Outstanding! What an amazing hike. Loved the goats too. 😊
Hi Susan thank you so much this is one of our all time favourites! The goats were the stars of the show! Thank you for watching and commenting! Have a great weekend ❤️
Spain's best hike
2ow.
Congratulations 🎉
So happy to see you guys ❤
Thanks Aishu 👍❤️
Glad to have tagged along in a virtual sense. ❤
Lovely having you tag along mr Brilltastic 😘❤️
Black, black or black. Such a beautiful hike. Those tunnels were really low. I bet Jilly walked upright through them. The power of the water is amazing. A goat bridge twirl 😂. I think a linear hike which you have to retrace your steps is great because you never really absorb the views behind you. This way you get two hikes for the price of one. Loving the goats too. They all seem to love Nick's sun lotion or sweat. Maybe a mixture of both. The edges over the gorges give me a Lemming feeling. Thanks for sharing. I loved this one.
🤣🤣 to the Lemming feeling! Even 5’9” Jilly had to stoop in some places! very licky goats them 🤣 Cheers Chris have a great week ahead 👍
You two climb the most impressive of mountains! This was absolutely breathtaking. Those goats are adorable 😂
Thank you Keith!! 😁 the goats were the star of the show 👍
Beats walking around our park
Sigh, coming back to expensive UK is a real kick in the teeth sadly.
A double goat twirl, fantastic. Amazing trek. Stunning scenery. 🧸🐻
Aaww thanks Ellie and Martin hope you are both well 👍❤️
This video is absolutely stunning! The breathtaking scenery and the challenging trail make it clear why it's considered Spain's best hike. Your footage beautifully captures the rugged beauty and adventure of the region. Thank you friend for sharing this amazing experience!
Thank you for your amazing comment have a great week ahead 👍❤️
There you go singing a song I don't know again LOL!
its Marshmello and Kane Brown “put some miles on it”, its quite a new song but it became the song of this holiday for all the driving!
Hello Nick and Jill, loved the view from your apartment, it was a good choice with the black T shirt. Ha Ha, Wow lovely scenery, Nice bridge over the river. The walk cut through the rock was amazing, the goats were cute. Billy goat Gruff on the bridge and a twirl or two. The meal looked very good, Great hike with beautiful scenery, thank you for sharing , take care x Julie and Tony x
Thanks guys hope you have had a great weekend 👍❤️
Now that was fun fun fun all the way through. Stunning views. Goat twirls steak n chips and abandoned exploring. What else can you cram into a video. Briliant. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️
Thank you so much Watto and Kim. Tbh, it was this walk and this walk alone that we started youtube. Being amateur photographers it was always a struggle to try and capture our holiday memories for posterity. Photos don’t do it justice, hopefully this does so a little better, Jill’s favourite hike on the planet, it’s in my top three. Great eateries at both sides where you can have decent food and drink and get change from a tenner either side!
Wow wow wow!! What a fantastic walk!! Bit high and dodgy at times but what a fantastic achievement!! Loved the goats.... you are so brave walking there and back. Well, Done Gen X, you guys Rock!!
Thanks so much! 😊 hope you are both well have a lovely weekend ❤️
@GENerationXplorers thank you yes we are off tomorrow to a Balloon festival!! Hope it's Dry! Enjoy your weekend too 😊
@gatersontour Happy Ballooning fingers crossed for better weather than today! Raining and foggy where we are 😔❤️
Guys that opening scene was sooo beautiful and the place you stayed was lovely. Nick yes wear a black t shirt today 😄. This place was stunning and nice to hear the sound of the river as you walked. Gorgeous day but we definitely prefer cold days for hiking high mountains !
I can see why its Jills favourite walk, I loved those tunnels with the noisy river. The channel first with the goat walking over the bridge doing the twirl was fabulous haha, you have friends for life in them 😄👏
The food you had looked so good and a good price too.
I can see why this is the best hike in Spain and that green bridge footage over the gorge was so good. Loved this one ~ Anna ❤👍
Our main mission when starting our channel was to go back and document this walk with it being my favourite, mission complete! Watching it makes me want to do it again 🤣 thanks for your lovely comment hope you and Alf have as lovely weekend ❤️
LOVE the black T shirt! Good choice! And I also love how you had to duck walking through the doorway, Nick. Now that I've met you in person, I know you are tall!! haha
oh I banged my head so many times on those doorways whilst filming. I never walk naturally when doing those walk and talks and forgot to duck so many times! 😵💫
Oh gosh I am gobsmacked- so gorgeous. Took me back a bit to our 'super fit younger people' time. Our sort of walks/hikes. Stunning doesn't even cover it. That goat ( those goats) gorgeous. Loved the one at the end too. The views were amazing. At times some narrow parts but do-able when not busy like you mentioned. The water gushing through that small gap. Powerful. The meal looked very appetizing, What an Awesome day. Feeling motivated. 🤣🤣🤣🤣! Thank you, you fabulous people you 😎. What an enjoyable watch this was. 🩷🙏🇳🇱🙋♀🥝
Aaww thanks Anita ❤️😘
What a wonderful way to wake up! It looked idyllic. Fantastic hike! I loved the tunnels carved out of the mountain and all the fabulous bridges. Ooh, a bit of a sheer drop! I think my knees would be a bit shaky! The scenery was stunning and dramatic. I was impressed you got the goat to do a twirl on the bridge! Haha, "You've seen it here first!" 😂 Aw, the little goats are so friendly. Gorgeous gorge views at the end. Thanks for a fun and enjoyable video, Nick and Jill ❤❤
Thanks Julie and Lucy hope you are both well! Have a lovely weekend ❤️
Thank you for touring us around to such a beautiful and wonderful place, the scenery there is indeed breathtaking! Great hiking adventure nice seeing the beautiful rockformation! Wow! I really amazed this place thank you for sharing have a wonderful weekend awesome video!
