The bike certainly helped Andy and it's quite an enjoyable cycle.. if only the magic could transport you straight into the bath at home! Cheers again mate...Paul
Good stuff Paul, we cycled to the red bothy in the dark and camped there .Then carried on to Geldie Lodge in morning done the two munros and camped the night at Geldie lodge and had some laugh . Nice to see the route again cheers..Good to get they two in the bag mate ..cheers Stevie
Thanks Stevie! I watched robin’s video before I went and seen yous arriving in the dark! Looked brilliant! Cheers again mate and thanks for watching! Paul
Hi Paul, yes did the same route as you. Sorry I can't remember the condition of the bothy. Would like to head back to these Munros again soon. All the best. Cheers.
Just a wee tiff Charlie! 🥴 Frank has done this walk so he decided to go elsewhere! A great feeling of remoteness on these two and with it being midweek I never saw a soul! Cheers Charlie! Paul
Yeah Gordon. Saves the old legs plus I have been enjoying the bike bike more recently 😁win win. It's a fair old walk and I imagine would take quite a bit of time? Cheers mate and thanks for watching! Paul
@@PAADVENTURES1 It was. I was going opposite direction to you but it took forever to get back on the path. I had been on the hills to the east (iutharns) the days before and then a bivvy at loch tilt. Wouldn’t repeat!
Lovely vid Paul, as per usual top notch editing. Yeh I wouldn’t fancy doing these in wet weather with river crossings, peat hags and pathless terrain. Like you say there is a strong feeling of remoteness with these munros and I’m glad I’ve got them out the way. Well done again mate, and all hail the mountain bike.🤣🚴🏽👍 Cheers Frank👍🏔🥾
Cheers Frank! A great walk all made that bit simpler with the bikes eh! It felt really remote and I would not like to be caught out there if the weather changed! Those river crossings would be scary! Just a few more to visit from linn of dee and that’s them. I have grown really fond of this area! Paul
well filmed Paul ..Bike is a Time Machine on them two. Fair bit of heather bashing up first one and second.. rivers were a fair bit higher when I did them a few years ago. I have a vid of it on my channel..New sub mate !!
Cheers Larry and thanks very much for the sub! I felt a bit nervous for this walk due to the remoteness and distance but it turned out brilliant! The bike definitely makes a difference and I was lucky with the river levels! Just a trickle. Quite a workout up to the first one and I imagine it’s a boggy one in wetter days! Great day out though and very memorable. Will check out your channel today! Thanks mate and cheers again. Paul
Cracking video as usual Paul😁..Looks a really long tour mate..The bothy looks amazing..I wouldn’t mind a visit there when it’s finished😍..Another two in the bag for you mate.😁 Cheers Robert
Cheers Robert! That bothy was amazing! Not sure if it will end up a private one or not? A long day but the bike makes such a difference! Cheers again mate. Paul
Great video Paul 👌 another very long day , I've still to do these Munros so definitely anti - clockwise, the bothy looks amazing 😀 some great camera angles and editing 👌 superb Paul atb Brian 👍
Thanks so much Brian! I would recommend taking the bike if you are planning these and watch that weather as those river crossings could be tricky! The bothy looked very nice! Not sure if it will be a locked bothy or not! Would be a good wee overnight stop when doing these hills too! Cheers again mate...Paul
Cheers Andy. Good to visit these ones on a dry day when the rivers are low I think. I thought it was going to take me longer to do them so left the drone behind. I wanted to concentrate on just getting round the walk. As it turned out I would have enjoyed getting some shots of geldie lodge and the bothy. Ach well! Thanks for watching mate and hope you are back from your holiday ready to get out and about! Paul
@@PAADVENTURES1 cheers Paul, its been about 6 weeks since I have been out.. just busy with other commitments. Hopefully Creag Meggy 3 a week on Saturday and weekend in the Gorms the following weekend. Praying for good weather! LOL.
