fact it was wet meant more concentration was required, don't forget the camera angle is chosen to make most of the drama ;-)

No hate at all, thanks for the comment. The bad step is the name of the particular rock/section of the hike its on the map lots of rocks have names. What a climber would say is that the bad step section was the "crux" move ie it was the most difficult portion of the climb and typically if you can't complete the crux move you cant complete the climb although there is sometime an alternative route that bypasses the crux move.

Yes you have a point, but doing something difficult, pushing your limits and getting the heart rate and concentration up is part of the fun ;-)

Thanks I'm glad you liked the footage, yes if your not confident about something especially alone its worth not doing it, the mountains will still be there next time you get to Skye and perhaps you will be blessed with nice weather and can go do it. Remember the camera makes it look worse than it is, the hike was well worth the effort.

🤣 im just looking at this as i plan to stay at the bothy then camping by loch Coruisk so i will be carrying alll my camping stuff. seeing this vid im sure my backpack would make me swim next second...

but now i've looked again, i would be climbing it up not shimmimg down, much better option with 65l backpack! i may try this actually. also solo hiker here:)

Hey there, i would like so much to do this trail but this point Bad Step is horrible for me. Could I dodge somehow this part of the trail? 🙏🏻

@@marual69 there is a alt route so you dont have to go that way, Haze outdoors avoided it, if you look on his page and for the skye trail he shows you on a map the route he takes

Glad you enjoyed it

Thanks 👍

LOL not as much as the camera make it look, thanks for watching.

Thanks and welcome

It was a trip from Bella Jane boat trips at Elgol harbour.

Don't panic its just an effect from the camera angle that makes it look far worse than it is. If your a mountain hiker you will have no issues there are no technical sections or climbs its all mountain walking/hiking. Go do this route the views are amazing and you will be away from the crowds.

Glad you enjoyed it, it was an awesome day.
