The rarely seen unicorn: a 14 year old smiling while on a family vacation! Glad you all had fun in the LR.

😃👍 He was a true champ🙋‍♀️ Vera

[@d1sc0f1sh5]

What a nice scenery! I really enjoyed entire 32 minutes journey with you guys. Thank you:-)

[@Vera_and_Christian]

Thank you 😃👍🙋‍♀️ Vera

[@justinsmith6296]

Looks like a lot of fun, it nice to see a landy being used properly 👍

[@13harward]

Always SO impressed with Vera's levels of fitness!!! All through this small series of your Alps holiday, she's always cycling and running in this very steep landscape! 🙌🙌🙌🙌 Also VERY impressed with Philips save when his bike slid and he saved it with the foot dab. 🙌 What an absolutely magical holiday and beautiful memories for you all. Thank you so much for sharing. (Yes, i realise I'm about 2yrs late to the party, but I've watched all your current stuff, so I'm making my way through the back catalogue).

[@Vera_and_Christian]

😅👌👍🙏🙋‍♀️

[@johnnicholls5815]

I enjoyed your video it bought back memories of the many times we have been in the Alps and the Pyrenees the first time is about 27 years ago in our 300 Tdi then in our TD5 and our Discovery 3 I had from 2008 always towing a 8 m twin axel caravan. In Spain in the Pyrenees we found ourselves on a single track road with the caravan on for 45 Km with no where to turn around but luck was on my side as we did not meet another vehicle, on the hairpin bends I was watching the caravan wheels almost going off the road. That was the best 45 Km I have ever driven in my life. Thank you for all your videos. John in England

[@Vera_and_Christian]

Sounds like a awesome trip. These roads are rare today. We traveled in the Pyrenees 3x before our KZbin times. Christian

[@grahambrown3718]

Is Vera Wonder Woman. I was sweating just watching them cycling up the mountains. Great family adventure 😊

[@daracus1202]

You are very fit to climb those big boulders, as for your mirror, I knocked the mirror clean off including it's mount on a dry stone wall on my Range Rover as I turned a corner at speed. Enjoy the rest of your holiday, best wishes from the UK.

[@grahameroberts8109]

A fabulous bit of videography. Most entertaining and humour is. Vera never stopped smiling and Philipp cycled like someone on the T de F. Amazing roads and views. Thanks. 👍🏻🙏🏽😷🦘

[@phreeze83]

omg those motorcyclists have balls of steel... nice journey, i enjoyed it

[@bobrose7900]

What a great video! Thoroughly enjoyable and breathtaking! I think Vera was a mountain goat in another life! Well done.

[@johnhammond9174]

Fantastic that’s what it’s all about getting up in the hills enjoying the views next year I’m doing the Scottish NC 500 then the year after I wish to do the full paralyse from Italy to France so I hope to have a picnic at the same spot as you did😁🇬🇧👍

[@johnbradley9711]

What a wonderful trip. The Liguri ridge road was absolutely stunning! Thanks for sharing your adventure. Looks like you are big steak fans when camping - Christian was even thinking of burgers whenever he saw cows!

[@Vera_and_Christian]

😅👍🙋‍♀️ Vera

[@Guid0tube]

What an awesome trip! Loved watching your video!

[@Skagitrover]

What a wonderful trip! We are in day 7 of or trip the the Cascade and Selkirk Mountains of the Northwest United States. Had to use Rock Crawl mode and low range to get up to several spots. Vera you are a superwoman riding with your boy in the alps. Bravo! Bob & Jill

[@Vera_and_Christian]

Thank you, I saw the pictures you emailes me, just incredible. We traveled in the Cascades also extensively, did a lot hiking and mountain biking there. 😃👍🙋‍♀️ Vera

[@happyhermit2022]

That was awesome..loving your channel....its great 👍

[@mcoppock214]

That was truly amazing, the vistas...wow.But the roads were quite scary. Well done on the bikes as well. That bolder field was steep. Thank you for sharing.

