Possibly one of the most beautiful videos I’ve ever seen. The music score, the landscapes and cinematography, just breathtaking. Please never stop what you’re doing.
To set up camp beside an active volcano had to be a most unbelievable experience. I have never seen this portion of Iceland. It is magnificent and otherworldly. Another brilliant film my friend! You bring it like few others are able and I am grateful. ❤
Oh yes, you betcha! The must have been the most raw display of nature I've ever experienced. There's something so humbling in seeing a volcano erupt, especially if you consider the thing is almost 100m in diameter (still considered a mini volcano)! Thanks for the nice words, glad you liked it!
Hallo, welche Drohne benutzt du bei deinen Flugaufnahmen? Tolle Videos mit viel Ruhe und Harmonie, ohne dauerndes Geschwafel und lauter Musik, dafür viele schöne Originaltöne die wunderschön sind .
I have now watched several of your movies. I am speechless. Totally. I realise the amount of hard work and attention to detail that is required. This, as well as other movies on your channel, isn't simply a 'youtube'; it is visual art. You deserve recognition. Well done.
This is a piece of volcanic art. Please never stop making these videos, your hikes are alway incredible to watch. As someone who has lived in the city all my life, I never get to be in naturescapes like this, and I truly felt dreamy seeing these videos and beauty of the earth. Thanks Harmen!
The amount of variety and framing you achieve solo is crazy. You make those automated drone shots look easy. Not to mention the care and time you put into making a solo production look like it was filmed by a crew of cameramen.
Harmen, your films always deliver a well-balanced combination of the intensity, power, raw beauty of nature and the feelings of calm, serenity and peace only to be found through encounters with nature. The hiking locations you choose, the filming angles, the drone shots, the soundtrack, and how you magically blend them together into these breathtaking footages one after another. You have truly taken the hiking films genre to another level, the quality of your content is just unparalleled! I'm so grateful and blessed to have found your channel and to be taken along on these incredible journeys with you. you are a huge inspiration to someone like me who have yet had the chance to set feet in these stunning landscapes, I can't express my appreciation for you and your work enough. Thank you so much! 🙏❤❤
This is beautiful, and magnificently therapeutic. Makes everything else, our worries seem so small in comparison, everytime I watch your videos. Thank you for sharing your journey with us.
Thanks for the amazing videos Harmen. I’m living my best life through your videos. I will give everything to do what you do. God bless you and keep you safe🙏🏽
Harmen, your great interest in nature, your great choices in hiking venues and your great artistic videography skills are uniquely superior...thanks for exposing us to the beatiful volcanic wonderland of Iceland👌🏻
I kind of imagined it would be warm to hot where you were watching and filming, but you had your jumper on so I guess not. There were some very scary sounds in this one and I was glad to be viewing safe at home (Western Australia). I'm grateful to you, Harmen, for all your time and effort in bringing these wonderful films to us. And very happy you are safe now. I resisted the temptation to say awesome, spectacular, epic... but it was :)
No, it wasn't too bad actually. Air is a terrible conductor, so it's like a big campfire, if you're 10 meters away you don't feel any heat. Thanks for the compliments!
De mieux en mieux. L’esthétique de l’image et la qualité de la bande-son sont ici poussés à leur paroxysme. Terre brute, lave en fusion, geyser, sources d’eau chaude, estran sauvage, cieux extraordinaires… Nous sommes bien immergés en Islande en compagnie de quelques oiseaux siffleurs tel ce courlis Corlieu au détour d’un chemin. Sublime. **** Better and better. The aesthetics of the image and the quality of the soundtrack are pushed to their climax here. Raw earth, molten lava, geyser, hot springs, wild foreshore, extraordinary skies... We are well immersed in Iceland in the company of a few whistling birds such as this Whimbrel at the bend of a path. Gorgeous.
Like wax indeed, that tinkling sound like wind chimes that lava makes always puts a smile on my face. Such an unassuming sound for something so powerful. Thanks for the calming headspace Harmon, beautifully done
My man, i was there this summer, i saw these things, nature and its power, loneliness and beauty and it was a completely surreal experience for us to be so close to the "colder" lava (1-2 meters) and its crackling sound, like glass breaking every second. A good friend, my brother and I hiked in the same terrain, the same places, the same landscapes then you. Your video with this music, these shots.... You just made me cry. Thank You so much !
Icelandic landscapes are stunning at all times, but that eruption / sunset scene was just next level! Outstanding production as always Harmen, thanks so much for sharing 👍
Every time I see a new video from Harmen, I know I'm in for a moment of escape and beauty. And every time, I'm never disappointed. Simply gorgeous and relaxing. Thank you Harmen 👍😍💯
