Beautiful guys! Thank you!

Another great video with such amazing views! 😎👍😎
Thank you! It’s an incredible landscape there, so beautiful 😍🙌🏻🏔️
Hi Christine- I've really enjoyed this series! Wonderful scenery and your joy shines through, with the usual great choice of music! I made it to Helm Crag last week and I was thankful to have got some trekking sticks which made my descent from Stickle Tarn easier in bad weather the following day! I found your recent vlog with advice for staying safe helpful and I'm looking forward to your thoughts on packing for different types of walks. Do include tips when you feel it's relevant! 😊
Hi John, apologies for not replying sooner, I appear to have missed this comment from my notifications! Hope you're having a lovely weekend 😊 & lovely to hear you've enjoyed this series! Also really nice to hear you made it to Helm Crag, really hope you enjoyed it :) & ah amazing, I will do a separate video shortly hopefully on what I pack etc for different walks - thanks again for tagging along 🫶🏻
Incredible scenes Christine! Such a great watch. Don't know about you but theres always something special about an adventure with my brother! Reminds me of growing up 😀 Thanks as always for sharing 💚
Thanks Dan! It was my favourite day of this trek, the views were just never ending - lovely to hear you enjoyed the video 🫶🏻
& yeah exactly that, so nice to spend some quality time with him, get less of that as we get older don’t we?!
(Ps sorry for the late reply, been unwell the last week or so) 💛
@@shefreelyroams For sure.. Been trying to do more family stuff this year! hope you're feeling better 🙂
@@danwells3401 ah brilliant shout! Hope you’ve managed to & enjoyed :) & thanks, hopefully soon 🤞🏻
Ive run out of superlatives Christine. Just stunning and a very well put together videos by your good self! Ive been abroad quite a few times but usually to the likes of Greece and Tenerife etc but ive definately been missing out on such beautiful locations. Maybe I need to put that high on my to do list before the old bones give up haha. Have a great weekend Christine 🙂
Sorry Tony I seem to have missed this previous comment from you - apologies! Thank you so much - really nice to hear you enjoyed the video 😀 I'd love to go to Tenerife, heard it's got some stunning hiking trails & yes can definitely recommend the alps for hiking in Summer, especially on the Austrian side as relatively quiet and very clearly waymarked, you've still got plenty of time! Hopefully you can make the trip one day 🤞🏻
Like your music,, camera work,, and your voice,, just found you, ,,,,,let's enjoy 😊😊😊😊
Hi David 👋🏻 thank you! nice to hear you enjoyed the video & hope you’ve been enjoying the other videos too 🫶🏻😊
Very nice. Love from Canmore ( Canadian Rockies)
Thanks Ryan, nice to hear you enjoyed the video - love from Wales ❤️🏴
This series just keeps getting better ! Cracking weather and views help the long trek along...you must have been really happy with that days hike Christine 👌👌
Aw thanks Andrew, nice to hear you’re enjoying it! Yeah this was an awesome day, probably my favourite - the views/sunset/sunrise were just so beautiful 😍❤️
Hi Christine, That’s some stunning scenery, just a wee bit different to Wales or Cumbria. Where are you off to next?
Cheers
Graham
Haha yes! Just a tad different to Wales & Cumbria, the mountains here felt so small & relatively easy when I got back from the alps! Hopefully more hiking in Wales to be had in the next few weeks & maybe the lakes again before Xmas 🤞🏻 Hope you have a good rest of the week & thanks again, pleased you enjoyed this video too :)
Breathtaking sceneries! Beautiful traversing trail. Thank you for sharing. ❤
It's a breathtaking landscape & an awesome hiking trail - thank you for watching x
Some great views 🫡. I've never seen so many sheep😲, those bells must get a little repetitive after a while 😂.
Also I want to do something like that in future do you have a kit list and a way that you planned your route and what you do for food/water Ect.
Thanks Matt 🫶🏻 and me neither, there were so so many, it was hilarious! And incredible that they were all being herded by one dog! And it can do, but I don’t mind the noise, rather that than city noises 🤣
Good shout, can really recommend multi day hiking, it’s great fun - will try and do a separate video on my kit/planning etc :)
@shefreelyroams that is very ture I agree with that! The sound of bells is definitely better than cars and the city.
I look forward to the kit list and info video 😁.
@@matts_hiking_adventures yeah definitely a better sound! & thanks Matt, have a great rest of the week 😊
You asked about areas to go to in Switzerland. My first visit was the Bernese Oberland - Eiger area and I've been to the Valais - Zermatt area several times but they are very busy. A less busy area is the Engadine in the S.E. of the country, south of St. Moritz, you can get there easily by train. It has a touch of Italy about it as a bonus.
Thanks Peter - Eiger area has been recommended to me before too as prefer the slightly quieter parts! Did you enjoy it there? I’ll check out Engadine, sounds right up my street! Thanks again for taking the time to share your suggestions, have a lovely rest of the week 😊

I did enjoy it as it was the first time in the Alps, the mountains were so much bigger and I'd never seen glaciers before. I started at Adelboden and finished at Grindelwald over some high passes. The end of the trek was busy as you'd expect with fantastic views of the Eiger, Monch and Jungfrau. I did go up the railway to the Jungfraujoch and had a walk on the glacier to the Monchsjochhutte at 3657mtrs. If you have time google Soglio - a small village in the Engadine - it will give you an idea of the area.
@@peterholmes3011 thanks Peter, I’ve taken a look at google and it looks beautifully challenging, definitely one to add to my bucket list! Can definitely relate, the mountains seemed so small in wales when I got back from this trip!
