Thank you Skillshare for sponsoring this video.
This is part 5 of my hike on the Cape Wrath Trail, day 14 and day 15 (of 17 days total), between Ben More Assynt and Loch Stack. I did this hike as part of a challenge that I made up called the Scottish Adventure Triathlon - cycling, paddle boarding, and hiking from the bottom to the top of Scotland.
If you want to know anything about the kit, planning, food, logistics, for this hike... I made a whole separate video on that so go check it out • Hiking 370km on the Ca...
Thanks for watching ☺️

Fab video! The bog flower is a butterwort. The green star is actually the leaves (it has a wee purple flower growing from the center in June) and it's also carnivorous, nibbling away at the midges!
Watching your slow descent into madness reminds me so much of my own solo adventures... its amazing the silly fun you can have with yourself when you're exhausted and have been alone for too long!
Not sure how you manage to carry that bag on ya back ,walk up and down mountains and other treacherous terrains ,in all kinds of weather,being eaten by midges and still manage to keep you sense of humour.!!! Loved every minute of this vlog....you are amazing x
Yessss! Just fell out of my bed, grabbed my coffee and saw the notification. Was looking forward your new video - the last parts were just stunning! 😸😸😸
I can tell you that the scenery in this one deserves a huuuuuuge chefs kiss 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Don't know what job you do or who you work for but whoever it is they're bloody lucky to have you,your energy levels and positivity are top notch,an asset to any company+being ultra fit in both senses AND your honesty and comic timing are brilliant despite your unwanted 'guest stars' The Midges,I think I've seen all your vids twice now,never boring,keep up the great work.
My favourite hiking channel these days - well done finally getting it out 😁! It’s “mint” to be sure!
Another great video. The Bog Flowers are Butterworts. They are carnivorous and the best thing about them is that they eat Midgies.
🏴🏴🏞️🏕️🦟🦟🌼Yayyyy Sarah and her madness is back!! 😁 Bloody marvelous this was.. 👍 Best Sunday morning viewing on CZcams. Absolutely stunning scenery throughout with your bonkers quips, tunes and commentary 👍👍👍 Onwards to the next video little bog flower 😁😎 💯10/10 🌸🌞
😂 pissing at the eating like a cow impression 😂 New favourite CZcamsr by far ❤
i love that waterfall. its opposite Britain's highest waterfall Eas a' Chual Aluinn yet somehow higher.
And your rap at 36 mins in is class! You're a beautiful young woman and hopefully an inspiration to many more, I can't praise you highly enough
Just brilliant !!
Hi Sarah, Thank you for letting me share your journey, you have taken me to places that I am never likely to go, the scenery is stunning, you do all the hard work and suffer Scottish piranha!!! (Midges) I just wanted to tell you that it is very much appreciated. Have enjoyed watching. Take care Chris from Kent

Looking forward to this so much, I think I've rewatched the first four three time by now 😀

Fantastic video! My heart is in the Highlands. 💙
The landscape totally looks like the top of the White Mountains of New Hampshire and Maine, but with fewer trees.
Yesssss!!!! Thankyou. Can’t wait to watch this on the big screen after work. Sara you’re a star ⭐️ 💗💗⭐️
Willl keep this for tonight, cracking wee series,
Superb👏I thoroughly enjoyed that, amazing scenery and good craic 10/10👌
Always amazed by your videos, would be amazing to watch more of your knowledge sharing videos. Hoping to see a different route and an adventure in the future, if you keep with youtube of course. Love you, Sarah!
I love your beautiful madness, and it is framed by the amazing Scottish Highlands.
Awesome 👌 thank you for taking us along 😀
Absolutely love your videos & energy 😁
You are 100% my new favourite person 😊 have loved watching you walk the cape wrath trail and have inspired me to go and do the west highland way next year!
Dear Butterwort -- I just love your nutty humour. It brings a smile to my face for the rest of the day! I'm already looking forward to your next post.
Hi Sarah what a wonderful thing to wake up to on a Sunday morning thanks even love the song
Thank you! Super!😃
Another superb video 👍
Brava on the song! 😊 Loved it!
Your videos are so fun, so real, so down to earth and lovely. But it's more than that! I've not found a single one of them boring at any point. You've got an excellent eye for capturing the majesty of the landscapes, and your editing is so great as well!
Thank you for all of these, Sarah! Thank you for your smile, thank you for the splendid views. I'm so happy to be subscribed, knowing that I'll get to see all the new videos you create.
