This was Hard! Wild Camping The Paps of Jura

[@ScotlandsMountains]

Thanks for all the wonderful comments , I often get asked about what gear I use on the longer treks - here's a video with my back packing gear list which may (or may not !) be of interest Gearlist - kzbin.info/www/bejne/nKCvoHt3obODmLssi=5DaqVkU_iOrz18Kv Thanks for watching Murray

[@Wehadonebutwheelfelloff]

I lived on Jura in 2019, the paps are one of the finest day walks in Scotland. I did them all in the dark also. A magical place. The consistency and quality of your videos is outstanding. Cheers.

[@WalkWithWallace]

Loved Jura and I'm looking forward to seeing this on the bus home tonight.

[@ScotlandsMountains]

Cheers Robin - enjoyed you video on the paps of Jura from a few years back too 👍👍

[@WalkWithWallace]

​@@ScotlandsMountains good stuff Muzza, looks like you camped a bit further round than us. Jura is the biz. 👌🏼

[@keithmathieson-x4f]

That was quite an expedition, one of your best IMHO. Leaving the pack at the bealach is not cheating its common sense, the challenge is finding it again.

[@andrewkingdom]

Fantastic I went last September but took my car travelling up from south wales is a fair way but then a long ferry crossing to Islay then we drove across that island to catch yet another ferry to get to Jura no wonder the Jura distillery says it’s easier to get to Peru than Jura 😆 anyway we stayed at the hotel at Craig house which was fantastic did the paps which were awesome I nearly stepped on a large adder snake 😮 but what a trip your right that was Arran and Northern Ireland you could see wonderful hills I will be back as the northern half of Jura looks interesting on the map with two remote bothies up there thanks for sharing very good inspiration to get back there again cheers

[@ScotlandsMountains]

Sounds like you had a great trip to Jura too Andrew. The other parts of Jura do look interesting- I was going to drop off the west side to head back but all my procrastination meant I ran out of time for that ! Thanks for watching ATB Murray

[@andrewkingdom]

@@ScotlandsMountains cheers keep videos coming they are so enjoyable

[@grahamhaines9931]

There is something timeless about going out to these smaller islands. I visited Jura on a bikepacking trip back before the millennium. I’d already been on Arran and done some hills there, then cycled to Lochranza to catch a ferry, another short ride across the peninsula and another ferry to Islay. The ferry should have docked into Port Askaig, but the narrow channel was too rough so I was deposited at Port Ellen instead. My accommodation was over at Port Askaig so I ended up pedalling across in a bit of a headwind. Apparently Islay is known for the winds! The next day I caught a small ferry boat over to Jura, pedalled in as far as could and then did the “Paps” from that side. I had lovely clear weather. Thanks for sharing Murray!

[@ScotlandsMountains]

I agree - visits to the Scottish islands are special- love going to them (any of them tbh - special places :) Thanks for watching ATB Murray

[@margotmaule3864]

Thankyou Murray for yet another wonderful video. We watch you slog it out with the funniest text trying to cope with your accent, from Ballarat, Australia. I’m from Melbourne and met my Scottish Alistair when travelling: kids born in Inverness, Elgin and Forres… then to Australia in ‘87, now retired in Ballarat. We’ll return to visit family and check out the Western Isles in ‘24. Your delightful videos show us how one COULD do it…. However, it’ll be golf courses for Alistair and chasing sheep fleeces and designers for me. You give us so much joy!

[@Jonathan-u9r5y]

Brought back memories of these wonderful mountains which have a special place in my heart after family holidays on islay .. glad you had good weather. Well remember the scree of the Sacred Pap. My abiding memory is of the Pap of the Sound which was the first Pap I climbed as a boy

Good effort with all that weight, awesome trip ! I did those hills from the west in April 2022 with a much lighter rucksack, had a summit camp on Sgurr na Lapaich, my first summit camp after 30+ years in the hill, no Northern Lights but I did get an Inversion, thanks for taking us along and carrying all that camera equipment !