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment 👍❤️
WOw!!! Loving more of Spain, agree with Jill, the birdsong and that view is just everything. This has to be up there with one of the most incredible hikes i've seen you guys conquer! Loving the trail and the paths, so scenic. Although quite scary drops, love the nature and the landscape of those canyons and mountains. This was truly EPIC!!!! Wow
thank you Alessa 🙏 sending you mega love this weekend. we have done this hike a zillion times. we actually started CZcams for our own benefit to try and record our very best holiday moments and this is the one we wanted to record the most. whilst our channel has started to pander to the CZcams requirements this epitomises the kind of content we want to put out. god knows to make this video float, I will have to sell my soul. Ive had some ideas (zero of which actually interest me), here goes, “LABOUR WHAT HAVE WE DONE?” thumbnail of Starmer with red eyes and a burning British flag behind him. next one “WORST RESULT SINCE 1830”, a picture of the sad Sunak with a video of all the failures the Tories have had over the last five years. or “BRITISH POLITICS IS BROKE” 14% voted change and they only won 3 seats. well I’m going for the latter to keep this holiday channel alive.. have a great weekend 😂
good evening nick and jill. thank you for the pictures jill they are awesome, just like you mate. have a wonderful weekend, nick and jill.
You too Kris 👍❤️
I'm thoroughly impressed-great job!😍😍🥰🥰🥰🥰
Aaww thanks 👍
This walk is stunning. Magnificent. I can see why you've done it more than once. I love a good goat. That one was awesome. Agua con gas in Spain. Or was it cerveza por favor? Don't get me started on fizzy waters though. Love 'em. My absolute favourite is the French Badoit, you can get that in parts of Spain too. If we were asked what was the most successful parenting thing you've done is, we've raised the kids to drink water. One won't drink fizzy and the other won't drink still. 🤣 They do love a coke or fanta or anything sugary but that only happens rarely, once or twice a year or when we are on holiday. 😂 Ooh, steak and chips. Yummo. It wasn't one of the goats was it?
How much is a taxi back? Asking for a friend. 😂
Goat riding for the win!
Fabulous video!
🤣 Shane you are funny! We always love getting your comments you do make us smile! Hope you are having a great week ❤️
took me a minute to pick, but i agree with the shirt choice. 😂this place was gorgeous. so cool crawling through by the waterfalls. i kind of expected you to squish the teeny people or nick you could've gotten jilly there, "i'm squishing your head, i'm squishing your head!" instead you had to show off your jumping skills. braggart! 😆 watch those steep edges, no falling for you two cuties! i agree, jilly is amazing! ok, you're not going to believe me, but i saw the goats thought, it would be hilarious if somehow a goat twirl and then you did! dying over here. dying. speed walkers, you two. good deal on some good looking food! truly, goat whisperers you became on this trip. that descent was the icing on the ice lolly. stop being so entertaining, my comments are stupid long. 🛴❤
As are mine 😅
Anne you do crack us up always love your comments (yours too Joseph and Peter 😉) Hope you had a great July 4th Anne and ya’ll are having a great weekend ❤️
Beautiful bridge twirl, Jill! I couldn't go on the bridge twirl with Nick because I would be tossing my cookies! ;-)
But those mountains are gorgeous!
very great use of American English there Dara. I might have to use that down the line 👍
That really was an amazing hike! So varied! I love the tunnel bits and the bridges. But hearing about people falling off the edge of that trail with the steep dropoff FREAKS ME OUT!
OK, I LOVE the "then and now" photo comparison ;-)
Looks like Nick is drinking urine in that massive water bottle!
But the best bit was the GOATS!!! Adorable! And I CANNOT believe you got him to do two bridge twirls!!
those goats are the real highlight. I think they must have heard on the goatvine that on our several previous visits they have persuaded us to part with our packed lunch!
@@GENerationXplorers that's funny!
