@@Bb97jdiyc479 "Working out better than the brooks so far. Quick laces are nice. Dried quickly after crossing rivers. Need a few more hundred miles before I see where they come apart. Expect a review after Switzerland ✌🏻" - That's his words from facebook group.
Think about this folks. EVERY scene requires setting up a camera... taking a walk... stopping and returning to pick up the camera, then repeating the walk. OVER and over again, to create this video. Deep respect for the effort taken to provide this experience to all of us. Thank you Kraig.
NAHHHH KRAIG HAS GOTTEN SMART HE USES DRONES A LOT FOR HIS SHOTS SO LESS WALKING BAXK AND FORTH TO PICK UP HIS CAMERA DRONES CAN BE SET UP TO HOVER ABOUT 3 FEET OR SOOOO CAPTURING SHOTS YOU WANT
I did this hike July 2021. It's a wonderful hike. I hitchhiked back to Reykjavik at the end. It was a 97 mile hitch. I got a ride the entire way by Donny Dust who starred in season 6 of Alone. He was in Iceland filming a survival series.
I know you have way too many subscribers and probably get way too many comments to acknowledge mine but I wanted to let you know was a disabled person with cancer I get to live life vicariously through you. Maybe you think just people who like to hike and see the world watch you but it's actually people like me who can't. I can never say thank you enough for taking me to these beautiful places I can almost smell the air and feel the wind on my face. 🤜🤛
I don't know if it's something you would ever do but one thing I've always wanted to do and I cannot is hike the White mountains of New Hampshire. That's something I would love to see you do. The Kancamagus highway is beautiful and there are certainly breathtaking locations in this country. Give it some thought and thank you
I've hiked this route about 15 times, the first time in late August 1979. The reason I remember the date is that a fatal accident occurred after we started out hike in the river that you crossed on those two spindly pedestrian bridges - a group of 4x4s had attempted to drive across it a hundred yards or so upstream of the bridge but had been swept away by the current. We got to that hut the evening after and met some people who had been attempting to recover wreckage from the river.
Inspired by you to not just sit at home and get out there, I just did a 2 days hike in Norway, hiked Trolltunga, set camp after the first 25km and walked back the next morning. Now convinced to do this stuff more often!
I did the Laugavegur hike alone back in 1989, from Landmannalaugar to Skogar. Back then, there was almost NO tourism in Iceland, and apart from the huts at Thorsmork, I only met one other hiker on the entire trip. It was an incredible experience, and I'd like to do it again someday, but with all the attention it's getting, it's probably quite different.
At least one trail I did before you ! Did Hellismannaleid and Laugavegur last summer : Rjupnavellir to Thorsmörk, a wonderful hike, but had to cancel continuing with Fimmvörðuháls due to weather condition and stop in Thorsmörk. Fimmvörðuháls from Thorsmörk to Skogar can be one of the most dangerous trail in Iceland when conditions are not good like you had, and is surely the one with the most rescuing operations. So for people wanting to do it : always check wheather conditions with the campsite warden in Thorsmork before leaving and don't trust what you see : we were under a very nice sun in Thorsmörk thinking we could do it but learned from the warden that it was only storm at the top and suggesting us not to do it... Avoid also leaving from Skogar without live weather information on the top, there is no warden to ask... When I stay in Thorsmörk one more night inside of hiking to Skogar, people hiking the same way did like me and no one left... The day after, we learned from the warden than people who started the day beafore from Skogar (the easy side...) without good advices/informations were stuck in Baldvinsskáli hut with no possibility of leaving, moments of storm and a visibility of less than 50 meters outside... Who knows what could have happened if we didn't ask the warden or follow his advice, and left... Hiking trails in Iceland is unique but just need good organisation and the right gear, never underestimate trails in Iceland even in summer (especially Fimmvörðuháls) and remember that you can find the trail is an easy and wonderful hike in good condition but a less lucky guy on the same way 3 days after you with bad conditions will perhaps find the same hike awful and dangerous... And thank you for having helped me with your videos to do the last step to start on the trails for more than one day, showing it was possible ;) I made Torres del Paine in March, and am planning hiking in Grand Teton in August !
Good stuff. Always appreciate the effort when so much time is put into a specific shot, specifically the drones, and then only 2-3 seconds of it actually make the final cut.
Thank you so much for your CZcams channel for bringing me adventures and journeys. Every time I see these places Feels like I'm searching for something of a journey.