52 minutes and it still didnt feel long enough , cant wait for the next chapter,.❤
Well done Sarah the Welsh adventure really enjoyed this blog your amazing lady and your a great laugh to watch
Sugar Rush Sarah 💜 Stunning shots of Scotland in part 5. Thank you!!!!
Fab. Another great vid of the cape wrath.
You're bonkers. In the most lovely way.
I've really enjoyed all your vids on this trail whilst I prepare for a shot at it in May. Big respect on how you managed with billions of midgeys.
Thanks a million. Happy adventures.😀
Good to see the Nike air zoom plazzy bags getting a run out early doors! My fav section of part 5 was the sunset arriving at the bothy. Stunning scenery, perfect bg music. Bloody loved it. Epic work on documenting this journey Sarah Snail. 🐌
Thanks Sarah great adventure this look forward to next one shine on you crazy 💎 x
Likely was a Ghost.. Fits the criteria for paranormal activity.. What a wild night that must have been there alone in a spooky Bothy.
What a totally enthralling video, I loved every minute of it! Your humour is awesome too.. The "navigation person".. 😂😂
Need to watch the rest of the trail now.. 👀😊
Your videos always make me smile and laugh, I really enjoy your sense of humor 😄
Awesome and funny as always, thanks ☺️. heading up there in June for 10 days camping 😁🏴❤️
Thanks Sarah,what a fabulous experience,its been amazing to be with you and your journey,the scenery is breathtaking! ps: you are not a bog flower at all but a pretty spring Daffodil full of the joys of life heralding long summer days to come!
Pleasant surprise to find your new video out this morning, lost an hour with the clocks going forward, might as well lose another one 😀
Been waiting for this :-)
Hope you enjoy it 🙌🏻
Thanks Sarah, well worth the wait and I'm looking forward to the next instalment.
That was good timing as the next ones just gone up 😊 Thank you for watching 🙌🏻
Well done! Best part of following along with your adventure is watching you slowly lose you mind (even more so)!
Great entertainment! Mad as a box of frogs but just great fun. I think you mask just how hard this trail really is very well. Great job!
😀 best start to a Sunday morning… our slightly nutty Welsh wander is back… ⛺️🏴, Another great vlog thanks Sarah 👍
Top of the morning to you Sarah. I've been waiting for this much anticipated video and it didn't disappoint 🙌 great views and banter from you as always. I was thinking about what you said, if you had a drone and maybe you do or you just didnt take it to save on weight, but the walk bys that you do, you could get the drone to come to you instead of going back for your GoPro. Just an idea im sure the logistics would be a pain when getting it out and repacking it. Sorry I'm waffling lol 😆 oh and I thought the Welsh could sing? 😅 10/10 for effort 👌 thanks for sharing and I'll look forward to your next video in this installment 👌
Yesssss! Another instalment of my fave adventure. Love the funny voices too, shnacks!
The little pussy bag moment had me creased! :-D
It was the same for me when that view came into, er, view after the climb from Inchnadamph. Blew me away.
I camped by those lochans on your way down and the midges were the worse they'd been on the whole walk!
Top tip - - run for the rocks because they live in the grass.
Absolutely fantastic and glad kenny cairn was back lol 😂 always fantastic videos and always hilarious 😂 you captured the beautiful Scotland well, plus the evil midges with kilts on, keep sharing your fun adventures yayyyyyy 🙌🏼🏔🙌🏼
Another epic and funny vid👍
100% cocoa chocolate is good. Also maltesers crunched up and mixed with snack a' Jacks salt and vinegar rice cakes/crisps.
Loving your videos. Well done 👍
That was so great. Laughed my ass off. It was beautifully filmed and edited too. I had no idea BFF means Bog Flower Forever. 🤔😋 Thanks, Sarah. 🙂👍🏕️
Great stuff - the footage around that first bothy was particularly stunnin. The world needs more bog flowers. And swearing. You is bonkers in the best way. Keep up the good work, atb, Andy
Cape wrath snail :D ur pure gold entertainment!
Another brilliant funny video thanks for sharing love the whole series cheer Chris
Thanks Chis! 😊🙌🏻
What to say...? Huge admiration for your mental strength in just keeping going and being honest on camera,I guess all long distance trekkers have been down the road of partial madness as the end draws near. The rucksac looks huge so your physical strength is impressive too. Massive respect. Like others I have watched your 1st 4 films a few times, just been climbing in Spain,had a wet day so watched all 4 in one go.! One tip tho.....eat more!