A sublime subject and a sublime film. It made me shiver. That westering sun in a sky of brass (6.44) behind the orange splatters of the volcano and its lava, with a faint orange light in your tent in the nearer middleground! If you planned that last detail, it is genius, even if you didn't, it's still there, a perspective of the cosmos, the planet, and the moment of human presence. The epigraphic Psalm passage "The hills melted like wax at the presence of the Lord" finally brings in another presence, the sublime Maker.
wonderful . Your work continues to inspire me. Thanks for putting in all of the hard work and effort to always capture these amazing moments on your trips , thank you for sharing the beauty of Iceland with us. Enjoyed every single frame, background music and tansition in this It's unbelievably breathtaking and se elegantly crafted. Thank you so much for sharing the wonders with us 😍👌
Sublime ! Magnifiques et en même temps assez sinistres paysages. Vos photos comme toujours sont superbes, tant les paysages que les détails. Les images des volcans en ebullition sont exceptionelles. Merci pour toutes ces videos de vos randonnées, personne ne vous arrive à la cheville !
I am addicted to your channel. Your filmography is outstanding! Another great video. Thank you Harmen for taking us on your travels. Keep up the adventures.
I love it when your new videos come out, they’re so peaceful and relaxing I know I’m in for a good nights sleep after watching it. As someone with chronic insomnia, that is one of the highest compliments I can give you.
This is the best nature colors presentation you have done, I like it the most. And the most dangerous terrain and environment appeared to all too. Also your coffee also appeared like a dark volcanic mud swirl. Great creations!!! Looking forward to more of your future adventures. be careful out there!
Harmen the videos you make are just sublime. Every time I know I'm in for some complete relaxation and beautiful cinematography. It must suck to carry all the gear constantly but the results are just outstanding. Thank you for all your effort!
I have never realised that seeing a person hiking can be so pleasant! Thank you Harmen and your video brought me back to the memory of my wonderful trip in Iceland last year. However, I wonder how you made your tripod stand so well since Iceland is super super windy!! 😂🤣
I am impressed!! the landscape of Iceland is spectacular and your films are the most beautiful i have ever seen. God bless you Harmen! again a big thank you!!!
Beste Harmen, wat een fantastische video. Wij hebben elkaar kort ontmoet tijdens het lopen van de Laugavegur Trail (4 weken geleden - Ben en Bram) en ik heb vol spanning gewacht op deze video. Je hebt een bijzonder talent, heel mooi om te zien.
He Ben en Bram! Ja, dat kan ik me nog herinneren! Hoop dat jullie een goede tocht nog hebben gehad die dagen, zonder al teveel regen (mijn laatste dag had een paar buitjes). Bedankt voor de complimenten. De video van Laugavegur komt later dit jaar nog!
Thank you SO much for another incredible film! It filled me with awe and reverence. It is deeply nourishing to my soul. Really, words are inadequate to express my appreciation for this gift!
Hats off to you , Harmen for picking the best & most unique campsites. Beside an active volcano 😮❤ Was absolutely breathtakingly beautiful. Are you sure that was planet earth because the silence & stillness is what I love. Petrified of birds so I guess I could never visit. Super job on this as well as all your videos. 🙋🏼♀️👍🏻🇺🇸
This is easily one of the most beautiful things I ever seen! The bad part is that after I subscribed I cannot enjoy silent hiking videos of other guys. They all lack smth😂
Another special artistic video made by Harmen!👏 I wish us many more🙏😀 Thank you Harmen, your work just surpasses everyone else's and is simply a treat👍
This is a beautifully made video. No chatter, just great scenery, relaxing music, and well paced content. I had my tent in Iceland a few weeks ago, but the volcano was already dead, so skipped the long hike out (and didn't know one could camp)
Parts of the video look like from another planet. This is exactly how I imagine Mars, Venus, the moon Europa and many other places in our solar system. Incredibly well filmed, the volcanoes, the topdown views, just Waoh. Have saved the video to watch later since appearing because I wanted to watch on a quiet morning in a relaxed atmosphere. Today is that day and it was very worthwhile. Thank you so much for your indescribable work. 🤯 = describes this video perfectly for me.
Those were some of the most beautiful sunsets I've ever seen. Thank you for taking us along for this beautiful hike. And thank you for sharing the best of God's creation with us!
LOVED the drone hiking shots in this one! Fascinating scenery - and volcano! Did I see some GoPro footage ;) ? The sound design is just brilliant my friend. And the dynamic range of the drone shots 😮😮 👏
One of the most Amazing journey I have done. I hope you have enjoyed the unique experience of the natural hot spring all around the island best in late winter or autumn too. Thank for sharing 🎉❤❤❤
Possibly one of the most beautiful videos I’ve ever seen. The music score, the landscapes and cinematography, just breathtaking. Please never stop what you’re doing.
Thanks a lot! Much more to come!

