    It's a good climb, do it a few times a week. It's called Criffel though not The Criffel. Good vid.

    Good morning guys, thanks so much for this video, we popped it on with tea and breakfast, what a great day out and beautiful weather for it too! From a wet and windy Wiltshire, this was a very much needed dose of adventure and exploring the great outdoors this morning 🌞. Looks like you had a great day, smashing video! Those veiws are absolutely stunning, bet it was toasty out off the trees! The lochs looked great on the way up too, wow! Great quality footage, loved the return loop and the bluebells too, stunning! Have a great weekend, Ceri and Kat ♥️🌞☕👍

      Good morning Ceri and Kat!👋 oh wow thank you so much for taking the time to watch our video over your tea and breakfast! Love that🥰. So glad you enjoyed it and it brought a little of the Scottish sunshine to Wiltshire😁👍. We really were so lucky with the weather that week and we both fell in love with the area, so beautiful but also so quiet, lots of places just to disconnect in nature with a green space all to ourselves. Pete is pleased you liked the bluebell shot, he almost left that out in the edit. Have a great weekend guys and we hope the weather improves for you! Take care Shel and Pete😁👍

    Fantastic video both!! I have got to get myself upto Scotland this year, I do have a few plans... 😏
    Was supposed to be up there a few times last year but, well you can guess how those plans went lol.
    Looks amazing there and looked like you had a superb time! Views were incredible indeed!!
    You definitely had some fantastic weather there, very lucky 😀
    What a cool rock to chill on in the sun on the summit 😎
    What gorgeous scenery you had from down by the Loch 👌🏻👌🏻
    and glad you managed to cool down in there too.
    Brilliant video both loved every minute ❤
    Take care and enjoy the rest of your Sunday.

      Hey Chris!👋 we did have the best week away in Scotland, really adored the area as it was so quiet🥰 we are hoping to get up to the West highlands for a week in September too, a totally different landscape but we love the mountains there. We climbed Ben Nevis for the first time last year, was amazing🥰. We would love to see your Scotland video i am sure you would have a great adventure up there. A must do for every outdoor enthusiast! If you get to wild Camp Loch evive from the old Glen coe Road is one of the most beautiful spots we have ever been to🥰. Thanks so much for watching it really does mean a lot to us. Take care and have a great week😊👍

    Fantastic walk both. And good you making best use of the spectacular weather and location. I just checked it out - almost 600 meters the Criffel. Awesome views albeit it a bit hazy. I liked the loop to and the drop down to the Loch. That was refreshing. Well, good going sun and all. Mark
