Silent Hiking the Isle of Skye, Scotland

[@HarmenHoek]

This one was a tough one to make! The weather was the worst I've ever had during a hike. Day after day soaked to the bone (with the head wind rain clothing only helped for the first few hours) hiking on the soggy moorlands was already difficult by itself. Not to mention making a film in these conditions: lenses fogging up, water in the camera, buttons not working anymore and salt on the sensor. But that is the reality of making films like these, nothing is scripted, you never know what shot might be around the corner, or what the weather will do. But that same unpredictability drives creativity and hopefully prevents me from getting into an easy-to-shoot-film-habit. But I hope I managed to show some of the real Scottish weather. (; The island isn't as remote and wild of a place I'm usually hiking. I found myself on trails and in sight of houses many times. This made me perhaps underestimate how harsh and tricky nature can be, even though I was within hours of civilization. The detour to Loch Coruisk (day 4) was especially tricky. I hoped to get to the bothi there. With 200 meters to go, completely soaked and cold, the creek I had to cross had turned into a wild river with no way to cross. It's a strange feeling I've only experienced once before in my life. That feeling of seeing your plans fall apart in front of you, a moment you're not willing to accept, because the alternative is ten times worse. The moment you honestly don't have a good answer for the question: 'what now?'. Luckily I brought my tent, which I managed to pitch despite the wind and rain, with only a dry down jacket, t-shirt and sleeping bag left. That night was the most uncomfortable night I've ever had in a tent. Rain and strong winds all night, with wind gusts pushing my tent down towards me. I didn't get any real sleep at all, kept awake by the rain and the fear my tent would rip. (Full story on harmenhoek.com) Anyway, another great adventure with some valuable lessons. On to the next one!

Another amazing video! I just did the Skye Trail at the end of May and had the same experience weather wise as you. It was still absolutely stunning though and I loved it. You’re right though about the underestimating the difficulty due to the lack of actual wilderness. I’m amazed you managed to get the footage you did - my camera stopped working three times before I just went to the iPhone due water ingress - even in a case and waterproof bag! Anyway - I’m a massive fan of your work and can’t wait to see where you get you next!

[@NeonsStyleHD]

Next time bring an Umbrella. Would've made that bit more enjoyable for you, and not weigh much. :) Thanks for the trip. LOnger videos are better. This was too short, but I can see why.

[@HarmenHoek]

@@alexarna Awesome! Did you do all stages? I'm surprised my camera held up so well. It sure was a struggle to keep rolling.

[@HarmenHoek]

@@NeonsStyleHD With those winds I wonder how long that umbrella would have lasted ... Perhaps a long poncho next time

[@bwmxyz]

Love your videos Harmen. Every time I watch I think "I'd love to do this" but luckily you add comments like this to bring me back to reality! Keep up the great work.

[@opotopo1]

Brilliant as ever. I once asked a local on Skye how much it rained. Their answer was - 'it only rains 80% of the time'. Awesome place.

[@VandrefalkTV]

This isn't just a "hiking video", this is a work of art. Jesus. Most channels can't compete with this in terms of cinematography and editing. Well done! Cheers from Norway

Haha, I like that shot too. Just a very very friendly local, who was just as, if not more, excited about doing this then me (;

[@jogofi4592]

I was going to do this trail with a friend in august but sadly he past away october last year, RIP Callum. I still want to do the journey but it might have to wait for now as i cant bare to do it without him. Thankyou for showing me this journey of yours, looks lovely

[@TonyHaydenOnTheTrail]

I am beyond impressed with the work you put into each shot. The anxiety and awe I feel as you disappear over a hilltop, knowing that you have to come back for the camera and climb that hill again, or skirt that cliff in the dark. The gratitude I feel is real. Your quality is unmatched and sets the highest standard for all of us. You are destined for great things, sir.

[@HarmenHoek]

Thanks a lot! Your comment put a smile on my face (:

Beautiful hike. Wretched weather. Thank you for enduring so we may enjoy this work of art.

