Brilliant video, it answered all my questions. I watched from start to finish. I'll be a 53 year old fat bloke in July when I attempt this and if all goes well I'll start off in the afternoon and come down in the early hours of the next day and IF I make it there will be a bare arsed nekid selfie of me on the Pico Ruivo under the milky way!😂 Cant wait until July 🤞
So the hike there and back was a little over 2 hours ? What was the total distance ? Great video by the way. I’m considering doing PR1.2 because I’m not sure I can handle the full PR1
Thanks! Yes I did it in a bit over 2 hours, and I'm not in the best shape. It's just over 8 kilometers total (there and back). It's a lot easier than the full PR1. That took me about 7-8 hours there and back.
I was thinking about doing this walk but it sounded like you were a bit out of breath and not sure now if I would be fit enough. I`m 73 years old and can easily do 4 or 5 miles on flat but this looks quite steep.
Sorry but I think you need to invest in a stabiliser for your filming as the rocking side to side was quite off putting, otherwise would have been useful to watch this walk
I appreciate your honest opinion. I had the camera on a chest harness. It has built in stabiliser but it's probably my wagging walk that makes it rocking from side to side 😄 I've done some more that is still waiting to be edited but I will consider in the future maybe using a camera stick instead of the harness.
Wow, the final scenes of this video show a magnificent landscape that undoubtedly makes the entire trek worth the effort.

Great video, I love this walk! What camera did you use? Quality is superb!
Thanks! It's a GoPro hero 5. I'm quite satisfied with it 😊
The added pictures is from the mobile phone I had at the time.
@@swedishsolotraveller thank you!

It is quite steep sometimes, but you should also know that my shape wasn't the best.
@@swedishsolotraveller Ok I guess the best way to find out is to try it. Excellent video btw.
