What a beautiful video. It had Kraig Adams vibes but you made it your own and that's just lovely (I've seen so many "copies" of his style, which became boring at some point). Your video had something unique. And I loved seeing somebody hiking with his dog. He's so trusty and brave, what a good boy. The part of him crossing the suspension bridge in the beginning was just so cute. "Oh my, what is this shaky ground, I don't like it, but Yens is doing it, so can do it as well." Great you were able to give him 2 days of to do the ladder section. Thank you for sharing.
First of all, thank you for taking the time to write such a big compliment to me! Glad you enjoy me taking my malinois with me. I haven't seen anyone else do that yet. He surely is trained to do those hikes and obeys my commands well otherwise I wouldn't take him with me. Adopted him at 11 months and started hiking with him in the mountains when he was 1,5 years old. Haha, he was indeed a bit skeptical about the bridge and made me get abrasian on my knee when I went back to the camera. He does indeed trust me whenever I do something he follows along. Thanks again for the the comment! I really like creating those videos and whenever I got enough time to do multi day hikes I will take it. I got multiple ones planned for the summer! Stay along for the journey!
Mon père m’a fait marcher 20 km tous les dimanches dans les années 80, je ne comprenais pas pourquoi mais je le faisais…. Au bout de deux ans, il m’a dit qu’on allait aller faire un tour tous les deux dans la montagne, sans ma mère… et on a fait le tour du Mont Blanc, pendant 10 ou 15 jours, je ne sais plus…. Je ne comprenais son but à l’époque, alors que je n’avais que 12 ans…. Mais aujourd’hui, je suis fier d’avoir vécu cette expérience avec lui. On s’est retrouvé face a une tempête au niveau du refuge du col du bonhomme, on ne voyait plus rien, on avait peur, on a trouvé une maison abandonnée ou un couple s’était réfugié…. Quelle souvenir…. Je sais que par la suite il voulait qu’on aille au sommet mais on ne l’a jamais fait…. J’ai aujourd’hui 48 ans. Je suis tellement fier de l’avoir fait avec lui. Je suis heureux d’avoir fait plaisir à mon père par cette aventure, car je l’ai vu, il était heureux
No words,no explanations…just relaxing music and beautiful views…I started watching the videos thinking that I’d watch just a couple of minutes,then another couple then I watched it all. Beautiful and it was cool to see your companion hiking with you,looks a really nice and trusty doggie. Thank you for your video.
This was an amazing video I can't even put it into words! I love that you took you malinois with you, it's so adorable how he's a bit unsure of bridges and crossings but then always chooses to follow along. So beautiful to watch.
Très belle vidéo. Le choix du cheminement en silence, sans parole, seulement porté par une délicate musique, renforce la beauté du paysage et nous plonge dans un état contemplatif et méditatif. Bravo!
This has to be one of the best balanced Mals I have seen in a while. What a joy to be able to bring him along. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. Can't wait to do it on my own one day.
التناغم بين أصوات الطبيعة ومظاهرها يأخذ بمشاعرك وأحاسيسك أبعد بكثير جدا من أن تدمج معها أصوات الموسيقى ولو كانت تلك الموسيقى تبدو عذبة إلا أنها تأخذ بأحاسيسك في غير الاتجاه الذي تأخذك إليه مظاهر الطبيعة واصواتها معا؛ لأن مظاهر الطبيعة وأصواتها تتجلى فيهما يد الخالق وجماله فلا اكتئاب و لا قلق بل السعادة والطمأنينة، شكرا لك على الفيديو الرائع لقد حقق في نفسي كثيرا من ذلك، وعفوا على المداخلة؛ لكن التجربة أكبر دليل.
The fact this mountain has an actual (it seems) free to use lodge for camping that's already very advanced. The "time" markers on the signs telling you on average how long it would take you to walk a certain route... or the ropes put in place on hard to climb bits. There have been some hikes here in the UK that I wish I had at least those ropes tied to poles so I could hold on to. Worst thing is when going up really steep rocks and your foot slips and you feel your heart sinking looking down at about 300 metre drop (or worse)... Well, any length over 50m drop is pretty much deadly by my reckoning.