What a fantastic hike, it's too far & difficult for me but beautiful scenery, loved the goat twirls! 😂
This is why this platform is so great! You can do the hike with us from the comfort of your sofa 🤣👍 thank you for taking the time to watch and commenting 👍❤️
Hi Nick and Jill. Fantastic footage, those walking trails were simply amazing. Thanks so much for sharing. 👌😊
Thanks so much Paul ❤️
🤭🐐😁😁Liked and subscribed 😂 and am exhausted and holding onto my walls honestly watching you two walking up those mountain cliffs 🥰 twirling with the goat, on a bridge probably the first I've ever seen😜 They were very 👅 I must say😲 After that meal I would probably wanted to take a nap not walk up the big hill and then another 3 hours! Ohhh to be young again and do my life over🤣🤣Oops I forgot I can live it through you two! By the way I love your choice of the black shirt today Nicholas🤣🤣🤣 You crack me up!!! 😘 Great morning for me because I couldn't find your video yesterday...finally found it today😉 Thank you CZcams ! 🤨
Aaaww thanks lovely lady! 🤣😘
Wow! Amazing location and beautiful hike. Love the energy you both bring to your videos. 😊❤
Thanks so much guys 👍❤️
Oh, this place is insanely beautiful guys! Rock formations are just spectacular, I expected you to fly a drone here because the place is perfect for that. Trail looks simply unreal! 👏👏👏
Hi Ervin thank you it is on the drone list of places but won’t be for awhile, well until Nick learns how to fly the damn thing with out crashing or loosing it 🤣 you would love this trail ❤️ have a great weekend x
Oh wow..those view of the mountains is stunning!!! Great location. You two are great together-love your energy. The food looks good too. I enjoyed watching your view.
Thank you so much 🤗
Long awaited part 2 - Hmm Black or Black .. tough choice … Such lush scenery…What a gorgeous gorge ! That’s great walking ..Head protection needed !! No problem for Hatman .. Dinner dinner dinner ….Yodelling territory … That’s some drop … And some view ! It’s like something out of Lord of the Rings … You gotta be kidding…Goats too !! Trip Trap and all that ..Half Time :.. Coke from a bottle !! Dead posh and the food looked great ..and fab value too..that’s a climb on a full stomach… and that’s a hell of a walk .. would love to do this …This walking video is quite possibly the GOAT !!😂….Thanks for sharing this Guys
🤣🤣 you are funny cheers Lord & Lady Cruise hope you’ve had a great weekend ❤️
Loved this vlog guys. You are so fit to finish that hike in the time you did. What fabulous scenery. Thanks for sharing...another place to put on the list. Also loved your end note to any goats tuning in!!!
Thanks guys definitely a must if you are in the area, highly recommend it although it’s quite a distance from any cruise ports 🤣😂❤️
Wow! Beautiful and awesome scenery! You hiked while looking at this beautiful scenery! Thanks for sharing!
Hello! Greetings again from 100tour KOREA! Stay in touch, my dear friend! See you! Have a great day!
Thanks you too 👍❤️
So nice that they named their province after me! Goat bridge twirl! That is the absolute best. Goat squatters too cool. I can see why you like that hike so much, but it needs a huge waterfall dropping off those cliffs. Lol.
the Province of the Waterfall Mad Man, Leon the Great! 👍 it certainly could do with a really powerful waterfall at the half way mark, there were some tricklers on the opposite face but nothing to write home about! have an awesome weekend!
Wow what an amazing hike with awesome scenery. Some of the areas were a bit scary to me looking down. Cool ruins with squatters 😅. Sweet little goats! I hope you both had an amazing trip. Nick & Jilly thank you for sharing your adventure 👍😊🇨🇦
Thanks Christine👍 it was one of our all time favourite trips ❤️
You really got a beautiful Air BnB 👍. The scenery is a breathtaking views ❤️. 13:48 this pathway is stunning and scary which im scared from heights 😉. 19:20 that’s deserved after whole day of hiking hmmm yummy 😋. Have a great weekend 👍❤️🇩🇪.
Cheers Kenn you too ❤️
Wow i’m so jealous watching you guys. We visited Barcelona Spain. But wish to visit another parts of the country. Enjoy and stay safe. Good luck 🍀
Thank you! Spain has many beautiful parts 👍❤️
Hi my friends Jill and Nick very nice video , great adventure and Beautiful place, ruins, 😅 24:08 follow you 😅,😂😂 very funny 🤣 26:03 cave and this bridge 😍😍😍 have a great weekend 😃
Thank you so much 😁
You'll have to get some new tops, Nick! 🤣🤣Maybe red for Labour? Congratulations! Beautiful hike here in Spain, Nick and Jill. Love the raging river though the mountain! Stunning trail and teeny people. Nice jump, Nick! It does look dangerous with all the dropoffs. Only fools would try biking it in the dark! Nice there's no crowds while you were there. Nice exclusive "goat bridge tour!" 2:45? No, 2 dead bodies with us out by 45 goats! But, it looks like we could drive though and meet you for lunch. Then you could have wine and return back with us! Loved the stroll.
Red for Labour (boo) 😂 there are very strict signs up about no biking, aside from the danger to themselves the damage to the pathway would be immeasurable. I do believe it’s the first case of its kind in Spain where Air Rescue have taken the case to the courts and fined the individual they had to rescue. very selfish behaviour to put so many others at risk, I hope the case has stopped others doing the same. we did manage it very quickly. ive always thought that route could be done one way irrespective of fitness if people took it easy and planned for lots of stops for hydration and food. a nice meal the other side and a jeep back to the start! hope you have an awesome weekend ♥️🇺🇸
The place, that you're staying at looks amazing. Cool, that the path goes through the cliff. The view along the way looks stunning.