[@WhislinGary]

I posted this video to my fb as one of the reasons I spend less and less time watching TV. You present all of the beauty of nature without the prattling dialogue telling me what to think about it. There certainly is a point of view, and yours is told in the choices and blends of pains-taking cinematography, music and ambient sound. Thank you. When I need a peaceful evening, I navigate to your site.

[@robertsmallwoodjr7640]

Hello from America! This has to be one of the greatest videos I've seen yet on YT. One of my biggest peeves with hiking/outdoor pursuit videos is the constant barrage of music or social media type attention seeking gestures, and other things that I feel strongly take away from the whole point of being out in it. The music was score music, that doesn't at all take away from what we're watching and actually very much adds to it. You let mother nature take a front seat, and let your expressions just flow. Brilliant and thank you for sharing! Oh, and what a beautiful, beautiful land...

[@denispudovkin6109]

it doesn’t call for an explanation when I say you have the best channel on KZbin. the graphics, shots, music on your videos are absolutely perfect.

Man, all your creations are masterpieces. I reached your KZbin channel, watching 7 days Alone in Yosemite Backcountry. Everything you do is incredible. I realize how difficult it is to make such films. A titanic, hard work, but with amazing results. Then I found your Instagram profile. Incredible, how beautifully you reproduce through photos and posts everything you do. Much appreciation.

Magnificent film Harmen! The contrasts you captured were stunning! Smooth and rough. Hostile and serene. The first campsite was fantastic! Exactly where I would want to wake up and brew a hot cup of joe. The time lapse of the clouds passing here were among your best images. Also loved to beauty of the town in the middle of the piece. I wanted to transition from my coffee to a glass of Talisker but it’s too early for that in my world! So glad I heard some pipes in there as well. Brilliant work, please keep them coming!

[@HarmenHoek]

Thank you Justin! I felt like I really had to show that little town, it was such a part of this hike, and it's a beautiful town indeed. Haha, well the only option then is to wait till tonight and watch it again with some Talisker. (; Thanks for the comment

Ondanks de zwaarte van de reis voor jou, was het voor mij als kijker weer enorm genieten. Tof dat de buschauffeur meewerkte en dat je blijkbaar nieuwe apparatuur (een rail?) hebt om vanaf een statief toch wat bewegend beeld te krijgen. Prachtige, ruige film!

Hi Harmen, I moved to Skye (I live in Broadford) from Glasgow over 3 years ago, it's a wondeful diverse island. You'll be glad you didn't start in June as you would've seen over 200 runners (myself included) running the Trotternisg Ridge Race! The week after that the Skye Half Marathon took place from Portree with 600 runners, a race you probably would've won :). I read your report (says you started in Feb 24th); the section from Portree to Sligachan is realy nice, theres Braes beach, Ben Tianavaig Hill and great views to Raasay. Unlucky with the weather at Loch Coriusk!! It's a beautiful area and one of my favourite walks on Skye, I always include Sgurr na Stri ( here's what it looks like on a good day with Bad Step bypass & easy river crossings - kzbin.info/www/bejne/gWWQiaaje95rj5Y ). Your videos are just awesome, can't wait to see this one go live :) I passed on your Drakensberg video to a couple of South Africans who live nearby. Try the Cape Wrath Trail if you visit Scotland again, it's more remote. Cheers, Paul.

[@HarmenHoek]

Wow, didn't know there was a race over the ridge! How cool. I might be back some day ... Ah, all I read about that section between Portree and Sligachan was that it was boring and a lot of vacation homes. Good to know, thanks! And great video! Amazing how different that area looks in good weather. That cyan ocean, the distant views ... Reason to come back to the Cuillins some day (my favorite part of the island)! Thanks for the comment! (:

[@dooterbang]

@@HarmenHoek Superb video! I notice lots of new shots/angles, they work well. The drone shot of your first camp is sensational.
