- This video features a Solo Hike and Wild Camp in the Cairngorms National Park, Grampian Mountains, Scotland. The journey begins with the ascent of Carn an Tuirc (elevation 1019m). The ascent to the top is greeted with fog, poor visibility, and strong wind, affecting navigation to the original planned destination. The decision is made to retreat and explore Carn Dubh (elevation 822m) below the cloud line, before descending and pitching the tent next to the river. Come along for the journey.

Hiking and wild camping in the Cairngorms sounds like an incredible adventure! The rugged landscapes and breathtaking views of Scotland's wilderness are truly inspiring. Thanks for sharing your journey in this majestic region! Very well done video production. You have a new subscriber. Stay safe new hiking friend! 😊
Hello, thank you for the kind words and support - really appreciate it. The Cairngorms is indeed a truly rugged and beautiful landscape. Hope to get back there soon. Some amazing footage on your recent day hikes in Kauai - keep up the great work my friend 👍🏼😊
Cool shots and interesting video👌
Thank you Robert - appreciate the support. 👍🏼😊. The Cairngorms is an amazing national park. So vast and so much to explore.
Spot on Craig, Cairngorms are a tough challenge, though I`ve never been, the remoteness, changeable weather and terrain so fair play. A wise man knows when to change his plans as getting lost in a whiteout is not enjoyable, foolishly I`ve been there when I was younger and got lucky and found my way. Keep em coming, chin chin
Thanks again for the support Dave - really appreciate it. Totally agree. The sheer sense of remoteness of the location quickly made you realise that it’s not a place mess about! Very different feel to the Lakes. Kind of glad I didn’t discover it when I was younger and dumber - no doubt be a different experience. All the best 😊
Nice wee adventure Craig. Looks like you had a great time. Have you now got the Scottish bug ? The Lake District is great, but it doesn't have the wildness and solitude of many parts of Scotland. And, of course, wild camping opportunities are endless without worrying about landowners. Thanks for taking us along.😁👍
@@huntonthetrails I couldn’t agree more. Scotland is so different than the Lake District. It feels so much more raw and wild. It’s the last true wilderness in the UK - definitely got the Scottish bug. Itching to get back and explore some more. Thanks for watching and for the kind words. All the best 👍🏼😊
Nice wild camp 🙂👍
Thanks Stig - appreciate the support my friend 😊👍🏼
Loved this trip, mate. Im hoping to go make a video in Scotland this autumn, such a beautiful place. Take it with a pinch of salt but i dont think the fade to black transitions are really needed for this type of video. Im still getting the hang of making content and editing so disregard if you like 😅
@@Chronically_Outdoors thanks for the support and kind words mate - really appreciate it. 👍🏼😊.I can imagine Scotland will be stunning in autumn 🍂. I’d highly recommend it and looking forward to seeing your video. Thanks for the suggestion on the fading. I’m always open to suggestions on how to improve the videos. Still learning and appreciate the advice my friend 😊👍🏼
@@craig-outdooradventure4632 the main reason I want to go later in the year is in hopes the midges have died down lol. You're great at talking to the camera, I think you're gonna go far bud.
I have been playing with transitions, and have settled on not using them much. I think videos like ours just look better without them. I look forward to your next video mate :)
@@Chronically_Outdoors a good strategy my friend. The bugs were pretty relentless this time of year, plenty ticks too. I genuinely appreciate the honest feedback and support buddy. Keep getting out and enjoying the outdoors 👍🏼😊