It really is! Cheers Thomas 👍❤️
Wow 😮 เป็นภูเขาที่น่าทึ่ง ขอบคุณที่พาเราไป 👍👍👍
Thank you xxx
First 👍
Thank you Stephen. Catch up with you and Hilary this weekend xx
@@GENerationXplorers Sunday evening would be good 👍
Super Great video my friends Jill and Nick...always enjoying your content and your moments on this great world.....have a great weekend
Thank you! You too! ❤️
You are near me, Cantabria. Great place.❤❤❤
yes we were had a great time back in September 👍
Nice place for eating 👍🏾🤩
I enjoy saighseeing around
Thank you for the adventure 🙏🏽😊
Have a great trip
Thank you we had a fabulous time 👍
Catching up ❤ beautiful views. I littlw too close to the edge for me
🤣😬🫣
The place where you stayed is awesome. Stunning scenery of the canyon you’ve hiked. The goats are so cute 🐐 And a great meal at the end 👍🤗🥰
Ah thank you so much, that Airbnb is amazing. It’s €51 a night for anyone, and the hosts are amazing. It’s called “Andreas place, Frama”, a mile out of Potes, Cantabria. If you can’t find it just DM us on insta or email and we will send you all the details 👍
Wow guys your production levels are now a different level what a adventure and that music track you use has officially become your own iconic theme tune.love the goat twirls onthe bridge . and around every corner something was happening epic work guysx
thank you Simon. Trying something different with these travel vlogs in that hope that it might garner more interest. rather than us capturing a place or a mountain trying to go for more of a “day in the life” type of feel. hopefully this will give any new subscribers a better feel of what we are all about (its a long shot mind). taking my drone out for its second flight today. originally thought that I’d be turning out Ervinslens type content in no time after watching his content all these years.. not a chance. my first test indoors I flew it into a lamp and my first flight outdoors I lost it for almost the entire duration of the battery. a week of night terrors later and I’m ready to try again. this is going to be a long long journey..
It looks so peaceful my lovelies! How lovely to be on this journey with you? ❤
Aaww thanks Marie lovely having you along ❤️
Your air b&b really really looks amazing, what a great find. that is one stunning walk, loved the goat over the bridge, doing a bridge twirl :-) loved it. Really stunning hike :-)
Yeah the Airbnb was amazing. €51 a night, (£43 a night) that comes with fibre broadband for everyone, welcome basket, room for four people and so many extras. I couldn’t find anywhere in the UK that could match that at double the price sadly. Those goats were lovely and we are already planning a trip back to see them. Have an awesome weekend Cara.
Hi Nick and Jill
There are so many challenges on this hiking trail. First, haha I cannot tell if Nick is giant or the accommodation has low ceiling? hahah You almost duck your head. hhah
Stunning landscape and rock formation. Bridges, ragged rock tunnel, a roofless old building.....there are so many surprises in the gorge. Jill pointed the hiking trail path ahead..OMGoodness I felt already exhaustion..hahha The views at the summit really pays off, hooray! I can still hear you guys' tough breaths, hahaha. wow, goats are very friendly even though I thought about their attack..I still wonder why they lick Nick so much...
What are those red containers??? 16:07 I hope they are not portable gasoline tanks???
You two must be exhausted by the time completed the today's hike. Superb!!!!
My comment kept disappearing...hope it delivered to your door.
those low beams? dont get me started Ms Kayak! I hit me head on those so many times at one point I chipped a tooth! I’m 6’3” so if I didn’t time my ducks I would hit my head. very hard to do when talking to the camera (so many painful fails) 😱 yes im still not sure why those goats took such a liking to me, they still haven’t left me a comment, I hope they at least subbed! thanks for your perseverance with the comment, loved it. you guys would love it there, hope your having an awesome week ♥️
The scenery is breathtaking ❤ looked liked an amazing hike too. Great video guys 🥰🥰
Thanks so much! 🐈 🐈⬛❤️
Good morning. my sincere congratulations for a perfect video.
Thank you very much 👍
Definitely one beautiful trail (the scale of that gorge was epic ) sensory over load indeed 👌🏻
But the goats 🐐 where the best (I love em 🤠🙏🏼)
Fab
ATB Simon
thank you Simon, we certainly love the goats too. think it was our fifth time on that trail and we already have plans to revisit it later in the year! some walks really get under your skin.
The scenery on that hike was indeed fabulous! I can see why so many people would want to do it, although I'm not sure that August in Spain would be the best time to hike it!