Excellent Paul, 40k plus even with bike is very impressive (maybe an electro bike would be worth it for you, any idea how many Munros would benefit from a bike in some way?) - not surprised no-one was around! 150 is a good milestone well over half now...you are on the downward slope :-) you will need to do them all again in winter when complete 😁😁😁 Can I ask what app you use for the mapping or is it just done in your editor? Cheers 👌👌👌
Guess what I have just ordered through the cycle to work scheme????😀😀😀😀I will be eating through those miles now! Lol. Yeah 151 now, still a ways to go but enjoying the journey Dave. I have been using Outdooractive for my route finding but then using keynote on my Mac to do the wee map animations. Quite simple and I think it helps show the route for anyone who is considering it? Does it? 🥴I would love to get them all done and have the energy to go round again in winter! That would be amazing! Paul
Excellent Paul - did you go for a folding number? I have been browsing but a lot of choice (styles, wheel sizes, volts and watts) and don't know whether I would use it enough. Yes the keynote defo helps give an idea of where you are at, going to have a go at it on my next trek - Cheers for the tip...Dave. 👌
@@ALochOnTheWildSide hi Dave, just went for a straightforward mountain bike. An Orbea. Got some recommendations from mountain bike friends! Would have never gone for it if I couldn’t have done the cycle to work scheme! Too expensive otherwise! Not sure how long it takes but I will let you know how it goes 👍👍
Excellent - send me your keynote before you go your next trip...ahem...erm,...I'm needing a mountain bike 😁😁😁 Recommendations are always a good thing, can't wait to see how you get on with it...👌👌🚲🚲🚲🚲🚲🚲
Hi there! I think with walking in good conditions I would allow around 10-12 hours depending on your speed! It’s around 26 miles which is a reasonable distance! Hope that helps! Paul
Happy Friday Paul, going to let this play through and help erase the work week blues, spark some wanderlust for the weekend and hopefully help Kat and I figure out what to do with ourselves. Hope you ate well, have a great weekend, Ceri and Kat ☕️ ❤️ 👍 😀 like button tickled 👍 🪶
A long one Paul, well done. "By the magic of television, i'm back at the car", haha. Good stuff. 👍
The bike certainly helped Andy and it's quite an enjoyable cycle.. if only the magic could transport you straight into the bath at home! Cheers again mate...Paul
interesting videos and useful tutorials, thank you for sharing👍
Thank you so much!, Paul
Well done Paul... a very long day in the mountains.
That bothy looked a cracker 👌
Cheers Tam! Paul
Brilliant Paul and you caught the weather right too.
Thanks Graeme! Seeing the forecast and the recent dry spell I couldn’t resist a visit! Great to have calm weather for these two! Thanks mate. Paul

Hi Paul, another great video really enjoyed it. I did these remote Munros back in 1994, very special place. All the best to you.
Cheers Gordon! Did you do them the same route as me? Was that wee bothy a ruin then? Cheers. Paul
Hi Paul, yes did the same route as you. Sorry I can't remember the condition of the bothy. Would like to head back to these Munros again soon. All the best. Cheers.
@@gordon.5556 cheers Gordon!
Hi Paul, Hope you and Frank haven't had a fall out...lol. Great the the tops remained clear and you bagged this remote pair. Cheers, Charlie.
Just a wee tiff Charlie! 🥴 Frank has done this walk so he decided to go elsewhere! A great feeling of remoteness on these two and with it being midweek I never saw a soul! Cheers Charlie! Paul
Love it! Still have a wee giggle at your Walkhighlands pronunciation/translations lol 😂
The best part of the video 😁
Always good to get the mountains to yourself - Alistair
Cheers Alastair! A long but enjoyable walk. Thanks for watching. Paul
Wot that was a long walk Paul!
A brilliant day mate! The bike did make it easier though! Cheers again. Paul
Nice one Paul. Putting in the miles on the bike recently. I did these without a bike: it was a long haul! Gordon
Yeah Gordon. Saves the old legs plus I have been enjoying the bike bike more recently 😁win win. It's a fair old walk and I imagine would take quite a bit of time? Cheers mate and thanks for watching! Paul

That’s a good long hike (and bike ride). So can anyone stay at that Botha if they come upon it?
Yeah Seth! There are literally 100s of bothys in Scotland. Most are run by the mountain bothy association and are unlocked for everyone’s use!
Great stuff Paul . Very remote indeed and good to have the place to yourself. No drone footage on this one? Which is not like you these days
