Your videos are brilliant you look so happy and positive who wouldn’t want to climb munros after watching your videos 🏔 keep up the great work 👍
Thanks so much David! Such a lovely comment. Im certainly at my happiest roaming around the hills and it obviously shows! Thanks very much again and keep watching! Cheers. Paul.
@@PAADVENTURES1 Not a problem really enjoy your videos a joy to watch I’m just back from Ben Dorain ⛰ Soaked very boggy but loved it 😊
@@davidcalder8210 brilliant hill! That's a hill I looked at for years driving past on the road! Such a shapely big hulk and a brilliant walk up through that hanging coire. Fantastic! 👍👍😁😁
Absolutely brilliant!!!!!!!!! cheers man.
Thanks very much! Paul.
Well done Paul. Great vid,great editing, and fantastic music. And a wee dip in the river at the end brilliant 👍👍👍😎😎😎.
Copied you Tam! 😏cheers! Felt so good and my legs felt really fresh after it! Cheers mate. Paul
Fab Video.......love the climb.
Yay!
Nice one Paul. Another great vlog👌 Great when the clag lifts and ye get inversion conditions. Bring back good memories of ma trip with Robin. That wire bridge was scary with a full camping pack like 😳
Cheers Kev, watched your video before I did the walk. Kudos with the big packs like! One of my favourite walks to date I think! Cheers Kev. Orra best. Paul
Cracking day you got Paul , the Mamores are a brilliant day . I still have the two of them to do , i done the middle two Munros of the ring of steal from Kinlochleven ..its the other two i still have to do ..cracking video mate ..cheers Stevie
Thanks Stevie! It was a long hard but very memorable day! The final descent is a killer though! Cheers Paul
That was epic Paul. Loads of steep ascents and descents but the visuals were worth every breathless step. I really do enjoy your channel and videos - your good company on the hikes. It looked a bit like fairy land up there. Lovely. All the best. Mark
Thanks Mark that's so kind! My wee legs felt every metre of it! cheers and thanks again! Paul
@@PAADVENTURES1 A pleasure Paul. Good to know you got some value out of your legs.
Awesome video! Amazing views. Very cool. New follower here. Crow✌️
Thanks Crow! It's an amazing place and a beautiful walk! Thanks for the sub!! Cheers paul
Did the devil’s ridge solo in winter conditions in Oct 94 ish. Walking off into Glen Nevis I got the piss taken out of my bright goretex jacket and salopettes by English knights on the set of Braveheart. One of the more surreal days on the hills.
One of the strangest wee hill stories I think I have heard Richard! I would love to do the walk in winter conditions. Did you do the full ring of steall walk or just a section? I think in winter the full walk would be a long day! Cheers Paul
@@PAADVENTURES1 nah I did Sgor Chalum to Shor an lubhair and across to Sgurr a Mhaim and down into Ben Nevis. Deep soft snow so knackering and yeah it was bonkers walking through the set in full winter kit surrounded by film crew and cast members, no sign of MG though!
I've been waiting on this all week. I know you said you were a little nervous about this walk so soon after your recent illness, but I had every confidence in you😊!!
Another great video of a great walk. Well done again👍💪👏!!
Thanks John! I was a bit worried but ended up sailing round. Felt great and really enjoyed it. The absolutely worst part is the final descent, it was a killer! Hows things? You getting out? Paul
John,
Would you recommend the kingshouse or the clachaig for a wee weekend away? What was better? Ta p
@@PAADVENTURES1 I'll send you an e-mail.
Cheers John!
Great film paul some day out and you got the views to match mate brilliant!!! And yes that was the exact spot you pointed out about the cramp the worst ever at the aworst place to get it halfway round The Ring of Steall couldnt make it up Paul honestly ha ha! Well done Paul this is great film 10/10 from me mate 👍👍👍👍👍!
Wow thanks Peter! That means alot!,, never thought that when I started this wee journey I would ever get to do this kind of walk! Thanks a million mate! Your one of my inspirations for all this! Paul
Fantastic video Paul. Very well put together - enoyed that. stay safe!
Cheers! It's hard to get it wrong with such amazing scenes! Cheers man! Paul
Awe, absolutely fabulous, what an amazing day, amazing scenery, breathtaking views well done paul.
Thanks for the mention. 😊😊
Thank you for the wee bit help!
😊
Fabulous video Paul, loved all the special effects. Attention to detail was excellent. Well done Kate too 🤩📽⛰🎶
Thanks Abi! It was a great day! And thanks for my fish supper!
Super cool Paul! Really liked the dragons back scrammbly section which had some lord of the rings vibes. Cracking video!
Thanks Nicola! Am Bodach is an amazing hill and steep steep steep! It looked like some stone dragon had crash landed on the side of the hill and exploded into a thousand rocky shards! Cheers Paul
Good evening Paul, what an absolute beauty of a video to end our day with, stunning looking route and a fair looking bit of weather too. Loved the dragons back section especially. Stunning 360 too, loved the clouds hanging over the summits. Really lovely Paul, thanks for sharing, Ceri and Kat 🗻👍♥️☕
Thanks guys! this is a visually stunning and wild place. If you ever get back to Scotland defo give this a go! cheers again and thanks for the watch...Besties. Paul.
Fabulous Paul! Beautiful scenery!
Thanks Kelly! It's not hard when everything is so stunning.
So many wonderful moments in this video. The views kept changing, and we so incredible. The earlier part of the video was great too, with the fun bridge and stream. Walking those narrow ridges between the Munros looked so beautiful, with full time views on both sides. Incredible day!
Thanks so much guys! This is a classic mountain walk and one that I have cancelled in the past so was so happy to get round! The Mamores are amazing hills and such a special place. Its hard not to be in awe when you are walking around this horseshoe. Thanks for watching and thanks for the comments! cheers again. Paul.