J'ai eu l'occasion d'en voir, des vidéos de balades, de randonnées, d'escapades, de traversées, d'ascensions. Celle-ci est vraiment belle. Vraiment. Sans un mot.
Bravo, c'est une très belle vidéo. Pas de parole, juste des images et un fond sonore et pourtant on regarde du début à la fin sans s'ennuyer. Et ça doit être génial de randonner avec son chien.
What a journey! I loved this cinematic vlog. Enjoyed so much and thrilled to watch other videos. I can’t hike no more with my current legs, but I did travel along with both of you. Thank you very much!
Les sensations partagées, les moments de vie vécus, le lien de relation que l'on fait avec ton personnage et le chien sont si forts. Merci pour ces moments.
Замечательный фильм! Захватывающие виды природы! Ваша собака-настоящий верный друг. Я всегда восхищалась вот такими одиночными путешественниками. Спасибо.
It is something more than video. I saw a lot of outdoor videos and films but this, as was said is really unique . No unnecessary words, only good calm music with background sound of nature and sound of your shoes and moments which are not cut from reality which are reality. Good job man!
Great photography & video! Love that you took your dog & that he was such a terrific hiker along with you. Priceless when he cut his eyes to the camera when it was raining & the two of you were tent bound. Super job🙋🏼♀️👍🏻🇺🇸
Pas vraiment "en solitaire", vous étiez (presque tout le temps) magnifiquement accompagné! Superbe vidéo, merci! Après les chaînes youtube de Kraig Adams et de Harman Hoek, la vôtre est à présent parmi mes favorites. Encore bravo!
Merci beaucoup pour le compliment ! C'est un grand honneur de figurer parmi vos favoris ! Je me vois en solo car mon chien ne pourrait pas m'aider si je tombais ou me cassais une jambe. Je suis vraiment seule et impuissante à ce moment-là, mais je comprends ce que tu veux dire ;)
Un des plus beaux videos du Mont Blanc que j'ai vu honnêtement. Les prises d'images, la musique, l'aventure avec votre chien sérieux c'est un pure bonheur et merci d'avoir partager cela. Ca fait vraiment du bien et ca nous fait voyager et qui sait peut-etre un jour j'affronterais mes craintes et je le ferais également. Merci encore de ce magnifique partage. Un vrai chef-d'oeuvre.
La vidéo est incroyable ! tes plans de vues sont magnifique : Petit pincement au cœur quand tu as laissé ton compagnon 🙁! Le Sony a fait son travail visuel à la perfection, le rendu des couleurs😍
Great video! Silent, relaxing and parallelly very interesting. Really I am surprised that you could train your cool dog so perfectly. Good job! Waiting for next productions.
Wow, what an incredible journey. You did a great job in capturing the beauty and environment along the way. Your hiking partner added a special touch and was fun to see as well. This would be a hike of a lifetime for me. I think the logistics would be difficult for me not knowing the language for planning out this hike. Take care and hope to see your next adventure.
Chamonix and the Tour du Mt Blanc are almost an English / American colony with tens of thousands of them coming through each year. No worries about the language. People here are used to English speakers. Which unfortunately is not the case for all of France.
I'm an American and I did this hike back in July. If the language barrier is the only thing holding you back, it's the smallest obstacle. This is an extremely popular hike and sees tourists from all over the world and the common language of choice is English. I think the most difficult bit was simply fitness and costs. It's expensive to travel Western Europe.
Superb video, thanks. I like the way that you often allow the camera to dwell on a scenic view just a little longer than most do, so that the viewer has time to take it all in...
Amazing video Yens! I actually did TMB twice and when I see this video it gives me vibes for doing it another time! Great edit! Also love it you are hiking with your dog!
@@YensBastiaens It's not solo when you have such a great companion. I live in the Netherlands, and we went both skiing in winter and often hiking in summer in the Austrian Alps, but unfortunately our dog then went to either family, friends or a place where you could drop your dog for a week or three. Would have loved to go hiking with one or two of the dogs I really grew up with. The last one being a female Rottweiler we had when I was 9 or 10 until my 17th because of bone cancer, she would have loved it. THe other and first dog from my birth to 7 or 8 a Danish dog but the size might have made it more complicated, plus he was more lazy.