Yeah you are right don’t think we could visit July & August much too hot for hiking 🥵👍❤️
Hey guys, we wanted to catch this before we go away. Looks stunning!!! Maybe go with the black one 😂😂. Ah, more singing, excellent 😂. Free parking, good stuff! Wow, what views, it really is beautiful. Although if we were there too, think we’d just find a bar and wait for you, oh hang on, a gorge walk, that sounds like it may be flat, we could handle that. Love the walking through the rocks, reminds us of a place in Germany we really want to visit. I take it back, so far we’d love to do this walk. Ok, may be a bit scared of that sheer drop. Blimey, how much did air rescue charge??!!😮. You don’t like water Nick? You need to come to our place, we have lovely Welsh water here!! And yes, Jill is amazing!! Think we’d probably get a jeep 😂. Love the goats, especially the bridge twirling goat….mmm tasty leg Nick. Yey, bridge twirl!!!! Excellent!!!! 😂😂 it really is CZcams gold guys!! Sit down stop, don’t blame you. The abandoned building looked cool. Finally a lovely food stop, what views. You didn’t go for wine??!!!…you’ve changed 😂. The chips and steak look great!! The egg looks good too. Combo bite, mmmm! Good price too, although don’t know if we could be bothered with the walk back. Those licky goats are ace. Fair play, that descent looks incredible. More bridge twirling goats haha. Can’t wait for more goat related content!!! Haha a bronze goat 😂 what a long day. Tapas and wine, good choice. Really loved that x
Mmm, Welsh water that does sound nice, I was partial to Lake District water in my youth. At one point I could easily distinguish the difference between tap water from different regions. But decades of alcohol and an aversion to how bad day old water is has put me off the stuff for life. Nothing will kill me faster than a glass of water, just leave it for a day or two or pour it from a SW tap. Yeah the jeep, well this is one of the place we would really love you to see 🙏 we have done this five times will do it fifty more even on the same trip, im quite excited to try out the jeep.if you have the numbers it starts to get affordable to travel back in luxury. Was always one of the things I wanted my Mum to do before her mobility drastically deteriorated. You guys could take this in your stride. I’ve witnessed you doing ten times the mileage in London these last few weeks! (Great vids btw) we have been in the past (ashamed now) the peeps that needed air rescue to rescue us after a salad and a gallon of cheap wine at the half way point! 😱 thanks guys, have a lovely time in Rome. All our love, best wishes and prayers go with you lovely pair xx
Great views Jill and Nick. But not sure I would walk there 😅. So afraid of hights!
Haha, great color choice of tshirts. Black can never go wrong.
Awwww, think the goat fell in love with him too. Can always add a new qualification on a cw as a Goat Trainer 😉.
At least you both had awesome exercise that day.
Have a wonderful weekend both xx 🦇🖤🖤🖤🖤🦇
🤣 good point! thanks Sanniz you too 🖤🖤
Your accommodation is in such a wonderful location, I could just sit on that balcony all day! What a beautiful part of Spain. I have driven through the Pyrenees many years ago, but have never visited this wonderful area before. I'm shocked that you found free parking lol 🤣🤣never in any doubt! What a great hike and a good track for it. You found a pretty place for a delicious lunch too. Cool but noisy mountain goats, they are also quite cute.
thanks Nettie. ah yes the drive through the Pyrenees is spectacular too, not too far away from where we were too. in fact we drove from the Pyrenees to this area in just one day on a previous trip. we were blessed with free parking the entire trip thankfully! definitely the goats are the stars of the show. we shall return to see them again! have an awesome weekend.
Great hike and scenery. Black seems like a good choice 😂😂😂
🤣👍 cheers guys hope you are both well and had a great July 4th 🇺🇸🎉
Wow this place was gorgeous 😊 some close to the edge views 😅 haha Jill racing ahead across the canyon haha 😂 well done jumping across Nick. Very cool walking through the mountain side tunnels it must have been something to create the path. My legs sure would be wobbling on this one but it does look a well kept path. Wouldn’t like it when it’s crowded if it forces you to walk close to the edge. Looks like you both had a lovely quiet day for it. Aww check out the goats very cool haha goat bridge twirl awesome. The goats were all fab! Brilliant hike and video 😊 well deserved ice lollies
thanks Yasmin 👍
Goooat of the week😂 and not tha one you were riding Jill lol.🤭 lots of love as always guys xx
😁 thanks Rachel love back at ya ❤️
Danke für den tollen Beitrag Interessant, vielen lieben Dank dafür 👍 wünschen dir ein schönes Wochenende, vielen Dank für gegenseitige Unterstützung, ❤ Siggi & Anne ❤️
Thanks guys 👍❤️
Hi Nick and Jill
Your accommodation looks lovely 😊
Great choice of t shirts Nick 😂😂😂
Free parking = perfect
Love the singing in the car and as you walked round.
We're not surprised it's your favourite walk Jill 😊
Why would you attempt that on a bike and in the dark....
The tunnels are great to walk through.
14 miles, no way Boo would do that 😂😂😂😂
Love all the bridge twirling as you went round, the goat made us laugh. Great exclusive guys 😂😂😂
The views were stunning.
Security on the house and the squatters 😂 it is in a fantastic location though.
Who doesn't love a branded a glass when having a coco cola.
Great food review again Jill. Got to do a combo bite. Good value too.
The goats were cute. Think you found some new friends there Nick. Hope they all subscribed 😂😂😂😂
Another fab video guys, as usual made us laugh
Think the thought of wine and tapas would have kept us going too.
You did it in good time both ways.
Those ice lollies were well deserved .