[@islaymcilraith8838]

Brings back many fond memories of when my family, along with my cousin Douglas decided to tackle Beinn an Oìr in 2018. My sister is named after the Isle of Jura and each time we visit Islay to see family we always take a day to go and visit my sister island. My cousin booked a later ferry crossing back from the Jura to Islay so we had the entire day to take our time and summit the mountain. It was a balmy 30 degree July day, not a cloud in the sky, was an absolute glorious day to be on the mountain. We then topped it off with a visit to the Jura Hotel for a much earned meal and a wee dram of whisky. It was an adventure we won't soon forget! Yet another great video Murry! Makes me long for a return to the hebrides

[@ScotlandsMountains]

[@daykz69]

Amazing as ever

[@davideaton6915]

top man Murray. loved it!

[@natalieminnis]

Kudos for climbing those hills with a tent on your back. They are certainly tough. I had a spectacularly bad off day when I climbed these last summer, which was a shame, as I often see them from my living room in Ayrshire and had been planning the trip for ages! However I spent two nights on Jura with friends, and it is such a lovely friendly island so I'll definitely be back for another go, maybe out of midge season. I remember the ground between Beinn Chaolais and Lochan t-Siob being energy-sappingly boggy and tussocky so going over that extra hill may have actually saved you a bit of time and energy as well as affording spectacular views.

[@ScotlandsMountains]

Hope you can go back and have a better day - wonderful mountains - I think I’ll be back to explore a bit further :) Thanks for watching ATB Murray

Hi Murray, they say "great minds think alike" just got back from backpacking the whole west coast of Jura - S to N, 8 days including a rest day ( something I have always wanted to do, just been across to certain parts in the past. ) then today saw your notification ! Fine weather over there, even the bogs were fairly dry ! Great ferry from Tayvallich. Wanted to do the Paps, but too tired after trek - so really enjoyed your video.

[@ScotlandsMountains]

That sounds awesome - there doesn’t seem to be too much over on that side - a wild a remote part of the country - hope you had a great time on Jura 👍👍

[@mikebelk5455]

Toughest walk in the UK imo, and I’ve climbed over 500 different hills in Scotland. Thanks for the great video, brought back great (and some not so great !) memories for me

Great remote feel Murray, didnt meet many people I expect. Looked particularly hard won hills. Looks amazing. I used to take school kids expeditioning round the north coast of Jura, staying in the coastal caves but never did the hills. Thankyou for sharing

Only ever done one Pap but I was fit then ! The west coast of the northern end of Jura is hard but beautiful walking. The whisky is good too, my favourite is called 'The Paps'

It's funny how you ended up in Jura climbing the Paps because I was in Campbeltown two weeks ago on holiday and went to Machrihanish and looked over to the Paps wondering if these were Corbett's! Glad you done a video on these as I've always wondered what these were like. Cracking video as always Murray.

[@Whisky_Four-Three]

Hi Murry, do viewers pass comment in a negative way about the weather when it comes in. I often wonder as you mention the weather when it closes in. I'd understand wanting to share the views when the weather is clear as it's pure magic. For me I'm truly grateful that you get out there rain or sun. I think your videos are awesome. Your videos are always accurate and shows really well the need for good clothing, skills, and determination to get out of there. For the record i love the beautiful views but i also really love the parts of your video when your grinding out the Kms in the rain and wind, slogging up a hill or along the glen. Video can never fully capture the awesome majesty of the hills but when the weathers in it feels more personal watching you wrapped up in the wet weather gear with the mist and or rain Swerling around you battling on not sure if you will be rewarded by clear views. What I've gone a long way around saying is your vids are great rain or shine. Cheers

[@ScotlandsMountains]

Hi - don’t get any complaints on the weather - think most people realise the mountain weather in Scotland can’t always be nice :) in fact the videos where the weather is bad usually get more views than the good weather videos !

Stunning Murray, the mountains look so peaceful and isolated, a walkers dream :-) I suspect you where right about Northern Ireland, probably the Antrim coast you could see. Just wondering if you have ever walked in the Outer Hebrides? I was on Harris last year on a family holiday and the hills looked like they would be great for a walking trip.

Nice video there. Your production is excellent, must take a lot of time. Next visit to Jura May I suggest a wild walk along the west side and around LochTarbet. Great isolation, a bothy, wildlife galore, interesting caves, and ticks. It would be a. great video? Certainly very isolated.
