The best trail I've done. Can't beat it despite trying. The Highlands may not be the highest mountains but it's the wildest place where one can BE. Camping put on route alone with the wind and deer. If your considering Caie Wrath Trail....Go for it. Be fit. Have good all weather kit and research your food and pack weight. Every day it gets lighter... Love it ❤

What this misses out, is the next part of the path after you have crossed the river. This is narrow, overlooking a ravine, and sometimes scrambly.

Yep, a good spot. Also one or two about 1km downstream with good pools for a dip, rocks and waterfalls. Not a bad place to head for if the weather is good and you want to avoid a crush at Sourilles. Also gets you a mile ahead of the rush to Barisdale and past some of the boggy stretches found as the river meets the sea loch.

Great stuff. Wind. Rain. Gales. Snow. Big rivers and streams. I'm going for it again in December. Should be a challenge. Can't wait to get this book. Thks

New subscriber 😊here..🙏👍🏼

I completed it at the beginning of April just gone. It was indeed a life changing experience. Some hair raising moments along the way, but I’ll never forget the memories. What a trip! Your book helped a great deal - thanks.

Great interview, thanks!

Hi, I'm planning to walk the route in April this year. I was wondering, how you prepare for an emergency when you can 't use your phone.

Very useful series! When will the next one be available😊 Hope to see moore stages before I"ll walk half the trail in May

Brilliant informative description and is inspiring me now to attempt the CWT with my son.

Liked and subbed.

Absolutely loved this video - I used to have an "annual mecca" to Durness with friends to do aurora photography. Sadly, this was always around March and of course the ferry service doesn't begin until may so I had never seen photos/video of the area itself. Nor did I know of the cafe !! Thank you so much Iain for putting this together, it was brilliant to watch but do keep safe not only from the range activity but also the cold !!!

I did it in the early 2000s and used that first Cicerone guide, maybe its time to do it again with the updated version.

Great interview and really enjoyed Alex’s book - deeply honest, informative and entertaining

Great photos, walked to the Cape from Blairmore in t shirt sunshine, and walked back the next day in lashing rain, ended up near hypothermic due to lack of stops for food on the way. Bought your book this week for inspiration.

Just received Iain’s book, looking to buy Alex’s also.

Beautiful videos - expertly thought out and filmed. Have walked the trail many times and these are the truest representation of what it is really like. I will enjoy watching all of them.

very well made video. i look forward to my hike in june 2023

Superb video! I plan on attempting it next year in 12 days. Watching this has inspired me even more.

Incredibly useful Iain !

Hi Iain, we spoke a while ago I was making a film about the CWT and Lesley was involved. Then a little virus got in the way! - I'm planning the production later this year or the beginning of next. Glad to see you on UA-cam I've just subscribed and I'm certainly trying to grow my channel as I'm sick and tired of the constantly saying with traditional broadcasters! Hope you're doing well and perhaps we can have a chat in the future... If you can also subscribe that would be awesome!

Everyone I met in Knoydart pronounced A’chuil differently from this video

Only 2 weeks away from the cape wrath start. After much prep and training I am as prepared as I could ever be. I just want to thank you very much as your videos on the trail are excellent. I'm so much more confident about my hike after watching your channel. Your guide book is handy too..bit heavy though lol. I've photographed the pages to reduce my pack weight. Happy hiking and a big thank you.

Beautifully filmed

You should setup a patreon account so people can donate

Very interesting...

Thanks for all your hard work on the Cicerone guide and on these videos. I have spent ages on reconnaissance using the guide, youtube and the Harvey maps ready for this April, and have really appreciated the information. Looking forward to putting it all into action.

Top video. Very clear and informative. Thanks

Hello Iain. Wow. These are excellent guide videos for anyone thinking about doing the CWT. Great, informative detail and at about 20mins, this was an ideal length. Some super photos and footage. Keep 'em coming if you can. Rgds, Wadirunner.

By some way the most useful series of videos I've watched as part of my preparation for CWT sometime in Spring. The effort you are putting into them is worth it - making them both informative and beautiful. I agree with comments regarding where are the possible parcel-drop, resupply and/or restaurants along the way. This is information less easy to glean from just looking at a map.

One other thing iain, could you mention bout potential resuuply points, those businesses willing to take parcels in. Thx

Future vid please.... Viable alternative to falls of glomach

Fantastic video, well done. Loving the drone footage. Really nice to see some of the wider surroundings. 👍

Thanks for the video. A friend and I did the CWT this September, following your guide, and I agree that this section is where the first real sense of wilderness creeps in. We'd hoped to stay in Sourlies but it was fairly full so we pressed on - getting utterly sodden in the marsh flats and then midged alive at our camp spot by the Carnach - a true CWT moment :) (I later heard that following the bank of the river up to the bridge is the best strategy for avoiding those Dead Marshes)

Great stuff. Looking forward to the next instalment

Thank you so much, I was looking forward to it 👏

Brilliant film, narration and music.....

Excellent and extremely useful; thanks! I loved the great shots from the drone :-) Keep these coming! (perhaps less of the background mood music, or use recordings of the environment sounds instead, for authentic atmosphere?)

Looks Really Nice. Thanks a Lot

Iain, I love these videos. This trail has got into me like no other! I first discovered the North West Highlands twelve years ago,Assynt in particular. I feel I must walk this trail before I am no longer able. The trouble is I’ve never camped in my life,I am 65 and I guess time is not on my side. I’ve climbed Suilven, and Quinag… these places are magical . I want so much to walk the trail but feel I need someone to do it with. If you no anyone to help let me know. I am going to buy the book and keep watching your videos.

Boots arnt a must. Trailrunners is what you need for the cape wrath. Though it's just personal preference I suppose. Boots are too heavy

subtitles would be good

Well done and thank you. Already have your book, but this is very helpful. I hope there will be more soon. 🤗

Impressive...Subscribed

Thank you lain the videos are a great help…👍👍

Hi Iain - Really helpful series. Any chance we can see the next instalment soon??

Great video 👍👍

Thank you lain great video 👍👍

Thanks for putting this online. The CWT is in my sights so interested to hear others experiences. I'm a Garmin inReach Mini user. The satellite comms have been very reliable. I'm not sure anything has gone missing. I don't think the Spot devices are so reliable...