@@HarmenHoek beautiful response. You are so in touch with life. Thanks again Harmen
Another beautiful film. Thank you for sharing.
You’re the best Harmen 👍
Thank you for creating such a serene video, it’s like watching someone’s dream 😍🔥
Hallo, welche Drohne benutzt du bei deinen Flugaufnahmen? Tolle Videos mit viel Ruhe und Harmonie, ohne dauerndes Geschwafel und lauter Musik, dafür viele schöne Originaltöne die wunderschön sind .
Your exquisite photography is the finest in the world. You are extremely gifted.
Thank you.
Thank you too
One does not simply walk into Mordor… unless one is Harmen Hoek.
I have now watched several of your movies. I am speechless. Totally. I realise the amount of hard work and attention to detail that is required. This, as well as other movies on your channel, isn't simply a 'youtube'; it is visual art. You deserve recognition. Well done.
rewatching this.. deserves more views and minutes.
True insanity that you don't have more subscribers- the cinematography and sound design in your videos is so absurdly good. Keep it up
Thanks a ton! =)
Not many people allow nature to tell its own story….you are a phenomenal storyteller who uses no words in telling a story. Your work is amazing. 🫡
Harmen, you choice of music score - is just brilliant. Thank you for inviting us to your journeys. Be safe!!
This is a piece of volcanic art. Please never stop making these videos, your hikes are alway incredible to watch. As someone who has lived in the city all my life, I never get to be in naturescapes like this, and I truly felt dreamy seeing these videos and beauty of the earth. Thanks Harmen!
Thanks, will do!
This is the best and most sophisticated trekking video I have seen so far... Congratulations!👏

