- My biggest adventure yet, the Arran coastal way. Starting and finishing in Brodick (Arrans biggest village). I’d be hiking and camping where I could along the trail. It was about time I really challenged myself and this trail was the perfect answer. Join me as I hike 68 miles and explore Scotlands Isle of Arran
Missus and I thoroughly enjoyed joining you on your hike. We spent half an hour with Robbie Coltrane in Lamlash, who loved the peace and quiet. Well done Young Lad 👍
Thanks mate. Aw that must’ve been great to meet him, can see why he liked lamlash, such a nice place
Brilliant video. Your bright commentary made up for the dull weather. Looking forward to seeing more enjoyable videos from you in the future.
Thanks a lot🙏 yeh the weather was pretty poor but always try to keep in good spirits and enjoy it all the same
Excellent vlog and well done completing the trail. Out of my 4 trips to Arran, 2 have been backpacking. It's a beautiful island.
Thankyou. Yeh arran is amazing, been a few times now and loved it every time
I did a hiking trip there back around 1986. I had a pint of Guinness in Lamlash and it was off. I threw up outside my tent a few hours later. Beautiful island!
Aw sorry to hear that. I won’t be drinking in lamlash after hearing that😂😂
great video as always 👏👏
Cheers mate, glad you enjoyed
I really enjoyed the video great job, thank you for taking us with you, i look forward to your next adventure.
Thanks, that means a lot. Plenty more adventures to come
Ah I love Arran. Went there on a geography O Level Field trip back in the early 80's. We stayed in Lochranza and it was such a lovely place. This brought back some great memories!
Yeh arran is amazing, was great to see all the different parts. Glad I could bring back some memories for you
Well done! As an Arran local i've done most of this over the years, some of it drunk in the middle of the night getting home! I'll definitely do the full thing over a few days at some point, once I finish all the island summits. Sorry you never got good weather, you've got to be on good terms with the little people on the island to guarantee that! 😄
Haha yeh I’m sure next time I go back to arran the weather will be a bit kinder. Was a great island though, so many things to see
Excellent videography, commentary and editing...I think the algorithm recommended you to me because I am a fan of Steve Marsh who vlogs walks in Scotland and elsewhere.
Aw yeh he’s great I’ve watched some of his videos. Thanks for the kind words, means a lot
Smashing little video 😊 a lovely look around the coast, what a bonus with the dolphins, rainbow and full flow waterfall. Thank you 😉
Yeh I was really impressed by the waterfall and the dolphins were incredible to see. Thanks for the kind words🙏
Great first solo. We’ve been watching your other vlogs and we are now just watching your first solo, superb. Your commentary is always very good. Nice to see such a young man with a great head on his shoulders enjoying the great outdoors. My partner and I are off to Arran again in April, such a beautiful place to explore. Stay safe and keep adventuring Linda & Mark from Lanarkshire 😊😊 look forward to seeing more!
Yeh arran is amazing, loved it (even in awful weather). Enjoy your trip when it comes around
Hi mate, I don't know why I missed this video. What a cracking trip, a shame about the weather, but that's the British Isles for you. It still looked stunning though. Thanks for sharing your adventure with us. All the best, Dave
Thanks Dave. Yeh can’t get lucky with weather all the time, still an enjoyable trail though. Thanks for watching
Excellent well made vid. I have friends there and haven't been since before covid, good to see it again.
Thanks mate 🙏 glad you could see the place again through the vid. Hope you get the chance to go again and see your pals
Well I didn't see that coming😅. But all the better for that!
I was right about a Tertiary igneous centre, and the castle on the background was Brodick Castle. Ok I was only 100 miles out🤦♂️!!.
But what a glorious presentation 😃, catching the terrain, wildlife and villages you pass through. sure many people wouldn't have known that a coast path of Arran even existed.Seems a bit disjointed in parts. I have some good friends who do an annual holiday on Arran, and wouldn't go anywhere else.
You were obviously out in the recent weather which saw many of us confined to barracks. But once more you show that should not stop people getting out and breathing the fresh air!
You asked us to enjoy this adventure and yes, no ifs buts or maybe
Good one!
Mike
Thanks mate. Yeh the weather was not great, but still a great adventure and glad I went. Arran is amazing so was great to see different parts
I’m doing this one in July 😜 I really enjoyed your video xx
Thanks for the kind words. Love ur vids, can’t believe what u endured on that last cape wrath attempt. Will be looking out for ur video for sure😊
Thank you for sharing, the scenery is stunning even with the rain. Loved the waterfall.
Thanks 🙏 yeh the waterfall was amazing, made up for all the rain😂😂
Nice one man, liked and subbed.
Thanks bro 🙏
Stunning fella. Thank you again.
Thanks mate 🙏
What an epic adventure young fella 👌 Did you stop of at the nude beach on cleats shore cracking weather for it 🥶😂😂😂😂 Brilliant channel I’m hoping to get up to Goat Fell this summer ⛰️🤟
Nah I must’ve missed that beach. Might have to do the trail again though now😂😂. Goat fell is really good, I’m sure you’ll love it
Excellent well balanced content. I would have found it useful for the place names to be displayed on screen.
Will keep that in mind
Great stuff. Very interesting, well made and atmospheric (& wet). It's interesting to see the many parts of the island.
Yeh for sure, saw many places I hadn’t been before. The rain wasn’t too fun though😂😂
Well done 👏
Thanks 🙏
Very enjoyable video, ✔️✔️
Thanks mate 😊🙏
ACE.
Thanks 🙏
Well done pal. Arran's an awesome place.
Thanks. Yeh it’s great, was amazing to see a new place. Even with poor weather
@@ScottishSummiteer need to get yourself up Goatfell. The views are astonishing….so long as it’s Clear 🙂👍
Yeh I’ve done it before a few years ago but was in the clouds so couldn’t see much 😂. Will definitely have to do it again at some point
Well done 👏thank you for sharing, it’s on my to do list now 👍but not in 3 days 🙈 age against me 🤣
😂😂 yeh I was just about ready to collapse after the 3 days. Would highly recommend taking a bit longer to enjoy it more
Yes definitely agree, The various hiking websites suggest 5 to 8 days for the full circuit of the Isle. That would likely include ascent of Goatfell and other visitor highlights like Holy Isle. All taken at a leisurely pace in summer conditions.😊
Hay, in which Month did you do the Trail?
Was in October 👍
how did your mum let you out so far?
What do you mean? 😂😂
