Super video. I must go there and have a look. It’s only 2 1/2 hours drive from where I live.
Thanks! Definitely worth the trip. Hope you get the chance to explore it soon!
Nice video, thanks, i have been there 2 months ago, i took the small trail from the small village of Zerkall, hard to imagne that men had to go op there to fight, it was realy steep, they were heroes for sure, The Kall-trail is also a great place to make a video i think, been there aswell, greetings Eric
Thanks so much, Eric! It’s incredible that you’ve been to the same place. I agree, it’s hard to imagine what those men went through, especially given how steep and challenging the terrain is. They truly were heroes. I’ll definitely look into the Kall-trail for a future video-thanks for the suggestion!
