In July of 2021, my good friend Cheesebeard and I set off on our traverse of Iceland, from the North-West corner of Iceland hiking on foot all the way down to the South coast. This is video two in my hiking vlog from the trip. I hope you enjoy the journey.

6:10 Nailed it, man. Stellar vid. Keep on keeping on ...

[@phrayzar]

I'm glad you put the emotional bit in. I get those when I'm out there. It's always so cathartic and cleansing and real. Really lovely video. Cheers mate

[@hikesome]

Beautiful outdoor adventure! Such a great look and atmosphere. Can't wait to see the coming episodes and can't wait to hike there on my own feet. Have a wonderful week, Mario

[@milkymat]

was working during the premier, but glad I've caught up. That was great man

[@tommurphy6972]

Looks epic man,thanks for taking us along

[@oscarsundevall7281]

Very interrsting video! Thank you. Sorry about the shoe problem. I’ve learned the hard way that trail runners even in summer ain’t always right when you are so far north. It’s often soggy and moist, even experienced a snow storm once in june (!) in the middle of Sweden.

[@Nornin]

Last summer was so horrible, weather wise. I feel so bad for you guys and hope you have a chance to come back for a hike in better weather! If you plan to come back, you can send me a message and have a "friend" in Iceland :)

[@DaveGoodman1959]

Thank you for sharing your adventure it was a fantastic watch. Superb quality filming. Kind regards. ✌🍺

[@freeman.walking]

Thats was emotional and real. Respect bro.

[@hugogibson1370]

Amazing series! Do you have a trail map of where you went? it would be super cool to be able to see the joinery you guys went on:)

[@Asdzaan]

At 00:21 I think I would've just sat and witnessed the glacier for 10 minutes - anymore time might be too cold!

[@EmilyFlynn]

Great storytelling, very professional filming and editing, and such a beautiful trail! Didn’t know there was a thru hike like this in Iceland. Mad respect!

[@ervinslens]

Absolutely stunning and very beautiful sceneries. This kind of adventures I really like.

[@OldBenjaminKenobi]

This series should be called “PCT thru hiker expects similar experience in another country”

[@TylerCampbellOutdoors]

Another amazing video. Fantastic.

[@haydenmeadors38]

This is epic! I’ve been enjoying your content for awhile now, cheers!

[@rigbyUnbound]

beautifully put together video.. loving the series. i remember reading somewhere that the plastics in trail runners (probably all sports shoes) decomposes over time.. initially i thought this was salesmanship so we wouldn't hoard our favourites and always keep buying the lastest and greatest. i think you said yours were 3's which is quite a while a go now so maybe there's something to it.. but having the sides blow out that early is really annoying. these kind of (non-)trails are much tougher on shoes than the PCT /CDT as you will know. love the tattoos & look forward to the next

[@MaylesTrails]

Great series so far. Iceland is such an incredible place, can't wait to go back. Those Patagonia Terrebone joggers are the best hiking trousers!

[@MaylesTrails]

@@pieonthetrail Yeah, that would be a good addition. Hopefully Patagonia will upgrade them in the future

[@kevinharding1181]

Watching all your vlogs on Iceland. Great viewing. I couple of quick questions : I saw your gear vlog before you started and doubted I'd wear trail runners (always had mid-length boots none of which have never failed me and which I'll likely use for 6 weeks in the Icelandic Highlands next year) - would you wear something else (or a different brand) if starting again ? Also are those the GG Strap Pockets - large? And what was the camera rain cover Cheesebeard had on his camera (on a PD Capture Clip)? Cheers !

[@youssefmahrous5146]

The question is .. what route have you taken .. and what about the laws regarding camping and off road walking ?

[@timowillman2285]

Wow, jogger pants work well?

[@timowillman2285]

@@pieonthetrail yeah i like a lot off these too 🤸‍♀️

[@kaylow225]

Pain has no memory...

[@pieonthetrail]

Not sure I agree with that one

Cool I’ll check it out

[@Bibs123]

@@pieonthetrail That will obviously be easy for you dude! I have learned so much from you and IBTAT. I'm planning a thru hike attempt with my two kids in 2024. We can't make the work schedules work until then. All TV sucks, so I spend a good deal of time watching you guys and learning!