It’s amazing to see beautiful drone shots of this trail. Thank you for that. I did the trail in 2019 and I am going back to Iceland again in 10 days for this trail. One of my favorites for sure.
Watching this brought back nice memories - i did the exact same itinerary a few years ago and spent some more days in Landmann and Thorsmork for day hiking
This is exactly what I needed after a long day at stressful work. It is inspirational and motivating to get out of comfort and make something out of the life we were gifted to have. Thank you so much for sharing and wishing you only the best.
Incredible drone Intro Kraig, I am not gonna watch further, as I am gonna do a public viewing event in the garden with your new piece today. Some cold drinks, BBQ, Friends, and a new Kraig Adams Masterpiece. So looking forward to it. Merci man
Another awesome hiking video Kraig and very happy to meet you on the trail a couple of times (22:06 in video). You have been an inspiration for my own hiking videos and I will soon upload my version of the same trails where you are actually part of 2 shots yourself :) Impressive editing speed by the way seeing as we hiked the trails last week. Take care, stay safe in Switzerland and I hope we cross paths again!
@@RenegadeShepTheSpacer Nice! I just uploaded my version of the Fimmvorduhals and will upload the Laugavagur trail separately. When meeting Kraig on the trail, the world indeed seemed small for a moment!
Really awesome! I have a question: when you cross the river no water enters the shoes? If the water got into the shoes did your foot not rub . Thank you.
I did a 12 mile out-and-back last month starting at Skogafoss. It was one of the best hikes of my life. I counted over 10 waterfalls just in those miles of hiking.
I haven't had a lot of time recently so now I'm just binge watching your last ~5-6 months of videos and I gotta say I don't think there was ever a channel that made me relax and appreciate nature as much as yours.
This trail is on my to-do list and I found your video so informative with beautiful optics. Thank you for making and posting. It's a very professional video and did I say beautiful? Good travels to you.
Very cool, Kraig. I'm envious of the cool temps there in Iceland as I swelter in Reno. Our recent backpacking trip to Yosemite was almost as scenic as Iceland :)
I'm going to Iceland this fall with two of my friends. We'll be renting a car and driving around the entire outside rim of the country in 14 days. I can't wait! Your Hornstrandir video is one I always come back to because I love it so much. Thanks for the inspiring content Kraig!
I literally now walking back in Reykjavík, after completing Hellismanaleid and Laugavegur yesterday (110 km combined). Such a coincidence! A big fan of yours.
Excellent video. Have been to Iceland. Beautiful country. Stayed in the Reykjavik area. Felt very safe. Hope to get back there again someday. Enjoy Switzerland. 🇨🇭
Dios mío! Que increíbles tomas, realmente me sentí ahí. Visité Iceland hace 4 años, no hice este recorrido pero de inmediato identifiqué los espectaculares paisajes, simplemente asombrosos e imponentes. Mil gracias por el magnífico video ❤
crazy how you pack all that stuff in this small backpack. Was nice to see some Iceland shots which brought up some memories from 2017 when I did this hike.
Thanks for sharing. I’ll be there the end of August doing the same hike . Gonna try to plan for 4 days . I’ll be staying at the Fimmvörðuháls hut one night but wild camping the other nights . Hopefully I can do some stuff in the city upon returning.
GORGEOUS! Loving the music.. its 1/2 the reason I tune in! Thank you for taking me places I could never hike due to health issues.. what a BLESSING to be able to follow your hearts desire.. peace
Amazing Adam. My partner and I went to Iceland because we where in awe from your first video there. Ended up making a little travel video inspired by your style. Absolutely amazing scenery we would love to go again. Thanks for taking me back.
I started this youtube channel just by watching your videos Kraig ❤️. I know it's an uphill for a new channel like me but I'll be consistent and make sure to improve myself with every video I make. Thank you Kraig ❤️
Did this Hike solo last year . Need good rain gear and good tent . U can’t charge your power banks while on trail . U can charge in thorsmörk tho . Love this hike
New Salomon trail runners - geni.us/ZwtxOOI
saw you made some water crossings in those shoes, did they drain well? how long did they take to dry? compared to your old brooks cascadias
What are your thoughts on this shoe? Compared to the Brooks Cascadia 16s

I've been thinking this too, imagining him coming back every time. This is where a re-homing drone would be handy :D
Why not just carry a camera?
Especially for the scene at 9:18 literally in a freezing cold river.
