Exploring Scottish Highlands in Cairngorms National Park [Hiking Cairn Gorm]
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 чер 2024
- Cairngorms National Park is a great place for hiking and exploring the picturesque Scottish highlands landscape. It’s home to many plants, creatures and ecosystems. It houses over half of the surviving ancient Caledonian Scottish forest. It’s also home to the Cairngorm Mountain range, which lies in the heart of the park.
On a whim, for my birthday hike, we decided to hike Cairn Gorm itself, the 7th tallest mountain in the British Isles.
And we really had no idea just how ruggedly beautiful the landscape could be.
We took the 7.2 mile loop Cairn Gorm loop trail through the Cairngorm mountain summit, through Stob Coire an t-Sneachda and Cairn Lochan. You can add the Ben MacDui loop if you want a longer route.
Hope you enjoy the video and sketches!

Hey all, stoked to finally finish this one up. Took a while with all the sketches, but glad I did them. This footage was a pain to stabilize as the wind here was seriously nuts and I apologize for some jittery shots :/. Hope you enjoy! PS: I've been wanting to add a few more GoPro / color grading tutorials in the future in addition to the hiking stuff.
Overall the quality and camera work is amazing 🔥 full view my friend
@@KaisDinoAdventures Thanks Kai!
Fantastic. I love that yellow-green grass up in the alpine zone. It feels quintessentially U.K.
It sure is. Great at sunset too.
Very nice place and wonderful video! I'm going there in September.
This channel needs to grow up, it's very good. You have a new one subscriber.
Thanks for watching! And that's awesome, it's a great place for sure, I wish I had more than a day there, lots to explore. Hope you enjoy your trip.
Beautifully done video and fantastic sketches! Well done!
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!
Well done sir! You have a river of talent, please keep it flowing within this channel :-)
Appreciate the kind words Jeff. Scotland is a treasure trove of amazing adventures, I am grateful to have been able to spend some time there!
@@cyruscrossan In 2009 I spent the summer in Scotland and did a bit of traveling in the Highlands. Like you, I am grateful for that experience. Your video brought me back to that magical time, thank you.
Another gorgeous adventure! 👏
Thanks man, super underrated area in my opinion.
Wow, dude. Are you kidding with this footage? I know Scotland must make it a little easier, but this is just GORGEOUS! And especially the animals. The "wooly cows" are so amazing. This is so, so great. And again, your sketches are awesome. Your videos just keep getting better and better!
Thanks guys. The sketches were definitely fun to do, but time consuming haha but I do enjoy filling up the sketchbook for these. Appreciate it.
Beautiful footages 👍You nailed the spirit of one of my Happy Place in Scotland but as you said don't let you fool by the proximity of the ski resort as you're on your own up there and can have severe weather condition year round on a blink of an eye!
Thank you! Yes, if I had more footage, I was debating on going into Cairgorm Plateau accident from 1971. Truly an awful story and really shows you the power of the conditions up there.
@@cyruscrossan Was a very poor judgement call from the 2 "leaders" to go there with kids in the winter as it's so exposed with no escape route at all 😔I will think twice and chose a 3 days perfect window at least to even try to go there! They even demolish the shelter there to supress the false sense of security as believe me you will never ever found it in a whiteout condition anyway! It's like toundra artic condition and mountaineers going to big expedition like Everest go there for training in harsh condition!
Just done 105k up and down them mountains last week, what an experience
I hope you had a blast!
your channel is awesome. the video you share is very good. it captivates viewers..and useful tutorial thanks for sharing👍👍👍👍❤💚💙💗
Thanks for watching!
You are so underrated!

Thank you! Good luck on your upcoming walking journey!
You guys had a seriously busy trip, you must have been tired by the time you got back home! Great video as always.
We did cram in a lot 🙂. It slows down though after this haha. We took the last 3 days to just putz around Edinburgh.
Thanks for virtually taking us to Cairngorms national Park. So many beautiful views. The landscape and mountains are so over the top. Wonderful narration and perfect sketch. Have a great day my friend.
Thanks for watching! A lot of views there and can all look vastly different depending on the weather!
Cy, your award-deserving videos are splendid nature documentaries like this one on your hike to Cairn Gorm with its rare geographical landforms like the alpine semi-tundra plateau you described and your amazing artistic ability to catch these unique forms on paper! You are an awe-inspiring adventurer with your intelligent insights and depth of appreciation of nature. Happy Birthday and hope your birthday is as amazing as the inspirational nature around your hiking!
Hey thanks, it was a well spent bday in my opinion :) Super interesting landscape here, too.
Glad you had a wonderful time on your birthday with the breathtakingly magical scenery to make your special day!🏞✨
Great footage! Love your filming style
Thank you, I appreciate it.
I love the transition of the drawing into the mountain!

Your videos are getting better and better! Beautifully done!

Glamorous landscape scenery, and really touching shots.