Looking forward to the next video 😊
Aaaww guys you always leave such fab comments! Thank you! you guys would love this walk but you would need a carrier for Princess Boo! hope you are all having a great week much love ❤️
I would hate driving on those twisting, turning narrow roads, especially as I would be staring at the stunning scenery instead of the road. Walking under that rock could be a challenge and I remember poor Mrs Metalman getting a bump on the head when we were in Whitescare Caves many years ago when I 'goosed' her, when she was ducking down under rock :o(. Those cave sections must have been welcome relief from the sun and the views were amazing, when you got out into the open. Plenty of hydrating needed, especially on a 14 mile round trip but I was shocked looking at Nicks water - was he drinking his own😫....oh, its apple juice 🙃very nice and refreshing too, to be fair. After that climb that was a big and long decent into Poncebos but ever worse on the way back.....how much was jeep again🤔. Steak, egg and potatoes would have done me just fine as I was waiting for my jeep to arrive 😋 but have to say that price for the food was amazing! Nice way to finish with a couple of ice cool ice creams, cheers Alan
Oh no, that’s a classic Metalman memory. Love that, I think we’ve probably done the same thing too several times 😂 that Airbnb though had low hanging door frames. Every single time I walked through them whilst filming or watching back footage I banged my head, there is a lesson to be learnt about filming and hiking. We either get lost, fall over or sustain head injuries! We do make a joke on a subsequent video about what I’m drinking! Great minds Alan. It was plain store water mixed with a bit of apple juice, almost tolerable. I can drink fizzy water but still water I have a real aversion to. I think I’ve just had too many unpleasant experiences with still water that has been exposed to oxygen for too long. I just fully appreciate how bacteria forms in Oxygen and still Water, not a fan, or of taking the risk. Yeah the jeep is €50 per person and they won’t set off unless it carries at least 5 people. I suppose you could wait for other jeep riders at high season but otherwise it would be a very steep price. That route cuts through the highest mountains in Northern Space, it’s a MASSIVE national park. To drive from one side to the other of this route would most likely take up to six hours. I always wanted to take my Mum on this walk, wish I had, a few years ago she would have been capable, one way, to do this route and I would have gladly paid for the jeep back. One of my biggest regrets to be fair. Her mobility is pretty bad now. I can remember one time we were the tools almost needing air rescue. Did the hike one way. On,y had a salad at the opposite side but enjoyed a litre of super cheap Spanish knock out wine. Almost fell off the route several times. Never again! Thanks for watching 👍
Love this beautiful scenery and how amazing is this gorge and bridges, tunnels that you walk through. A well formed trail. Yep, The Divine Gorge it is Jill. Cute little goats 🐐 very friendly, probably very used to people.
Great cracking views Nicholas ❤
Yep! Looks like squatters have taken over that derelict house 😂🐐
Nice lunch guys. Simple food, simple flavours, delicious 😋
I think those goats were licking the sweat off your skin 😅
What an epic hike 😊loved it, something I would definitely have done ✅🐐❤️🙏🏽👍🏽🤠
thank you Joseph, yes I think this was our fifth time on this route and it won’t be our last. its Jills favourite and its in my top three for sure. the very first time we did it we did it from Poncebos to Cain. Poncebos is quite near civilisation and other busy mountain towns and villages but arriving at Cain (population 69) which is in the middle of nowhere with its eateries is really moving. there were bagpipers playing on our arrival and it was just one of those really magical moments that you go back to recapture time and time again. on previous visits I have fed my pack lunch to the goats (they will pretty much eat anything), maybe word had been passed down to look out for me? Divine Gorge is a beautiful name for it. next week is the day we visited Pelayo’s hide out in the caves where the Virgin Mary appeared and the battle of Covadonga took place marking the start of the Reconquista. its a very moving place. hope you both have an awesome weekend. love to you both ♥️
@@GENerationXplorers thank you 🙏🏽 and loved this walk ❤️ have an awesome weekend xo
wow beautiful place...Amazing trek. Stunning scenery
Thanks for visiting
Hi guys loved the start we were in tears I would go with the black one 😆. What a beautiful place although I wouldn't manage those heights and definitely no bridge twirls. I got a bit scared just watching in places 😳. The goats 🐐 are cool especially the one on the bridge great you got him to do the twirls you must be a goat whisperer. The food was good value the steak looked very tasty 😋 the combo bite made us very hungry. Glad you saw the goats on the way back they definitely liked the taste of Nick, Dave has that effect on dogs 😆. Wonder if they were doing the twirl after you had gone. A fabulous video a big 👍 from us. Hope you have a fantastic weekend Best wishes Dave and Dawn ❤️ p.s hope you have had the goats subscribed and liked to you.
🤣🤣 it’s fun thinking they will still be doing bridge twirls thanks guys hope you are having a nice weekend ❤️
Brilliant...would love to see Nick in a white T shirt...Not sure about the singing?...it was singing wasn't it?...those bridges was made for twirling...The chips sound Chiptastic......steak,
eggs and jockey whips...fantastic..10 out of 10 for the walk...