[@ralphcooling7583]

Hi there Christian vera and Philip it looks like you had a fantastic time in the Alps you are so lucky being that close to beautiful countryside. Looking forward to seeing you next video take care. Ralph

[@Vera_and_Christian]

We travel about 8 hours to the Western Alps from our house. We can only manage that trip once a year unfortunately. But we do know how lucky we are. 😃🙋‍♀️ Vera

[@paulmcgee1867]

Hope the water didn’t come from a tank on the roof with three dead pigeons 😂. Great road, scenery and music 🎉

[@Vera_and_Christian]

😂😂😂🏆

[@n_mad]

Amazing scenery and incredible camping spot you guys had there. Very different scenery to what we have here in Australia. The roads you drove on scared me a little bit though 😂

[@user-yv8kd2jo2x]

Yeah can you get back in the car so I can move forward 😄 Great new spin on the channel 👍

[@petery3523]

Thanks for taking us along on your vacation in the alps, the scenery was absolutely spectacular. Your campsite at the top of the border was breathtaking, I really enjoyed this video👌

[@fearnsey8800]

What a campsite

[@alexandersunter4899]

Great to watch. Last time I was in the alps was 45 years age. Grimsel and Furka pass. This brings back memories

[@Vera_and_Christian]

I am assuming that a lot has changed since then. 😅👍🙋‍♀️ Vera

[@katlegomohlala6655]

Always great to watch this. 👏🏾👏🏾

[@g19anson]

Some great views and well done on all that cycling

[@sjeeke4671]

We were at about the same time in the Alps as you were doing the Hannibal Route....with our D3

[@ncfatcyclist]

Just beautiful .

[@klauswerner2900]

Nice Video, thank you that you share your Videos and Ideas. P.s. last minutes Felsenmeer is really nice.

[@Vera_and_Christian]

You have been there, looking at your name.We love it there, it's 15 min from our house.😅👍 We have a scene of Worms in one of our Videos. It's our back-up train station, when the train from Bensheim to Mannheim is delayed or canceled.🙋‍♀️Vera

[@klauswerner2900]

Hello Vera, we love the Felsenmeer too, and we are often here. We are also often in Odenwald and enjoy the Nature.

[@bluemask32]

Yet another amazing video. Looks like you Three had a great time. Just fantastic.

[@nutrunner5442]

Thank you for taking us all on holiday with you amazing scenery really enjoyed the time

[@anx1]

What a great adventure and doing it in style 😄👌

[@alexandrepeddro]

wow, amazing, even i participated in this adventure of yours, thank you so much for posting

[@ProducerCliff]

That was such a nice video to watch. The climb up the rocky glacier (I presume) looked hard and I kept thinking Why? But then Vera said there was a hut selling hot sausages and then it all made sense!! When I was (I think) living near Celle I bought a new Vitara soft top and drove down through Germany and through into Italy all the way down to the south. One Italian guy said the Vitara looked like a white shoe it was so small. When I got back to Celle I traded it in straight away for a new Nissan Patrol because I was going to Glastonbury Festival and I could sleep in the Patrol. (I was between Land Rover products at the time).

[@TheDaf95xf]

Evening Vera and Christian 👍🏻 What a lovely video of your mountain 🏔 trekking in the LR 🤣 Looks like Vera makes some good grub for you both 😋 Not a fixing video but excellent all the same guys 👍🏻 Take care until the fantastic LR time video cheers Stevie 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 😍

Yes sometimes we actually want to use the Disco for what it's intented to be used for 😅. And we were prepared to handle any breakdown on the trail, but it worked just fine. 😃🙋‍♀️ Vera

[@alexshapley8331]

Beautiful - and well done for successfully navigating a scary road and that very steep boulder field.

@@Vera_and_Christian it's all about the places you get to explore rather then the 4wding part, And that looks like one of the most amazing places to visit, made Kerry and myself jealous that's for sure 😅🤩

[@johnwillett4086]

Great video, loved it. It really mankes me want to visit those areas. Covid permitting we hope to cross Europe in my X-trail (Mk.II 4x4, not the new crossover rubbish) in the next few weeks as my wife has not seen her mother in two years (we are in the UK and my wife is from Central Europe) and I hope to be able to drive some of the mountain roads in the western Carpathians (Fatras, Matras, etc.).

Great video 👍 amazing routes

[@frglee]

Thank you for sharing your lovely family holiday with us. Fantastic scenery! Your LR eating up the trackways... The nearest I ever got to doing this was taking a BMW K75 motorbike over the old Splugen Pass from Italy to Switzerland about 30 years back. At least that had a tarmac road, but it was still quite adventurous for me. The poor bike was coughing from the altitude, I had no idea how to adjust it!

[@Vera_and_Christian]

👍 I'll try. We are actually old fashioned when it comes to navigation. Our Roadbook gives us the town and intersection where the entrance to the pass is, and then it's all by description. I will put a summary of all the passes with entrance in the community section soon.They are all very famous under European offroaders and easily to locate. 🙋‍♀️ Vera

[@MrSidestick72]

Nice video, but i have a tip for Christian... When in Low gear, if you select gravel-grass-snow on Terrain Response, the disco will ride smoother due to opening of the pneumatic crosslink valves... looking at you instrument panel, if you can read the external temperature it means that no special program of TR is selected :-))