Wow, it must be incredible to camp next to a volcano. The sound must be impressive also. Thanks again for your video.
Yeah, definitely one of the coolest camp sites ever. The sounds of the volcano at night are surreal
You've taken us there and we thank you for that. Don't stop doing what you're doing.
WOW!!!
🙏🏽

I will comment on it again, I like your videos before watching them!!!
😊🙂🙂
You captured one of the best volcano shots!!!
Its fantastic!!!
loved it!🤩
Once again you have created a visual masterpiece with stunning colours!
Many thanks!
Awesome Harmen, you always show the magic of the place and not the ego, which so many creators (including myself) fail to do.
Thank you for the compliment. If I ever change, please let me know (;
Sublime !
Magnifiques et en même temps assez sinistres paysages. Vos photos comme toujours sont superbes, tant les paysages que les détails. Les images des volcans en ebullition sont exceptionelles.
Merci pour toutes ces videos de vos randonnées, personne ne vous arrive à la cheville !
한편의 IMAX 영화를 보는것 같았습니다.
지구는 살아 있고
Harmen Hoek님의 영상은
무한한 내면의 평화를 주는것
같습니다.
언제나 건강하시길 바랍니다.
Thank you!!
Yeah this is pretty amazing
glad you think so
I am addicted to your channel. Your filmography is outstanding! Another great video. Thank you Harmen for taking us on your travels. Keep up the adventures.

Harmen, This experience you shared was like watching you camp on another planet! I'm just stunned at the quality and creativeness of this production.
I love it when your new videos come out, they’re so peaceful and relaxing I know I’m in for a good nights sleep after watching it.
As someone with chronic insomnia, that is one of the highest compliments I can give you.

Thank you for creating this wonderful video. It is perfect to relax during the weekend.
My daughter said , mum it’s like filming everything next to the death. You are a brave man n incredible skills
Wow,what a landscape. That shot of the volcano and sun was incredable. Another superb prodution Harmen. Loved it.
I'm glad your channel is growing, you make some of the best hiking videos I've seen on TH-cam.
Amazing video! I would love to see more Iceland content.
Thank you so much for the support!
Very, very good. Thank you for making and sharing this.

Are you sure that was planet earth because the silence & stillness is what I love. Petrified of birds so I guess I could never visit. Super job on this as well as all your videos. 🙋🏼♀️👍🏻🇺🇸
It felt like Mordor for sure. Stay away from the lake, and you'll be fine (;. Thanks for the comment!
I think that Iceland is another planet :) Thanks for the great video :)
Amazing!
Thanks for the support! 😊
This is easily one of the most beautiful things I ever seen! The bad part is that after I subscribed I cannot enjoy silent hiking videos of other guys. They all lack smth😂
Haha, I'm sorry, but glad to hear you like it!
What a beautiful film! To camp near a lava cauldron had to be an amazing experience!! The scenery was just gorgeous!
Imagine how great are your creations that even the weather stays calm in Iceland for you to create such a great and beautiful video! 🙌🏽
Thank you so much 😀

This is a beautifully made video. No chatter, just great scenery, relaxing music, and well paced content. I had my tent in Iceland a few weeks ago, but the volcano was already dead, so skipped the long hike out (and didn't know one could camp)
So this spectacular marvel of nature is no longer there?
Masterpiece: The landscapes , the scenery, the cut and music. Thank you very much for this beautiful Film. 🏆
WAUW. Dit is echt waanzinnig mooi. Dankjewel voor dit prachtige werk...!
Graag gedaan! (:
Amazing content as always! I always love watching what you produce. It takes me away to a place where I feel secure and safe.

This is so beautiful that it turned into poetry 😌
Thank you very much for sharing.
Glad you like it, thanks!
It is so beautiful! Overwhelmed with emotions, I want to cry watching these views 😍😭
Glad to hear so, seeing a volcano erupt up close is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen!
LOVED the drone hiking shots in this one! Fascinating scenery - and volcano! Did I see some GoPro footage ;) ? The sound design is just brilliant my friend. And the dynamic range of the drone shots 😮😮 👏
Les couleurs du volcans mêlés avec les couleurs du ciel quelle beauté magnifique et incroyable très belle vidéo merci!! 😊
Spectacular photography and ASMR story telling. Another work of art.
Thanks for the compliment (:
What a wonderful film. So good. A pleasure to watch the whole way through.