Cette vidéo que j'ai eu la chance de découvrir par hasard, m'a fait rêver comme cela ne m'était pas arriver depuis longtemps. J'ai envie de faire la même chose, le Tour du Mont-Blanc, mais en bivouac pour être le plus seul possible et m'offrir ces quelques jours d'isolement dans un environnement majestueux et de toutes beautés, pouvoir méditer dans des endroits sublimes et faire une introspection profonde de ma vie, et pourquoi découvrir de nouvelles choses sur moi-même en même temps que ces paysages incroyables. Le rêve !
Yens, this is an AMAZING video! I’ve seen a lot of videos about TDM, but this one is special and just beautiful! I love that it is so quiet- just like when you hiking and the quietness is all around. Thank you for that. And your dog… I love to see him hiking with you! I have 2 dogs which I take for hikes with me. I’m looking foreward to see other videos of yours.
Just beautiful Yens. I've watched quite a few videos of the TMB - it looks like such an amazing trail. You captured it really nicely! Thanks for sharing and look forward to the next adventure. Best, Will
You can be sure it's worth it. I walked it for the first time in July 2021 and the views are unforgettable. I still live in my thoughts about it. Going it alone is one of the best options you'll get. I'll never forget waiting on the Italian side until dark just to pitch my tent, regufie nowhere.
Thanks for a great video. It's a very beautiful walk, one of the best in Europe. I did the walk about 10 years ago and really loved it. I wish you all the best in your future walks.
Très belles images et super montage! Ça se regarde sans fin Je suis impressionné qu'un si petit sac permette aussi de nourrir le chien, ça serait intéressant d'avoir une vidéo sur la gestion du sac et du chien!
Thanks so much for sharing all this beauty and splendour with us. Your high quality footage is like a meditation. The silence gives one the feeling of doing it oneself. I am inspired to do this hike. I am South African and now Swiss. What month of the year did you and your lovely dog hike this? All the best to you.
Great hike and video. Thank you for sharing. Is September late in the season to hike? It seemed that most of the hostels were empty. Any gear that you wished you had but did not pack and vice versa? Thanks in advance.
Absolutely beautiful video! As much as I like the aestethics of Kraig Adams‘s videos, the sense of adventure was much more present in yours. Also, your dog is great. Thank you very much for your work.
MERCI ! Merci, pour ce beau moment d’évasion. Les prises de vues sont sublimes et particulièrement la nuit au lac des cheserys. J’aime la montage, les animaux, le silence, la musique douce et la solitude … tout y était, tout était parfait pour que je passe un excellent moment. Encore merci 🙏🏻
Votre chien est superbe et adorable. Dans le passé, j’ai adopté un Tervuren, je ne pense pas qu’il m’aurai suivie sur les ponts traversant les torrents 😅 il faut dire qu’il n’avait pas eu un début de vie des plus heureux avec l’humain. C’est toujours un plaisir de voir l’attachement qu’un chien porte à un maître qui le respecte. Merci aussi pour cela.
Hello Yens, we watched your beautiful film tonight and I can’t say we’ve spent a more wonderful half hour in a long time.I don’t know what we enjoyed most, but the combination of the dog, the quiet, the scenery, the sky….made us so happy. When you are young you are so rich in so many things and you have found them all.
ah thanks for the sweet compliment! You are definitely right about the being young thing. I do not realise it as much now but in a decade or two I will definitely realise it.
Bonjour Yens , hello from the Pyrenees ! Thank you so much for your film ! It was a total surprise for me to see for the first time a solo hike film round Mont Blanc....well, solo not exactly because we all loved to see you amazing four-legged pal ! Beautiful partner ! Beautifully filmed video with a serenity feeling all the way. COOL adventure and great filming/editing. I know what it is because I used to make videos of my many hikes in the French Pyrenees...stressful but so exciting ! Once again, BRAVO. It was also emotional for me to see the French/Swiss border col de Balme refuge/hut where I had one of the most delicious fruit cakes ever 3 years ago. Nostalgia, here I come ! All the best, Man for new headings and pixels ! FRANCIS oldie hiker from France. PS: love to your doggie !!!!
I tried to cheat by fastforwarding but every time I did that the scene was beautiful. I also respect that you didint say a word. You really made the video about the trip and not yourself, good job.
