      Hi Chris Jilly here 🙋🏻‍♀️ thanks for your comment it was a really great day unfortunately due to all the concentration on the scrambles and taking in the awesome views I forgot to re apply my sun cream and burnt one arm quite badly 😬 you don’t realise especially when there is a gentle breeze how quickly you catch it! But it didn’t ruin the day and the Lady who owned the Airbnb gave me some special moisturiser which was kind of her! Hope your week is off to a good start have a good one ❤️

      @GENerationXplorers It was great to see you summit it. I was thinking when I watched it about the summit where you got very near the top, but the last scramble was steep, and Nick went on his own. You did really well as I thought this one was worse with those drop-offs. I can't remember where it was now. I'm glad the lady was there to give you help. There is nothing worse than a bad sunburn. Have a great week, both of you. x.

    Ok - Catching up and loved this series so far
    Parking with a view and a half ! What a spot.
    Riano looks gorgeous. Reservoir sinks village - controversial but I guess better than running out of water 💦
    Spooky face in trees - Live and Let Die remake of 80s acid house party ? Toooooon!!!!!
    Scenery on the climb is gorgeous ! But climb is getting steep! Picachu hill looks some feat !
    Has Nick attached bells to his rucksack ?
    Expletives coming from our mouths as we watch this - That’s a scramble - Much respect !!!
    Verging on rock climbing !! With false summits too. Makes 10 flights of stairs on a cruise ship look a breeze!!
    You made it ! Phew !!!! And safely back down too!
    Woodland section looks lovely .
    End with a beautiful old chapel - wow
    What an adventure! Really enjoyed this ! Thank you!
    We both think you deserved two fish finger sandwiches each !

    Hi Nick and Jill
    Loving your adventures in Spain
    Free parking always a bonus 😊
    That was a strange mask in the tree
    Great singing Nick
    Good spot to hydrate, very scenic
    Definitely steep
    What an amazing hike and beautiful weather too
    Lots of scrambling, braver than I am , I don't think I could have done it especially carrying Boo (Jo) 😂
    Love to hear those cow bells
    Loved the "dog rose" 🌹
    Bet the shade of the trees was most welcomed on the way back 😊
    Love a fish finger buttie, Hope you buttered the bread and covered them in vinegar 😂 delicious 😋
    Definitely deserved that wine 🍷

Till the next morning that is 🤣🤣🤣! That last bit going down was gorgeous. Loved the cows and their music. I'm so glad you filmed this- Now I can watch this any time I need to escape the dull and dreary days of winter. Pretty flower indeed. We love that app. Use it a lot. Lovely chapel.

    This is one amazing mountain! 😍😍Lovely silhouette, incredible views and interesting ascent! 👍👍Beautifully filmed too of course 😍😍. I have one small comment regarding comparison to one of the finest Scottish mountains 😜😜 - Ben Nevis may be lower than Pico Gilbo, but the ascent gain is twice as high, coz you start nearly at sea level. Actually, in that respect Ben Nevis is higher than Mount Blanc, coz you start the Mount Blanc trail at 3800m 😁😁😁😁

Yeah the guys at the top practically hiked most of the way with us nice kids very Spanish but insisted on singing English boy band stuff at the top not sure if it was for our benefit or not there was a group of girls with them but they didn’t want to do the final scramble so we’re sat on a ledge a little lower down!

    Wow what an amazing hike and the views throughout your hike were stunning. That rock scramble looked a bit tough and it is always so much harder going down that up. Bummer that in making the reservoir they had to have a village go below the water line. We have a few submerged towns here in the states as well. I hope you guys are having a great week! 😊👍

    Hi Nick and Jill
    Brilliant and challenging hiking trail. Sending my standing ovations to you, two.
    The camera probably did not do the justice. But it is close enough to see the danger, challenges, and beauty in one place.
    haha where are those shirtless PPL came from..hahaha You did not throw a party at the summit, did you? hahah
    Congratulations to you bringing victory with you.
    haha what English tradition? I thought about fancy finger sandwich with cucumber, egg and such hahah.

    Wow, now that is a mountain and that was some drive in, especially to get a free park too! The colour after the bridge was stunning and I think I would have been just as happy settling down for the day amongst all that! That goodness for rehydrating and helpful Spanish people or else that could have been one dam long walk. Unbelievable views one the way up and over the reservoir but it must have been tough in that heat and going up the side of doom, instead of the official path. Mind you, the official path did not look much better and I think you needed to be a trained contortionist to get up, around and under some of those rocks - a beast indeed! Breath-taking views from the summit and thankfully you did not pull a hamstring when you were kicking it's ass, amazing scrambling up but what go's up must come down - yikes! I think I would have gone 16 out of 10 to be fair what a view and what a 360! That must have been a relief to get back down in one piece but great to than be able to enjoy the meadows walk back to the reservoir, despite those cows, which did not look very friendly to me. Walking back over the bridge and looking back at the mountain, it looks almost impossible you were bother there a couple of hours ago. Well deserved red wine and fish finger sandwich - Dee lious us! Cheers Alan

      have to say when the mountain appeared from so many miles away I was really shocked! what have we let ourselves in for? could have done with some Spanish people helping us two days later when we got completely off track for three hours which left us with a nine hour hike! 🥵 like sheep we followed two other people in front of us that made the same mistake in missing the path and sure enough a few minutes later another couple who had been following us made the same mistake. very foolish! I need to be careful with those kicked it’s behind shots, can you imagine pulling a hamstring and then not being able to complete the hike? that would be so embarrassing! honestly Alan Spanish cows are so different from English ones. I’ve lay down next to them chatting with them for hours on end and they seem so chilled. English cows you often have to stand up to! we did catch way too much sun on that day, we had our faces and elbows covered and nothing else. Jill only narrowly evaded a hospital trip from burns to her arm. just don’t really think of those parts to cover with sun cream on a nice day. that fish finger sandwich was heaven and wine at £1 a bottle tastes so much better! hope your having an amazing weekend. excited for your Wendy’s review as was dying to try it. had one in London back in the 80s that I remember liking, im guessing they have changed..

This one was really beautiful. We enjoyed the Spanish lessons we were repeating Gilbo with you. It looked quite a climb we were feeling it just watching you 😆. Some wonderful views the colour of the water was absolutely amazing. You must be the hardest working channel to bring us our entertainment. It was pretty busy at the top considering the climb you had to do to get there. Did you attract a dog at 13:49? Those cow bells sound so good. Very mighty boosh at the end there 😆.

I think my days of those ended in the latter 90s sadly, I should probably take the responsible option and never lift my leg up again. imagine how embarrassing needing an air lift off a mountain would be because I pulled a move I should have stopped twenty years ago? very irresponsible of me! ah the Hacienda days, such an amazing club, all black bouncers and shared toilets, so different from the Blackpool I grew up accustomed to, I loved the place! thats a very posh sounding fish finger buttie Matt!