thank you so much Steven and Karen. yes it was pretty bad singing to be fair. a new song, but even given longer to practice we would have probably still made a mess of it. it was our terrible cover of Marshmello miles on it. worth a google, we made a right hash of it 😂😂
Nice looking Air B n B 👌 Nice choice of clothes 😂 Beautiful drive & scenery . Nice bit of free parking 👍 Good Bridge twirl . Cool looking trail to walk tunnels bridges crazy twirling goats high up too in parts. Good bit of urbex what a location. Nice food you had. Wow 14-mile hike hat's off to you both . Well done reaching the top 👏 Thanks for sharing with us Generation Xplorers Generation Xperiences
God knows how many Chinese children have stubs for fingers making those cotton t-shirts from Primarni! 😂😂 it’s an awesome trek. Uncovered my inner Adzey on that tiny urbex, definitely channeling the best urbex channel on the planet! Thanks for amazing support and inspiration
@@GENerationXplorers Thanks for taking us along with you what a place too explore high up there 😀 Good video 10 /10 👍👍
What a hike that was out and back - great paths and views all the way and you seemed to be well shaded by the gorge - definitely one to do when there aren't many people about, though I'm not sure about your bonding with the goats!! Regards, Ashley
Many thanks Ashley! The goats were the star of the show 🤣 have a great week 👍
Very nice video my friend
Thank you very much ❤️
Beautiful trek!! I love the tunnels, and they have viewing windows! That is such a gorgeous landscape, and the canyon is amazing 😮 cool tree at 11:07. Who do the goats belong to? That goat in the window of the building 😂 How great to get a nice meal before heading back out on the trail. Good thing Nick brought his black shirt! I also think that goat will subscribe! Fantastic trek you two! 😊
Thanks Princess we have no idea who the goats belong to maybe a farmer from either Cain or Poncebos but they belong to someone as they have bells! hope you had a great July 4th and are having a great weekend 👍
Northern Spain looks absolutely breathtaking!! Love the place you stayed at. Driving up the Leon Mountain pass - WOW! What beautiful views. You find the most beautiful places to hike. Seeing the map going through the gorge, wow quite the hike! Tunnels, bridges, ginormous rocks you saw it all as you hiked. Love the giant rock photo opt and flashback! This place is so amazing. "Plain water, the animal" LOL. Awe what a sweet little goat friend (Nick you are always making friends on your hikes!!) Wow those ruins! Love the squatters they have lol!! Mmm a tasty chip. The steak looks good too! Awe goat kisses on the way down hahaha! All these wonderful goat friends you've made, looks like you are also a pair of Disney prince and princesses haha! Amazing video as always Nick & Jill! and LOVE the goat related content hahaha love your adventures :)
Aaaww thanks guys! No I am sorry only the one Disney Prince and Princess pair can be had and that’s your guys title! Nick was close to Dr Dolittle and his Goat whispering 🤣 was a great hike this and this was one of our most favourite trips! glad we can share it with all you special folk 😘❤️
@@GENerationXplorers lol!! Dr Doolittle! 😂 love it!!! That works too hehe!!
@TheAdventuresofMegGreg 👍🤣
Wow wow blooming wow 😍
I was genuinely laughing at your choice of T-shirts 😂😂 I thought you just lived in the same one 😂😂
What a stunning home, those views were just amazing. I was loved the routes though the mountainside and the views below. I’ll just remember to never visit in August 😳
The stars of the shows though would have to be the goats. Love how you got it to do the twirls. The other hikers must have thought you were bonkers 😂😂👍❤️
thanks Phil! yikes, im glad I bought some spares, although another point of the Airbnb they had washing and drying facilities onsite. we did have the conversation that we still pack too much. I could have saved room in my carry on case for something else with less Ts. (we never pay to fly a suitcase). we usually visit in September and it’s quite a lot busier then but most people are pretty sensible although you do get the occasional hand holders dawdling and taking up the entire path 🤬 those goats are incredible, so friendly, on a previous visits I did feed them my pack lunch, maybe bleets had got out on the goatvine? as soon as those hikers heard our English accents they knew what to expect! 😂
You guys are awesome nice trip ❤❤❤
Thank you! 😃
Like 1 watching now 👍

Haha I can see why it takes Nick so long to decide which outfit to wear haha I have another friend who wears black ..... or orange !..i don't get it hahaha.Well that hike looked superb on a well maintained path though don't get too close to the edge. Those goats are hilarious and obviously big fans of yours with lots of licks oh sorry I meant likes from them. Fantastic scenery all the way and not too many people was a bonus on a narrow path. I breathed a sigh of relief when that cafe was open at the end & wow what a bonus to do it all again in reverse. Fabulous 😎😍xx
🤣🤣 Right Christine you feel my pain he takes forever choosing from such a diverse wardrobe 🤣 Another great comment! we too breathed a sigh of relief with the open eatery after that hike! The back up sandwiches would not have been enough! Licks and Likes always welcome 🤣 hope your week is off to a good start! much love ❤️
You guys gave me Vertigo just by watching you hanging off that edge! I laughed my butt off at the Squatters haha. The lunch looked so good and love a runny egg! Those views were just awesome! You guys rock but where is the gate at hahaha!!
🤣🤣 sorry no gate in this one LB GOAT of the week in the form of squatters 🤣
Oh wow! That is Amazing. Now that's something that I have to try at some point. Even if I'm not keen on heights.
Love the goat twirl action 😂
I definitely need to get some practice in and stock up on ibuprofen 🤣
🤣 It’s a fabulous hike 👍
Wow it looks beautiful guys 👌
Thanks so much Glyn 😊 it really is an amazing hike ❤️
To say I was excited for this , loved the video,love the goat aftershave 😊. The steak 🥩 made me hungry. Looking forward to next phil
Ps well done 👍 Nigel now it’s time to get rid of the first past the post system
such a great Airbnb. €51 a night so £43 a night. homes four with fibre optic connections for unlimited people, all the cherries you can eat (seriously). highly recommend the place, just outside Potes, Cantabria, if its near where you want to be check it out! love to you both
@@GENerationXplorers yes we both loved the Airbnb ,the views were stunning.so far your 2 videos have got me excited,not just the amazing hikes ,but the food 🥘. I am a fussy eater France 🇫🇷 my total diet was French sticks ,but the meatballs on first hike and the steak 🥩 Jill ,had on hike 2 made me hungry ,so excited to try the food 🥘.have a great hopefully sunny weekend phil
the food is so reasonably priced Phil (it really is depressing coming back to the UK and not being able to even think about eating out). I felt the quality of food in Spain has improved considerably since our last visit. the Spanish were always good with hearty portion sizes but now they seem to have matched that with quality preparation and ingredients.