Que video mas precioso, el hecho que fuiste con tu perro le agrega un valor único. el sonido de las campanas de viento también. Gracias por compartir tu travesía, fue emocionante.
Kompliment. Sehr schöne Aufnahmen und entspannte Atmosphäre. Ich bin so oft es geht in die Bergen, es hat was magisches finde ich. Ich freue mich wenn junge Menschen solche Erfahrungen machen. Weiter so, aber nie vergessen der Berg ist immer stärker. Komm gut nach Hause
I am 40 seconds in and this is already getting a like and a sub. Wow, great cinematics to show off one of the most beautiful places on earth, what a combo!
So many great comments have already been made about the style of this video, your shots, the editing. I couldn't agree more. A truly gorgeous film. That said, I want to add that I appreciate so much that you have included shots of the beauty of your surroundings that do NOT include you and your good doggo. The shots at 12:00 and 13:57 are a couple examples. I would love to see more of this. 😍 Again thank you for a beautiful film and for sharing your extraordinary adventures in such an artful way! Oh, and I absolutely love your choice of music and the overall peacefulness of your film. 😃
@@YensBastiaens You're most welcome. The compliments are well deserved, and I thoroughly enjoyed your gorgeous video. Looking forward to enjoying more content from your channel. Thank you!
@@homeandgardendiy6363 I happen to be editing 2 videos that I plan to both upload within a few months apart from each other. I also got a 2nd TMB video that I recently captured during autumn and tour des ecrins as well, but those will probably be an upload when the season starts again :)
très joli découverte ! une vidéo à la foi magnifique par ces paysages et apaisante qui donne juste envie de se faire balader à travers les chemins de randonnées . l'idée juste du son et des images sans blabla j'adore ça ! en + en compagnie de ton chien c'est beau ! continue comme ça :) je m'abonne

To wander is such places alongside your best friend. What more could one desire? Life just doesn't get any better.
Pour moi, c'est un vrai chef-d'œuvre ce minidocumentaire, pas un mot mais tellement d'émotions transmisse, j'ai eu l'impression de voyager avec vous
Your walk feels like my soul's journey into the beauty of the creator. Can't thank you enough
Merci pour ce moment d'évasion. Le choix des cadrages, le rythme des prises et du montage sont remarquables. Bravo

Thank you so much!!
That night shot at 04:00 is insane. So beautiful!
Thank you!
@@YensBastiaens What timelapse settings did you use for that if you remember?

Thanks Jens for this inspiring and aesthetic video. And congratulations for your dog who is so well educated !
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love the silent hike genre and yours has the added bonus of the beautiful Malinois. It was a delight, thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
The fact this mountain has an actual (it seems) free to use lodge for camping that's already very advanced. The "time" markers on the signs telling you on average how long it would take you to walk a certain route... or the ropes put in place on hard to climb bits. There have been some hikes here in the UK that I wish I had at least those ropes tied to poles so I could hold on to. Worst thing is when going up really steep rocks and your foot slips and you feel your heart sinking looking down at about 300 metre drop (or worse)... Well, any length over 50m drop is pretty much deadly by my reckoning.
J'ai eu l'occasion d'en voir, des vidéos de balades, de randonnées, d'escapades, de traversées, d'ascensions. Celle-ci est vraiment belle. Vraiment. Sans un mot.
rien est en trop, les transitions, le montage, les prises de vues... magnifique et remarquable de sérénité
Bravo, c'est une très belle vidéo. Pas de parole, juste des images et un fond sonore et pourtant on regarde du début à la fin sans s'ennuyer. Et ça doit être génial de randonner avec son chien.

Haha glad some people mention that I hike with my dog :) You should definitely do it again.
@@YensBastiaens It's not solo when you have such a great companion. I live in the Netherlands, and we went both skiing in winter and often hiking in summer in the Austrian Alps, but unfortunately our dog then went to either family, friends or a place where you could drop your dog for a week or three. Would have loved to go hiking with one or two of the dogs I really grew up with. The last one being a female Rottweiler we had when I was 9 or 10 until my 17th because of bone cancer, she would have loved it.

