    Great views!! I'd like to try this hike when I'm there but looking at the shot where you're standing on that cliff/ledge scares the mess out of me! lol!! Great video!!

      LOL! I promise it's not as scary as it looks! As soon as you get on the ledge, it's not so bad anymore. You gotta try it :) But if not, there are a couple other good spots that aren't as bad. Just be careful of course.

    Lions Head looks amazing when the sun starts to rise and the lights of the town are still twinkling. I love the drone you're using!

    Thanks for sharing your experience hiking to iconic Lion's head along with useful tips. Several years ago we were blessed with an opportunity to visit Cape Town for 8 days and one of the places that we visited was Lion's Head. Out of all the cities we have visited worldwide in our opinion Cape Town remains the most beautiful.

    Wow, just wow. The shot at you are 0:25 is soooo amazing! I've always wanted to go to Cape Town but I had no idea it was quite this beautiful. Thanks for your tips! Ugh, I hate people who litter too. Thanks for sharing!

    Nicely done and love the drone footage. Breathtaking in a few ways, especially brave when you showed what the drop from one of the ledges looked like!

    Those opening shots are so amazing and great tips! I bet sunset is good too, but probs quieter a sunrise!

    • @HeyAshleyRenne
      @HeyAshleyRenne  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      That Adventurer yeah I loved how peaceful it was during sunrise! And since I was solo hiking, I thought it would be safer to hike up as the sun was rising versus trying to hike down in the dark after the sun set.

    • @HeyAshleyRenne
      @HeyAshleyRenne  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Look Who's Blogging yeah it was such a pain to carry that equipment. People were passing me all the time because they didn't have anything slowing them down like I did haha.

    You definetely have to go to Cape Breton, Nova Scotia Canada...you will absolutely love it. They would for sure help your channel too they are promoting tourism crazy there.

    • @HeyAshleyRenne
      @HeyAshleyRenne  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'll reach out to their tourism board, thank you for the tip! I'm about to do some research on them now and work on my pitch. If I end up going there I'll make sure to shout you out in the video haha!

    aaaarrrgh!!! The litter really really really annoys me. I don't get it. If everyone left crap behind, then there WONT be a nice place to visit. I don't know what goes on in these people's heads.

    • @HeyAshleyRenne
      @HeyAshleyRenne  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Exactly!! I don't get it either! It's one of the most annoying things I encounter while sightseeing.