@@GENerationXplorers thank you , after watching your videos ,I cannot wait to go , and to be honest I could do with cheering up ,4 years of labour fills me with dread . Also good free app , my daughter showed me is duolingo helping me speak Spanish 🇪🇸 better phil
@ThePhilpunk yes duo lingo is pretty good. Also google translate does a good job now, you can talk English into it and it will speak out Spanish. I also downloaded all the Spanish to English translations on google translate for offline use just in case the 4G wasn’t good. It’s great at doing things like translating photos, signs and menus before your very eyes, even offline! Not to be the bearer of bad news, it’s five years (groan). Five years of woke left politics, bankrupted britain, benefit payouts, unnecessary council jobs and maybe even bringing Shamima Begum back to the UK. Can’t stand to even think about it.
So much amazement!! Gotta keep away from those edges...yikes! I see that you have activated GOAT mode (goes over any terrain) and taking advantage of it for YT sub invites too! lol
Hi Bruce love that GOAT mode that’s so us 🤣
I was thinking that path looked nice and wide until you said it ends up packed in the summer - I reckon I'd want to do as you did and do it on a quiet day.
definitely the best time Andy. we’ve done it about four times in September and it can be pretty rammed still then. there can be people really taking their time on it holding hands and taking up the full path! they act like you’ve spat in their face if you say excuse me to them (in Spanish obviously) 😂
Well this has just taken me an hour to watch this on patchy Cuban WiFi 😂 amd I lost my original comment! Well worth it though! I wondered how many black shirts you had Nick! 😂 you're now no longer the only goats (I mean in the acronym terms) of the bridge twirls! Amazing how tame they are! Beautiful gorge and hike! Steak egg and chips, perfect hiking food especially all in the same mouthful. Looks a superb hike, stunning. By the way, have you tried the Asturian cider? Obviously not during the hike! Great video guys, hope you got plenty of goats subscribing 😅
thank you so much Matt 🙏 we do seem to go over any terrain, much like my new subscribers Billy, Nanny, Gruff and Pan! Cant beat a good combo bite. you really threw me the with the Asturian Cidre. we end next weeks video on it (which is sat on CZcams and had me confused that you had seen it, doh). I’m sat currently editing the one to follow that where I ask the screen “where is Matt when you need him?” after having some translation and pronunciation issues on a mountain! on one of our previous visits where we weren’t doing CZcams but posing for photos close to the edge at the half way point we had a salad and a bottle of wine. on the return trip lost count of the number of times we tripped up or almost fell off the edge. no wonder there are so many casualties! thanks for persevering with the sketchy wifi. sending our love and best wishes from wet, cloudy, cold England in July.
GREAT WALK !!!!!👍👍👍👍 Kinda scary the drop offs...but ain't as scary as hanging off a 450ft coal silo..😅😂
😳😳 is that what you do? That sounds well scary! I think I asked if you do IG and I think you follow our Xplorers one but be sure to follow generation_xperiences to for more of what we get upto ❤️😘
@GENerationXplorers Well now I am a heavy equipment mechanic...but long ago I worked at a coal mine for a construction company building silos and underground slopes and conveyors. Worst job ever ! 🙃
@@ddunn3489 All sounds very scary, must have been quite an experience! Cheers for your on going support of our channel mr Dunn (that sounds formal but don’t know your name) 🤣👍❤️
Hi Nick and Jill
Apologies for my belated comment. We are having an Independence Day holiday and I am spending time with the in-laws for days.
Don’t worry have fun and Happy Independence 🇺🇸🎉❤️
Baaaah! 🤣🤣
🤣🤣
Looked like a great day! But if you told me at 10am I wouldn't be done till 9pm I would have trouble agreeing to it ... I'm not the intrepid hiker that y'all are!
gosh our final day was even longer, we turned a 6 hour difficult hike into a 9 hour one after getting lost for 3 hours up the wrong, near vertical mountain. Cant believe that we still make mistakes like that. you can see why we never get through our drink on our holidays. I’m usually fast asleep within an hour or two of getting in!
@@GENerationXplorers I can't imagine!
I love a good gorge walk myself tho it looked a tad dry in places but the stunning views more than made up for that. August doesn't sound very hermit friendly so I will make a mental note to stay away should I ever head that way. There seemed to be more goats than people which to me is way better. The big steak at the half way point looked nice, big and very cheap. It shows how much we get ripped off in the UK. Not much in it time wise in either direction. I don't think that cyclist will be doing it again. Sounded like a very expensive experience for him!
@@TheHikingHermit spot on Paul and thank you! You would love this hike 👍❤️
Danke für den tollen Beitrag Interessant, vielen lieben Dank dafür 👍 wünschen dir ein schönes Wochenende, vielen Dank für gegenseitige Unterstützung, ❤ Siggi & Anne ❤️
