Trekking Solo In the Highlands | Cape Wrath Trail Part 2
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ส.ค. 2024
- Part 2 of the CAPE WRATH Trail, heading from Cona Glen northbound. In this stage, I get eaten alive by midges, head into Glenfinnan under the famous Viaduct, pop in at Corryhully Bothy and pitch my tent as the weather changes...
Such beautiful views passing these remote sections of the Scottish Highlands, even got to see some red deer on my travels.
Thank you so much everyone for your support and leaving such lovely comments :) Take care!

This lady is inspirational , love her down to earth approach ,and the warmth of personality comes shining through this epic adventure.
watching this from a warm bed in a warm house
i don't know how you do it, much respect from up north
Showing the route you've traveled is a good feature of your channel, especially since you describe the conditions and possible camp sites which could be so helpful to others.

You are a very impressive and inspirational young person. Well done for such a suberb effort.
Don't want to get caught in a live firing range. Make a sign that says Midges are prohibited here. Ha Ha! You have a great sense of humor. Good choice on not camping near the river as most tents don't float well. And food is important :)) Enjoyed part 2 and looking forward to part 3. Thanks for sharing this adventure and have a wonderful day.
Hahaha! Thank you Moses, all the best x
I’ve no intention of doing this but it doesn’t stop me being inspired by you, Becky. Brilliant 😎👍
You are doing SO well with your journey! You handle adversity well and thanks so much for the beautiful cinematoagrapy! I have never seen Scotland so up close before. Definitely following your trip and keep up the great work.

Long time hiker-back-packer here - now too old to participate. Thank you for sharing your journey and keeping that flame inside of me. Wishing you continued adventures, fair weather, and great company along the way. God bless.
Thank you James!
You do a great job every time even when the elements aren't always the best thanks for taking us on another journey.
Very inspirational young lady, excellent journey and footage. Thank you for sharing 👏
midges cling to still/boggy areas, pick a spot that has a wee breeze, to avoid them, their tiny wings are useless in a gust
Great video. I liked your little map debrief at the end.
Thank you !
Amazing lady. 👏 you're doing fantastic. Such an inspiration. Great to watch. Thank you for sharing your adventures 😊

What a lovely lass. Although I`m not a boggy kind of person myself. But love Scotland, despite those wicked midges.
Thanks! :)

Hello Becky 👋, how are you doing? I haven't seen your videos for ages. I'm having a catch up. I'm always impressed how calming your videos are for my mental health. They make make me feel so much better. You're such a delightful person and the scenery is always wonderful. I'm so glad you have walked up Scotland again. Very good, it's my dream to go walking in Scotland. I haven't done it yet. But you always inspire me, and I am so grateful for that and bless you so much on your future plans. Take care 👍