@@dasisnichtnormal that sounds brilliant Jakub. Definitely something special about hiking solo 👍
The blend of picturesque vistas, ambient audio and ethereal music was really quite something.
Great video. My favorite part is the time lapse at 27:13. I see we had the same inspiration. ;) also the shot at 17:15 is beautiful!
Glad you like those timelapses! I wasn't sure if it added something to the video or not.
The timelapse at 27:13 sadly isn’t real.😕
Thanks for a great video. It's a very beautiful walk, one of the best in Europe. I did the walk about 10 years ago and really loved it. I wish you all the best in your future walks.
Thank you so much

Great hike and video. Thank you for sharing. Is September late in the season to hike? It seemed that most of the hostels were empty. Any gear that you wished you had but did not pack and vice versa?
Thanks in advance.
Absolutely stunning! This is a masterpiece. Loved seeing the doggo out on an adventure as well!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Absolutely beautiful video! As much as I like the aestethics of Kraig Adams‘s videos, the sense of adventure was much more present in yours. Also, your dog is great. Thank you very much for your work.
Glad you like it!
Un simple merci pour ce beau voyage qui nous est permis de faire allonger sur son lit. Reposant et apaisant. Merci encore.
MERCI !
Merci, pour ce beau moment d’évasion.
Les prises de vues sont sublimes et particulièrement la nuit au lac des cheserys. J’aime la montage, les animaux, le silence, la musique douce et la solitude … tout y était, tout était parfait pour que je passe un excellent moment.
Encore merci 🙏🏻
Votre chien est superbe et adorable.
Dans le passé, j’ai adopté un Tervuren, je ne pense pas qu’il m’aurai suivie sur les ponts traversant les torrents 😅 il faut dire qu’il n’avait pas eu un début de vie des plus heureux avec l’humain.
C’est toujours un plaisir de voir l’attachement qu’un chien porte à un maître qui le respecte. Merci aussi pour cela.
Thank you for sharing your journey with your 4 leg brother. Must have been reviling and inspiring to do it together. Good on you.
This was amazing to watch. Cried several times. An absolutely beautiful display. Thank you.
Ty!
Très belle vidéo ! Aucun mots mais beaucoup d'émotions
merci!
Wow. Just wow!! I am so glad to have found this channel. The views are simply stunning. Looking forwards to more videos with your dog!
Welcome aboard!
Thanks for a calm video full of beautiful views (and the night sky time lapse was 💯) ! I like your style of editing 👍
Thanks a lot!
MAGNIFIQUE ! Les paysages bien sûr mais aussi ton travail, ta façon de filmer et de monter 👍
Merci!
Hello Yens, we watched your beautiful film tonight and I can’t say we’ve spent a more wonderful half hour in a long time.I don’t know what we enjoyed most, but the combination of the dog, the quiet, the scenery, the sky….made us so happy. When you are young you are so rich in so many things and you have found them all.
ah thanks for the sweet compliment! You are definitely right about the being young thing. I do not realise it as much now but in a decade or two I will definitely realise it.
Great edit! Enjoyed watching it. Thanks!
Your channel is one of my favorites so this truly means a lot 🙂
What an incredible journey that was superbly captured. Absolutely stunning.
Thank you so much
Thank you, this really has something unique in it. There is enought space, so the viewer has a possability to share that space with you.
I totally agree!
Bonjour Yens , hello from the Pyrenees ! Thank you so much for your film ! It was a total surprise for me to see for the first time a solo hike film round Mont Blanc....well, solo not exactly because we all loved to see you amazing four-legged pal ! Beautiful partner ! Beautifully filmed video with a serenity feeling all the way. COOL adventure and great filming/editing. I know what it is because I used to make videos of my many hikes in the French Pyrenees...stressful but so exciting ! Once again, BRAVO. It was also emotional for me to see the French/Swiss border col de Balme refuge/hut where I had one of the most delicious fruit cakes ever 3 years ago. Nostalgia, here I come ! All the best, Man for new headings and pixels ! FRANCIS oldie hiker from France.
PS: love to your doggie !!!!
Thank you so much Francis, glad to have heard your story :)
The calmness within this video is so relaxing and refreshing. Great video! Beautiful adventure with your dog.
Glad you liked it Emily!
