SECRET SCOTTISH WATER SLIDE! | Wild Camping in the SCOTTISH HIGHLANDS!

[@gilleslabhach7904]

I enjoyed this video, although it was really sad to see a Scottish guy say that he doesn't know what the ruins at 11:55 are. They're not "from a while ago", they're ruins of a village which was likely still inhabited in the 18th century but was "emptied" at the time of the Highland Clearances. At the time, it wouldn't have been "in the middle of nowhere" either - the land was full of such villages and at the very least there would be paths made by cattle drovers running alongside the stream. I know that your travel videos focus on pretty landscapes and hiking but it would be a nice touch if you mentioned at least some aspects of the really rich history of this land.

[@danielmontaigne1219]

Gille Slàbhach John Peebles book on the clearances whilst not definitive is pretty accessible

[@danielmontaigne1219]

John Prebble .....curse you autocorrect

[@speckofdust272]

Well said my thoughts exactly ... sadly memories can be short and history too easily forgotten ...

[@markmcmullan3351]

But there's pretty people having fun why would you want to bring up all that ?

[@DragoonGlass]

@@markmcmullan3351 i thought his post was fun, and informative.

[@ErinsHoose]

What a beautiful video! I got so excited seeing fellow Scottish youtuber Dan hahah - we're a rare breed! I also get so excited when I see people I watch on here visit Scotland

[@filthyanimal1067]

Aye,you are right. I live in the Highlands and I look right over the Moray firth. I have travelled the world for work but NOWHERE is as beautiful as home.

[@andrewwyllie3683]

Hi ive been looking for Dan Bell's KZbin channel and cant find anything, this is one of three videos with him in it i've found. His Facebook vlog account has gone aswell can anyone explain to me what happened does he just not vlog anymore or something.

[@thomascurrie7879]

I'm confused too! I was a big fan, that guy was awesome but every trace of him is seemingly gone from the internet, even his Instagram. Hope he's doing OK

[@DylanMercedes99]

Scotland is my favourite country, can't wait to go back! It is so BEAUTIFUL! I definitely recommend doing a Highland tour with Rabbies, and going in winter, the snow makes it even more magical!

[@ewenwalker7740]

There’s nae midges in the winter nae scratching

[@LizzieRoberta]

Does anyone know where Dan's KZbin channel went? I can't find it anywhere!

[@heynadine]

would YOU go Wild Camping? Also, sorry for the re-upload! :( Please leave a comment again if you watched earlier!

[@heynadine]

on an inner tube it wasn't bad!

[@musicinga]

I did watch this the first time ;) I would never go wild camping but I wouldn't go camping in general ;) And I still enjoyed the video very much both times ;) beautiful filming and editing ;)

[@ItsJustGilly]

I'm actually going wild camping upcoming summer! In Switzerland, no ides how it will turn out haha

[@mansoureh]

I love wild camping. In England you can't go for it but in Scotland is different

[@rodekil80]

Sorry about youtube glitching out for you. I hope your back heals up. There is your cool hat for a cool person. :D Of course, one day I hope to visit Scotland.

[@wildcampingadventures3040]

Why did Dan remove all his videos? So sad ☹️

[@ELGANDUZ]

Just came back to this video because I couldn't find his channel anymore, too bad, he made good ones

[@epayne6]

The Drones Esmerelda! THE DRONES!! Seriously, I love how you use that thing. The shot at 6:58 and the stuff shot at the waterslide place are amazing. Really shows off the countryside.

[@racheltaylor6578]

I’ve been there.It’s beautiful.I think I only saw two people in two days.

[@frankiestroud9774]

Which part of the highlands is that?

[@destinationunknown4959]

Hey Nadine. Do you know what happened to Dan Bell?

[@Cerobhal]

I’m Scottish and it makes me so happy when people get in touch with locals/do some research to experience what Scotland fully has to offer and not just the tourist attractions. Enjoy!

[@heynadine]

Yes! This was such an awesome secret spot, Dan knows so much! He camps all around Scotland! So it was really nice seeing from a local’s perspective!

[@Cerobhal]

Hey Nadine yeah I’ve followed him on Facebook for a wee while. Makes you want to get out more and explore where you’ve been brought up.

[@rebeccapaton5343]

If you ever go back to Scotland, I would highly recommend that you visit the Isle of Arran. It’s absolutely beautiful there with amazing scenery. You can camp in Glen Rosa which is only 2 miles away from Brodick (the main part of Arran). You can also climb goat fell which is stunning once you reach the top!😌

[@gb-jk7sx]

Glen Rosa midge are everywhere

[@panagiotakaldiri64]

Ohh Nadine! What a beautiful place! I went camping with a friend in Oman two years ago and it was the best experience ever! When you set your tent up, I almost cried. Great video!