Nice one Paul , thanks for sharing
Thank you! Had been saving this walk up for the right day! Cheers Paul
@@PAADVENTURES1 worst time of the year for walking for me with the schools on holiday , be out most days when there back
@@Alabamafwee everywhere is busy and getting your car parked can be crazy just now!
Great video again Paul, nicely put together 😁 ring of steall must be one of my favourites already, apart from the dreaded walk out 😂
Atb, James
Thanks very much James! its an amazing walk eh and will definitely go down as a favourite. The descent is killer and I was so glad that we did the road part in the morning. Cheers and thanks again! Paul.
Great stuff Paul. This is a truly amazing route. I remember really struggling going up Am Bodach! You were wise to park at lower Glen Nevis. We didn’t and had that walk at the end which was a killer after 9 hours! Love the “ohh” bit at the end with the dip in the water. I bet that felt good !!!
Thanks Andrew...what a walk! Hard but really memorable. That was Colin's idea and at the end I could have hugged him! That water was amazing! So good for the muscles and a nice way to end the day! Cheers again and thanks for the support. Paul
When I did it we parked at lower glen nevis but went in the opposite direction so had the long slog back up to the lower car park at the end. The end of a great week in Feb 2010 with cold clear days all week , the avalanche risk in the corries and on the climb approaches was 4+ most of the week so we were stuck with ridge walks.
Wow mate some absolutely stunning views there. Can’t beat it when the cloud lingers over the hill like that, brilliant👌🏻 When I done those hills there was some Salomon race going on and we had a tonne of runners throwing themselves down them, madness lol. Great video mate😊 Cheers, Mark
Thanks Mark. Fantastic day out and to think that people run around this is crazy! All the best.....Paul
Hi Paul, thank you for another excellent video, this brought back many happy memories from what has been one of the best walks / climbs of my life.
One point for the unwary: you finished the video at the peak of number 4 (Sgurr a' Mhaim). When we did this we were out for about ten hours, and I remember the descent from number 4 back to the car was a real slog, perhaps nearly 3 hours, over uneasy terrain. A shame in a way because up to the fourth peak it was just continuous enjoyment.
There is always something...........
Thanks again, J
Thanks John, that's really kind and like you this is probably been one of my favourite walks...you are absolutely right, the descent was horrendous!,, it took us over an hour and a half to get down. One wee fella in front of us fell three times in his haste to get back! I have to admit that both my camera batteries and mic died at the top and I died at the bottom! Thanks again Paul
Fantastico brilliant as always...💪😃
You coming with me the next time? .😀
Spectacular Paulo! Really nerve-wracking at times but what amazing views! We can't wait to get to Glencoe with kids next month...won't be as dramatic as your walks of course but can't wait to show off their homeland to them!!
Thanks so much! The Mamores are a very special place and well worth a visit up into glen nevis to the steall falls. Quite quick and relatively easy even for the wee ones. Hopefully catch yous up! Paul
A classic round. Very enjoyable commentary, helpful pointing out what could be seen from the various vantage points. Your videos are full of information. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Charles! One of my favorite walks in this Munro journey so far! The descent from the last Munro is a killer though 🥴🥴the wee dip in the river helping the legs after it! Thanks again mate! Paul
It’s one I’d like to do. You can see from your video why it is so popular. That descent looks tough on the knees.
@@charlesrobert9527 it’s a stoater! You any plans on the long drive back up north?
Yes, driving up next week and aiming for Skye. I booked a guide last year to do the Munro’s. Couldn’t have done them without their help. Anyway I just thought Skye was fabulous and whilst I was after bagging the Munro’s I thought another visit was justified before I get too much longer in the tooth. So hoping to attempt a traverse of the Black Cuillin. May be a step too far!
Will base myself in Skye for three weeks but hoping to to take a look at the Munro’s just to the east of Skye. Haven’t done any of them except Beinn Sgritheall.
Are you heading that way over the next few weeks by any chance?
@@charlesrobert9527 fantastic mate!! That will be an epic trip! Skye is amazing as you know! We have a guide booked for 4 days the last week in May for the cuillin! I can’t wait. Planned a trip on the weekend of the 22nd with the guys to do An Teallach and Liatach. Not sure of next week though. Will see what the weather brings. Was up near Ullapool yesterday for a wee single Munro 👍
Absolutely love it... Loved the falls.. Stunning.... What a place.... Would love to do this walk.... I need to get to Scotland.... How would I find good walk etc etc... Some info please.... Stay safe my friend.....
Thanks mate! The best place to start is probably walk highlands website. A huge source of information for almost every walk in Scotland! Thanks again for your. Paul
@@PAADVENTURES1 thank you Paul... What exactly is this walk called please...I'm on summer break now from school.... Need to do some exploring....
@@bobmarley6161 the walk is called the Ring of Steall. It's in a group of hills called the Mamores which is situated between Glencoe and fort William area. Search for ring of steall and you should find lots of info! It's a big walk! Cheers Paul
@@PAADVENTURES1 awesome.... Thank you I think I just need to go through your videos and pick out some walks... Absolutely stunning....
Excellent stuff Paul. I remember crossing Devils Ridge, years ago, as I recall there is fissure which you have to step across? As a Scottish mountain, newbie, in those days, I seem to remember finding that a little daunting.
Yeah Richard there is a fissure just before the last ascent. It was all misty at this point and wee did attempt it but ended up on the bypass path which I think was more exposed! Cheers again for watching and thanks for the support. All the best, Paul
How long did it take youn
All in 8 hours 55 minutes. I do slow every one up with filming though! 😀cheers Paul
Long day including traveling time, enjoying your content…cheers
Yeah! 6 hours drive on top! Slept like a log. Thanks! Paul