It was one of the best movies I have ever seen in my life. thank you for sharing
Les lyophilisés Adventure Food sont vraiment Excellent 😋
Superbe vidéo avec de magnifiques images !
Thank you for not ruining the beauty with an annoying voice-over like most videos. It's was very nice to watch.
Hiking with your best friend, what a journey! Love your video.
I tried to cheat by fastforwarding but every time I did that the scene was beautiful. I also respect that you didint say a word. You really made the video about the trip and not yourself, good job.
Hahaha cheating is not allowed! Thanks
Hi Yens.
That was beautiful. Lovely footage. You did a very good job showing the beauty of the mountains. Looking forward to seeing more. Take care.
Glad you like my content!
Que video mas precioso, el hecho que fuiste con tu perro le agrega un valor único. el sonido de las campanas de viento también. Gracias por compartir tu travesía, fue emocionante.
Kompliment. Sehr schöne Aufnahmen und entspannte Atmosphäre. Ich bin so oft es geht in die Bergen, es hat was magisches finde ich. Ich freue mich wenn junge Menschen solche Erfahrungen machen. Weiter so, aber nie vergessen der Berg ist immer stärker. Komm gut nach Hause
Danke!
you are not alone, there's the beautiful dog with you! the other animals are like us
Merci pour le partage et également je tiens à t'encourager pour le travail réalisé au niveau du montage vidéo !
Merci beaucoup yannick!
Thanks for sharing! I really loved the video because of the very calming style. The landscape speaks for itself. Great trip!
Glad you enjoyed it!
awesome quality! Love how your dog is truly part of the team, carries it's own share on his back
haha yes he definitely needs to do that
Video clarity is superb, nice soundtrack...
It inspires me also to go for hiking ❤
Go for it :)
I am 40 seconds in and this is already getting a like and a sub. Wow, great cinematics to show off one of the most beautiful places on earth, what a combo!
Thank you so much!
C'est une vidéo relaxante. Les prises de vues sont très soignées, c'est beaucoup de travail lors de la randonnée. Merci pour cette excellente vidéo.
merci!
I went there in Feb, wow it's very different, snow covers all the mountains, but I more like this, green color full with screen!!! Mi piace
非常的棒⋯⋯喜歡這種沒有對白的貼近大自然的呼吸⋯⋯還有一隻忠心可愛的狗⋯⋯他跟主人一樣非常的寧靜⋯⋯
Hermosos lugares, con tu mejor y noble amigo... tu perro. Son momentos que tu mascota y vos jamas van a olvidar. Felicidades!
Love your channel. Amazing videography and beautiful scenery. You and Harmen Hoek are the best hiking videographers on TH-cam!
So many great comments have already been made about the style of this video, your shots, the editing. I couldn't agree more. A truly gorgeous film. That said, I want to add that I appreciate so much that you have included shots of the beauty of your surroundings that do NOT include you and your good doggo. The shots at 12:00 and 13:57 are a couple examples. I would love to see more of this. 😍 Again thank you for a beautiful film and for sharing your extraordinary adventures in such an artful way! Oh, and I absolutely love your choice of music and the overall peacefulness of your film. 😃
Thanks for taking the time to write such a detailed compliment!
@@YensBastiaens You're most welcome. The compliments are well deserved, and I thoroughly enjoyed your gorgeous video. Looking forward to enjoying more content from your channel. Thank you!
@@homeandgardendiy6363 I happen to be editing 2 videos that I plan to both upload within a few months apart from each other. I also got a 2nd TMB video that I recently captured during autumn and tour des ecrins as well, but those will probably be an upload when the season starts again :)
Nice! Meanwhile I'm going to take a look back through your archives. 🙂
你拍的真棒，感謝你讓我看到那麼美的風景，就像自己去徒步旅行一樣
:)
très joli découverte ! une vidéo à la foi magnifique par ces paysages et apaisante qui donne juste envie de se faire balader à travers les chemins de randonnées . l'idée juste du son et des images sans blabla j'adore ça ! en + en compagnie de ton chien c'est beau ! continue comme ça :) je m'abonne
Merci!
Magnifique vidéo ça donne envie de faire ce tour, merci pour ce beau partage..😊