[@heynadine]

[@panagiotakaldiri64]

Hey Nadine We were always on the road, no hotels, just me, Petros and a jeep! We spent 2 nights in the desert (Wahiba sands), during the day we were visiting villages and bathing in Wadis. Another 3 nights on the beach, watching huge turtles coming out of the water to leave their eggs and baby turtles searching for the sea. One night on the mountains (Jebel Shams) and one more by a river (Wadi Darbat). It was totally safe, people were great, it was my first time camping and I loved it!

[@weejobby6547]

Glad you guys enjoyed our highlands hope you come back and avoid the midges , you seem like such a fun bunch of people

[@EyeForSights]

Scotland is beautiful and that natural water slide looks fun, cool vid.

[@James-yy4vl]

Dan has his quirks lol. Great video, glad you could see some of my country! See you later, off to search for that water slide.

[@PipJim80]

You did well with the weather

[@robertharrigan6210]

Where abouts is this? Which glen/burn or river? Hoping to go this summer

[@LouisWarwickable]

Im from Scotland so glad you got to see it! hope Scotland treated you well!!!!

[@heynadine]

thanks!! Scotland did, it was awesome!

[@oliverbaranowski7154]

Same i am from Scotland

[@CamsCampbell]

I loved watching this! I'm gonna show it to my daughter and see if she'd be up for trying to find this location with me and doing a bit of camping. We live on the Isle of Arran in Scotland and have a few weeks of summer holiday left before school starts up again in mid August. I reckon she'll probably be up for it. Hope you enjoyed your time in Scotland. Big cheers to Dan for helping you out and showing you the secret slide!

[@ScotlandsMountains]

Looked great fun - enjoyed the video - also really enjoyed Dans Vlog too 👍

[@xavierdebeuf7681]

I am hiking {13 august)thru the south of france towards my new job in perpignan. I start 1/10 and it is a 800ml walk.

[@MrBlackbamboo]

great weather sure you were in Scotland

[@sokealifestyle7713]

What kind of camera do you used? It's a good video.

[@scottishalwaysdixie1638]

Us Scot,s are so blessed two have this beautiful Land that we call Home 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@andventurea]

A highly recommend going back and hike the west highland way! I started by doing a short section, fell in love with it and went back to do the whole thing. Absolutely loved it.

[@sophiebell5331]

where was this hike from again? what train and what town/ part of west highland way ? 🎉🎉

[@John-nl9rt]

The water slide looks awsom were in Scotland are yous would love to go visit there

[@kerrie6084]

I’ve never been camping but have a growing obsession with it recently. I guess a reaction to lockdown? So now I’m going to go for the first time as soon as it’s legal and warmer :)

[@TheHeckinAdventurousFamily]

Awh man looks like so much fun! Defs wanna hit this up soon!

[@druss69harad61]

In Scotland valleys are called Glens.

[@peacefull39]

im looking to go wild camping this summer in Scotland, however I will be driving from the south of England, im worried where to park my car! can I ask what you did with regards to your vehicle?

[@sapsantravel848]

[@HexHunter99]

Hey Nadine I sent you a letter. You'll have my update when you get home :)

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

Great video but next time you have to try the water slide. Looks like fun!! Hope your back feels better!

[@rosemarywhitley4494]

Beautiful scenery. It would be good to know more about the hike eg starting point, terrain, total distance covered etc but thank you for sharing your trip.

[@aaronfraser4427]

Anybody know where this is? My kids would love it. Thanks

[@macsnafu]

9:38 A-ha! They use an inner tube to ride the natural water slide. I was wondering about that...

[@lindamckay7158]

Where did Dan go? Miss his you tube channel

[@leonpennington1648]

That is THE most beautiful scenery I've ever seen of Scotland!!!!

[@GCStalker]

Bridge of Orchy. Short section of West highland way. So where is it?

[@bllxy8226]

Does your backpack go as checked luggage or carry on ?

[@mattofstie9298]

Checked luggage

[@MusicLeanne]

Recommend it is! I love Scotland! Lived in Glasgow for five monts and miss it a lot Thanks to you for showing me a part ons of my favourite countries ❤️

[@paulacannon3452]

So where is the waterfall??? I want to visit

[@GllobalCitizen]

Hello!!!! You are amazing!! Can you please share some tips on reaching more audience with vlogs! I’m a travel vlogger myself and it would help a lot! Thank you!!

[@mari.johnson]

Made me want to go camping! And visit Scotland. All the things! Nice video Nadine :)

[@katieohara7273]

I love traveling, and whenever I watch one of your videos, it motivates me to keep saving money and get out there in the world!

[@scottishwildwanderer8335]

Was at Bridge of Orchy yesterday and doing west highland way at end of the month

[@mattofstie9298]

how were the midges?

[@scottishwildwanderer8335]

Not too bad more clegs than anything we had a nice breeze keeping midges away

[@bentait5489]

Where is this?

