- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 30 ก.ย. 2024
- Today we hike 14 miles, mostly beside Loch Lomond. The trail diverges into two paths, the high way and the low way which are referenced in a popular song: “you take the high way and I’ll take the low way, and I’ll be to Scotland afore ye”. Ryan and I took the low way while others took the high way. We end at Beinglas Farms for camping.

Was beautiful even in the rain...you got some million dollar views......
So wet! But the Loch was a beaut and the rest of the scenery too!
Love all the bluebells in the shire!
Me too!
Ryan needs A Hiking Kilt!
Will need to add this to our gear list next time!
Keep up the great work guys. Really enjoying the videos. 🏴
Thank you!
Now that dessert looked awesome…especially after a day of trudging through the mud. I’m curious about the temperatures there….day and night. Also are you filtering water from streams or getting enough from taps along the way? Thanks for taking the time and energy to share your hike.
Hey John, the temperature was typically low 60s during the day and then high 30s-low 40s overnight. We brought our 15 degree sleeping bags and they were perfect for the temp! And we didn’t need to use the sawyer squeeze once even though we brought it. There’s plenty of taps
@@NickyandRyanontheAT thanks
Yes I'm from Scotland I've done it many times chin up it's not that easy if you have had weather it can be a high mate doo seldom hast you back
Waaw! So beautiful! How long did you walk over this section?
This day was about 14 miles, but the total hike was 96 miles!
Great section❣️😎 lots of waterfalls 😃 The fields of wildflowers😮
Thanks for sharing❣️😃 God bless and keep you safe❣️🙂
The scenery is amazing!
Thank you!
Wow, this is super cool!
Enjoyed today's video. Just wondered what camera you are using for this trip for Vlogging? John from MI
We are using a go pro hero 10
What a beautiful trail! Gorgeous views all over the place. And I remember hearing the "Loch Lomond" song when I was a kid, maybe 50 or so years ago. My neighbors up the hill (who were my godparents) would throw house parties, and my godmother, who was Irish, would play the electric organ while all the adults would stand around it and sing. That must have been one of the songs they sang because I can't think where else I would have heard it. It's cool to see the actual loch and surrounding area mentioned in the lyrics.
O ye'll tak the high road and I'll tak' the low road
An' I'll be in Scotland afore ye:
But me and my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o Loch Lomond.
Great memories. Thanks for sharing your journey, and stay safe!
We heard that song a few times during that section !
Great video! My gosh, the scenery! I appreciate seeing the WHW in all kinds of weather. Some of the Scottish vloggers who have more flexibility of when they walk it only walk when it's sunny and it tends to give the (wrong) impression that it's always lovely. In truth, I think it rains more often than not! My husband and I are doing it next April and we'll have to take whatever weather we get. Thanks for sharing your adventure!
Definitely rains often! It is enjoyable either way!
Really enjoying your videos, hopefully you’re enjoying your time here in Scotland.
Scotland was amazing, if only we had more time to spend in Scotland!
You two are awesome. So good to see the trail again. Isn’t Scotland just the most beautiful place.
We ❤️ Scotland! Can’t wait to return!
Scotsman here, firstly fantastic video. The English guy gave you wrong info. Loch Ness contains more volume of water than all the lochs in England & Wales combined, its not deeper than all of them combined. Also the deepest part of Loch Ness is about 230m. Ben Nevis is over 1300m.
Thank you!! Ah okay that makes a bit more sense! 😅😅
Very enjoyable guys. The bad news is that there’s even more rain forecast until Sunday. Typically Scottish weather I’m afraid.
The good news is that your views will get even better as you continue towards Ft William. Slainte.
It’s amazing how beautiful the views can be even in the rain!
@@NickyandRyanontheAT I honestly don’t mi d the rain anymore. It rains over 260 days a year here so we’re used to the moody, sullen skies.
I'll never forget how good it felt arriving at Beinglas Farm after a 24-mile second day on this hike. The final two miles it was dark and I was beginning to get seriously worried, not to mention exhausted, and I only managed to push through thanks to the adrenaline. Unfortunately, this wonderful and strategically placed campsite has now closed for good. An irreplaceable loss to the WHW.
Beinglas campsite is not closed for good. It opens for the season on 1st April
@@kirsteneasdale5707 Thanks for that. Yes, since writing this post it appears that the campsite is under new ownership. The old owners were quite ambiguous about its future. I'm very happy it will still be around.
Man OH Man!!!! I following both from springer mountain to maine! You sprang up in the recommend.
Oh happy I am for see yas.. Happy Happy Joy Joy