Fantastic video, can't wait for the next one. You are a great inspiration and lots of fun. Good luck with the next leg.
Never forget the “Midges” , They swarmed me up on the Isle of Skye. Can be a real nuisance! Good look on your trek!
That was funny when u said u put ur thumb up but they didn't stop, plus gold panning for earring, doing good job an enjoying the trip with u
That’s quite an undertaking - brilliant! 👍🏻
interesting tent! The inside looks white and the outside is blue!
I can't believe how fast your video went in 40 minutes it was really interesting and relaxing watching the views
Hi Beck’s!
Glad the shoes did ya well! Great vid! Love this Journey! Pure inspiration! 🙌
Thank you Jake, means a lot! All the best 😊
Love watching all your videos. I li e in Stirlingshire Scotland so the gateway to the Highlands. Love seeing all the places you visit as its been a while since Ive been some of these areas. Makes me feel moti ated to get back out there and visit these amazing places again. We really are so lucky to live in such a beautiful country. 😁
Great video Becks. Thanks for sharing. Take care
Loving these recent vids from Scotland Becky. I also enjoyed your solo camp by the Loch. And the trusty packraft. Keep on living the dream. Xx 😊👍
Thank you!!
Great video Becky beautiful part of Scotland 🏴 keep trekking
Excellent watch !, look forward to these videos 😁 keep them coming 😊
Love ya becks what your doing and your vids so much information and inspiration, ive done almost every munro in scotland ,just 10 to go .walks like this ill miss ,your such a star 🌟
Well done Becky,another inspiring video,Midges still a problem.I was up on a camp at Lochan Maoil at Loch Lomond,one of your camp spots on your west highland way video .I was there 15 October,and midges were out also,so think they are all over still.Really enjoying this,very best wishes.
Great stuff. The restrictions are frustrating. Stay safe and best to all. Cheers
My first camp was at Glenfinnan by the river. Loads of midge's worst of all trip. The view's are loads better further on. Good video. After the first few days all the stage's I set went out of the window and I just went with the flow 😊👌
Hold in there Becky, this October has been mild in temperature so I guess the midges are still thriving. I'm sure they will ease off as your trip clock's up the day's and miles 😃👍
I think she says this was mid September
Great job. You are a super beautiful trooper! Would definitely follow you and watch your back and help the path! Lots of love and blessings from Ontario Canada!
Lovely video and really inspiring, thank you.
Wow‼ How wonderful. I feel the clean air. Thank you very much. from Japan💛😃
The midges are a pain my mom feels not well with them she was using mouth wash it was the one thing at hand to stop the itching it work she felt better after the Clegs, or horseflies are like mosquitoes they are bit picky who they have blood off it's more the warmer weather they come out and play welcome to Scotland thank you for your hard work.
Whilst out kayaking in the Firth of Clyde some half mile/mile offshore I have had to wear my midge net...little children of unmarried parentage! Same difference in the Sahara, when you think there's nothing around...a wolf, wild dogs can be seen and heard. Then there's always camels far and near.
Miss Becky your navigational skills are amazing!!! Your beautiful smile always brightens up my day. Take care of your feet. I'm ex USMC wore out 3 pairs of boots in 1 year. ❤ this video!!! Can't wait to watch more. ❤❤🌹🌹 from Texas.
Great vid. You really know your stuff. Enjoyed every minute. Darron. Totnes. Devon
Belta Becky. Looking forward to this episode. Also just what one needs after a day at graft. Cheers 👍
This is part 2😂😂😂😂😂
Really enjoying the videos of this trail.
Part 2 was amazing, loving this trip of yours. 40 mins went so quick with interesting stuff, had to check back. Wonderful journey ❤ be looking at ordering the food too, good reviews 👌 ideal for some of my travels. Take care and keep enjoying exploring. All the best 👍
Love the scenery, an the jets story....bn too the mach loop in Wales very similar scenario
Loving ur videos Thanku for sharing with us stay safe have an amazing time! Ur making me wanna go Scotland again haha xx
Aw thank you Sara, glad you like the video!
Never stayed at Corryhully or a'Chuil but I know so much of the route in this video, without even knowing there was a Cape Wrath Trail until I saw your first video.
Bothies usually have a visitor book just like a B&B and I have been a bit of a devil with these in the past. Once I fabricated a story about a party at a bothy and the visitors were Gordon Brown, Muriel Gray, Cameron MacNeish and Gordon Ramsay. All of them, well the first three anyway, are keen hillwalkers and could quite possibly have stayed there, but all of them at the same place ... They would have eaten well!
I had wondered where Callop was, and then you pointed to it on your map. I know the Scottish fiddle player Iain MacFarlane, whose parents run the hotel at Glenfinnan. Callop is just down the road and Iain wrote a tune called Gallop to Callop, so I expect it is about one of his friends.
It can be hard escaping the Scottish Midgie, especially on the west coast, ideal if you can move faster than them but hard when you need to be still. Great job on doing the CWT, stunning part of the country & the isolation of being in remote nature is so therapeutic 👍
a lovely walk , look forward to the rest becky ,, keep going
Very good video.
Really good catch your next one
Really enjoying this so far.
Long treks or camps are always my faves to watch. Beautiful scenery but those damn midges are a pain in the bum lol
Nice one Becky, subscribed. Looking forward to part 3!
My heart's in the Highlands, a-chasing the deer;
Chasing the wild-deer, and following the roe,
My heart's in the Highlands, wherever I go . . .
P.S. Liked the burger and fries shot. 👌
Frost is needed to finish of the midges for the season. September is still mild. They will devour anyone in their territory.
Much better off with your Lowa boots . If you wear trail shoes, to prevent wet feet, you should invest in sealskin socks, they are expensive, but you will always have dry feet.Another great video, so thanks.
Becky, this is wonderful
Really enjoyed your vlog. Many landscape photographers would envy you such a beautiful views. You should put out a calendar with some of your images, I would be the first one to order it ....
Well done Becky.
Aw thanks! I’ll have a think about that :)
Fantastic
Becky have you ever had a pair of Altberg walking boots, mine are totally dry even when walking the boggy moors, I recommend them to anyone..... Great channel, I always enjoy your videos. ATB Big Dave Scotland
Stood in a burn for 5 minutes up to my ankles in leather Altberg defenders. Bone dry, also recommend to anyone who cares to listen
@@alexdachs9884 I got mine as recruits get issued them when they enter the RAF, the bonus is they are British made in Yorkshire, what could be better.
Really enjoying watching this video 👍👍👍🇵🇭
Thank you for these.. They keep my so inspired.
I'm so glad!
@@GirlOutdoors Can you tell me something about your solar pack. Eg. weight? Charging efficiency? I'm heading to the Hornstrandir peninsula in July and am undecided between a solar pack and a charging bank.
I love this channel of yours! ❤️❤️
very inspirational But not read HP! That's Really tragic ... great scenery and nice to have company for sections.
Loving this, great series, Adam x
Absolutely brilliant well done becky
The scenery looks amazing, sooooo envious. I was high up looking down on a high lochan in a very hot period and a herd of deer had packed themselves into the lochan to cool down, so I would purify all your water if I were you. Good luck.
HEY GIRL...WOTS UP ...!!!BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VID ....AND AS ALWAYS....GREAT....PLEASE BE CAREFUL AND SAFE...👍👍👍....MOVE UP GIRL....