[@ajadrew]

Stunning scenes...I'm half Scottish so maybe I should go there.

[@heynadine]

yes you should!!

[@ajadrew]

Has to be done..;-)

[@neilmac2022]

Is it loch Dochart or Dochard??

[@heynadine]

Loch Dochard 👍

Is the slide on loch dochard my kids would love this

[@nataliewixon8835]

Omg Nadine you're in Scotland! Scottish native right here! The waterslide looks amazing xx

[@toobydude41]

Didn't look like you attempted the water slide and I was going to ask why, but someone else did pose the question and you answered :) I hope the back is better soon Nadine. One thing is for damn sure..this video cannot be any better!!! Good grief does Scotland ever run out of stunning scenery?? I am running out of words to describe it!!

[@mansoureh]

I just finished a book about spending a summer in Scotland and camping

[@speckofdust272]

Nice photography and I love the drone views especially it gives such grandeur and majesty to the scenery ...well done to all ... as a final note though ...some protective headgear going down the rocky flumes would I suggest have been a wise addition but each to their own ...

[@jessicab9989]

This looked like so much fun! as a newbie to hikes like this, i’m insanely curious what you packed! what type of hiking gear/shoes/tent/backback/food you have and whatnot. or even what Dan said about keeping your feet dry :)

[@heynadine]

Stay tuned, video all about that coming this week!

[@jessicab9989]

Awesome! can't wait!!

[@johnathonayles1114]

Amazing camping spot, I never would have thought of Scotland as a camping destination... Now I need to price flights from Canada lol. Cheers, John

Big and big love from Cambodia.

awesome video! is it said the location or is it a secret so it is not crowded?

Ah! I am such a fan and I can't believe you're in my beautiful country! I hope you loved it! Love, love, love from Glasgow! x

thank you for you comment!

Love it!! I live in Inverness (think Loch Ness Monster) and we've been looking for some new places to explore! You should have come further North if you've never been - Inverness is amazing! :)

[@heynadine]

never been to Inverness!! it's on my list though

[@sandrasterkelflack8242]

How awesome ! cool to see some more of Scotland .. I have all these romantic ideas about it after watching Outlander series :)

[@clairabellefeidler4394]

I might go to Scotland in 2020! It looks amazing!

[@mattofstie9298]

Highly recommended! Edinburgh was amazing as well.

[@fredsmith2299]

2020 is good vision too ....

[@FamilyTravelVlog]

That looks so fun and scary at the same time!!

[@mansoureh]

Nadine, You really didn't try the water slide??!! :D How come :P

[@heynadine]

I hurt my back a few weeks ago and was a bit worried :/ next time!

[@derekcolman]

Yeah, that puzzled me too. I mean a girl who did the canyon swing chickens out of a water slide even when it looks safe. Hope your back gets better soon. For anyone who never saw it go here. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fKW0iqp7aK6Uj8U

[@pauldee1577]

There's a natural water slide in Arizona that you can try some other time!

[@josephvenegas9025]

going camping there soon, anyone know where to find that camp spot? it looks so beautiful

[@eatyourcereal7257]

Joseph Venegas same trying to fine it because I’m going there really soon

[@judycarey9051]

New to your channel, Beautiful scenery. Great video. Thank you to your guide, Dan.

[@PhoenixsArt]

Nadine, how do you protect yourself from ticks?

[@heynadine]

tick checks, all the time. Or cover up in longer sleeves.

[@mattofstie9298]

Wearing long shirts and pants (which we didn't do because it was too hot), a hat, bug spray with deet. But the biggest thing is doing very regular tick-checks of your entire body and having a set of tweezers to remove them before they have a chance to burrow. I ended up finding 3 ticks on my body during this trip, but i spotted them really early so they were easy to remove.

[@kamillorenz]

Where exactly is this amazing place can you share it please?

[@druss69harad61]

There's a bit where they're on the west Highland way...pretty sure that's Bridge of Orchy to Inveroran.

[@heatherdee2622]

Favorite ever video of yours...

[@rachthemage7405]

Okay, I've always wanted to go to the Scottish Highlands but never though about camping there too! Better put that on my bucket list. :)

[@heynadine]

yea! there is lots of spots to camp there, either wild camping like us, or just normal camping where you can have your car near by :P

Cant believe you were here! I walk through george square every day!! Beautiful vlog xx

[@anvilbrunner.2013]

Survival expert. lol. Move upstream slowly keep the shadow behind with the sun in your face or preferably go just after sundown or before sun up to catch a trout by hand. Stoop your hands into the water before reaching the fishes tail.

[@harrison7225]

Hi guys love your videos. Thank you. Can you share the location with us or is it a secret. Lol

[@heynadine]

Not a secret we explain how to get there and the waterside is visible from the camping location