So good, bog flower 💪💪💪
Thanks Sarah, can’t pass a cairn anymore without singing the ‘Kenny Cairn’ song,,,,, FFS 😳😳😂
Hi Sarah - really been looking forward to this episode and it didn't disappoint! Great scenery, photography and humour. The 'bog' plant is Butterwort. As bogs have a very low nitrogen content the plant supplements its nitrogen by trapping insects in the sticky part of its leaves. Doesn't reduce the population of Midge-biters much though!
Thank you Sarah for another great video! Looking so much forward to next one. Though just realized it's probably the last one with you on the Cape wrath trail :'(
So strong* Such fun* Thanks a million for taking us along* :-)
The fears in the bothy you shared with us definitely resonated with me. I know myself that they are irrational. I once was threatened at knife point on a busy Saturday afternoon on Park Street in Bristol. - Chances to be attacked in a city are far greater than in the outdoors but still, we have these fears in a tent at night when we hear anything.
I had to look twice as I thought there was a tiger behind you on our right at 33.44 but of course it was just the the ground and rocks 🤦♀️🙈
I've been fascinated by those bog flowers on Sgurr na Stri on Skye. Such pretty wee things 🏵 Katie
Hi Sarah its great to see you are safe as we where getting worried if you where ok. As we loved your post, you make us both feel happy when we watch your videos, and it was such a treat to post this video on mothers day lol. thank you. See you on your next adventure love best wishes your adopted parents, xx lol Michael & Kim
Bloody great video Sarah! Love the scenery up there ..."..If you say one, you are dead to me.." 🤣🤣🤣.. you would think by now we would have developed much better midge repellents..I don't want the video to end either seriously... tremendous effort!
Go girl👍
we love your video's, so much!!! Rachael, Amelia and Jacob.
God the views are enchanting Your very courageous taking this considerable feat on
Absolutely brilliant! If only CZcams had more content like this instead of the pish it's filled with! 😄
Hey Sarah. Seeing you from being (somewhat) sane in the first Part to going Gaga in this Part is quite funny and scary 🙂 Sure...blame it on the sugar...
Great job, Ma'am. Loving it!
Had a few beers and fell asleep watching episode 3, all of a sudden I'm here... ffs
Sara you are nuts... I love it you being yourself. That is what makes you a beautiful lassie
Looks like your emotions were running wild on this section of the trail 😊
I've got a feeling it was the chemicals at the raves that sent you a little crazy 🤪 happy hardcore drum and bass on the c w t love it 🙂
Still the best!
An A**ehole in tweed is usually just that. Plow on through them is what i usually do. Only use to tuem is midge fodder 🤭 another great 2 year old vid. Atb.
47:00, yeah, so if anyone watching is planning for this section of the CWT, I was walking this section a few days ago, got to the quarter of the house in 40+mph wind, heavy rain and cloud, stopped to try and layer up, realised I was v soggy and boardline hypothermic and probably needed to head down rather than carry on up Ben Drevie, but really didn't want to road walk or take the shortcut way. If you look at the Harvey map, there's a track and later intermittent path going through Strath Stack that goes through a really nice sheltered plantation. It adds a couple km on and you miss the summit (not that you could have seen anything that day!), but it pops out back to the main route much earlier without needing to road walk so would really recommend if anyone else does that bit in rubbish conditions and wants to avoid the road as the shelter from the wind and rain was really welcome!! Also, really relate to the madness of that bit of the section.. Was singing VERY loudly about houmous and the breadbags on my hands to make it through....
At 22:30 I thought the image of you on your back like a woodlouse was so funny. Felt so bad laughing, but did anyway
😂😂 I’d be gutted if you didn’t laugh tbh
You are still.my favourite vlogger, your so flipping nuts 😜 but your so brave and you are totally amazing 😲 👏
“I’m a sadist….to myself” 😂😂
That and the bovine eating habits🤣
You’re a Welsh ⭐️ or maybe a bog flower.
Thanks for opening the gate for us today at the Rhynogs.. I didn't recognise you until you were way off down the track (it was the boots that clinched it). Otherwise I would have loved to chat. I've been following your cape wrath vids as I will be up there myself shortly. I hope you had a good day, the weather was fab. We were just walking the dog. safe travels phil
Loving this series. You’re a right crack. Next time I am in wales I am bring some Mrs Tilly’s just in case I bump in to you, highly unlikely but imagine 😂
I was looking forward to this video - invested in your journey. For some reason I did not get a notification from CZcams and only realised it was up thanks to Instagram. Just thought I would let you know just incase there is a CZcams issue. Great video BTW.
legend ...great vid once again and you showed proof that you can get a tan in Scotland lol 🤙🤣
Ye as daft as ever 🤣but once again a mint video so enjoyable views out this world well done 👍
