Spinalonga / Kalydon Crete - Aug 2024
A hot (30C+) rocky hike around the uninhabited island of Kalydon, sometimes referred to as Spinalonga in Elounda, Crete, Greece.
Not a hilly hike, but with some minor steep-ish inclines and in weather that was testing at times. The back-end of the island was extremely hot and unrelenting with little to no shade or breeze! (5 litres of water taken for a few hours hike.)
***Remember if you are hiking in hot weather, plan carefully, make sure people know where you are going and take plenty of food & water (most important 1.5 - 2 litres per hour of the hike + additional) and also a portable shade you if you need to stop and rest!. I found a large poncho to be particularly useful as it can be folded up easily, covers a large area approx. 3m sq. and something I normally carry it in my rucksack anyway.***

A hot and sweaty hike up to the top of Mount Oxa (540m) starting at the Olive Garden Apartments in Elounda, Crete. Its the first time ever I've hiked and not come across anyone else, so its very nice from that perspective, but also keep that in mind from a safety point of view. Remember, when its hot take plenty of water with out as well as a few snacks. We had 6 litres between us and drank eve...

Look, this video is over an hour long and is probably not best for casual viewing! There is also explicit language used (mostly used when stepping on sharp rocks, tripping up, slipping or just generally complaining about unexpected hill climbs). There will be more reels and shorts coming soon, so watch out for them! This is simply a splice together of all my video's taken from the 2024 MacMilla...

MacMillan Mighty Hike 2024 - Descending the Rocky Path!
มุมมอง 353 หลายเดือนก่อน
Rocky Decent on the first half of the MacMillan Mighty Hike 2024, following the Ullswater Way from Pooley Bridge to Glenridding. This follows the path that passes round the lakeside front of Green Hill / Gowbarrow Fell facing. Rocky descent in places, passable by able hikers, but must be respected and taken with care.....as you will see in the video.

Some epic views along this route. Very moody today with the clouds hovering around Striding Edge; Helvellyn; Swirral Edge and Catstye Cam. Apologies for the sound in places, you can't control the wind!

Part of the Helvellyn Round. Thoroughly enjoyable climb though very long it took ~4 hours to ascend to Helvellyn summit from Glenridding via Birkhouse Moor. Conditions were for from ideal on the day as the cloud cover was higher than forecasted, with 30mph gusts and driving rain at the summit. We ended up altering our descending route as Swirral Edge looked virtually invisible from the path dow...
