Sgurr na Stri - Wild Camping Adventure | Isle of Skye | Perhaps the finest view of the Cuillin Ridge
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 жов 2019
- Perhaps the finest view of the Cuillin ridge, Sgurr na Stri may be a small hill in comparison to its surroundings, but its location above Loch Coruisk gives it the perfect view of the whole Cuillin ridge. This could well be the most spectacular summit view in Scotland! For an adventurous route in, arrive by boat - weather depending, there's a frequent seasonal service from Elgol.

A new film, at least a new one to me as I must have missed it first time around. Fair enjoyed it, cheers.
Hehe! I wish it was a new film Alan! Should have some new ones soon though! Thanks for your message and for watching. All the best L&D 😊🤙
Great video guys - thanks
Thanks Tylaar. 😊🙏
Thanks so much for the video.... it has given me confidence to do Sgurr na Stri from Loch Coruisk. Going at the start of May and cannot wait.
Hey Shuunya, that’s a lovely message and very nice to hear how our little trip has helped dampen down any concerns you may have had. 😊🙏
Amazing view! It's a bit like the Norwegian fjords.
Totally agree.. this was a great adventure. Hopefully we can get to Norway next year.
Epic video. I'd love to be able to do what you guys do but can only visit once or twice a year from NW england. I was there last month, went with misty Isles boats. One of the most beautiful places I've ever seen. So glad I stumbled accross your channel.
We’re very lucky to live in Scotland. I hank you for watching, and enjoying our wee video. 😊👍
Tak it hame. Well said, really enjoyed it, stunning scenery. New subscriber guys, thanks 👍🏻
Thank you Simon. Really important message these days sadly. Have a super weekend. 😊🙏
What a marvelous place! Thanks so much for the beautiful and healthy escapism that your videos provide!
Thank you 🙏 Julie
Well,that brings a new interpretation to not getting out bed the wrong side....🤦♂️. Despite everything what a beautiful spot to overnight and a cracking video to boot. A subscriber 👍🏼..😷🙏.
Hi Fraser.. Thanks, glad you enjoyed it. 🙏 😊
Crossing the Bad Step when it's wet. That's something to boast about ! Well done.
Loved the video! We are the Americans you met at the boat dock. The Black Cuilllins ended up being one of my favorite places in Scotland, hope to come back and explore more some day!
Corinne Sayler Woooop! Hey, how was the run? Was very nice to meet you both. We’re so happy you managed to get to see that awesome view in by the Loch! Thank you for watching the film. Pop over and follow our FB and Instagram, may help you for when you are planning your next trip to Scotland! 😂😀👍🏴
On the Adventure Trails - Scotland the run was great and the Bad Step was easy, looking forward to coming back!
Amazing, great trip 🏴👍🏻
Thanks, was great fun and one we've wanted to do for a while. :-)

Another fantastic adventure for you two. The locations you choose.. the content you put in and the views you capture makes watching your video's an absolute pleasure. Thank you for sharing. Gary
Hi Gary, What a lovely comment. Really is appreciated ! :-) Mrs will like this comment.... :-)
Hi Guys once again thanks for sharing. I've visited Skye perhaps 20 time over the last 35 years. Love the Elgol / Loch Coruisk area. There is a great little walk from the carpark at Kilmarie into Camasunary Bay. Suitable for the less fit of us. The views are also spectacular of the bay, Loch Coruisk and the Cuillin beyond. Best wises.
Hey William, Yeah we know that route, I think any way you go in is superb. We ran along the coast a couple of years ago and loved it. I’m sure this won’t be our last trip! Have a great day! 😀🙏
Stunning views David!! Cracking place to camp! Love a wee boat trip as well, i can see that one being busy with the views at the drop off point as well. Cheers, Kris.
Thank you Kris... will wait for your film of this trip.. love the narration on your films. 😀👌
I need to find that spot! This is a fantastic video! Send coordinates 😅😂
It’s not hard to find!! 😂
Epic location, and very good filming
Thank you, very much appreciated. :-)
Love when you guys post! Absolutely brilliant videos everytime

Enjoyed that thankyou.. shame about the weather coming in for some more shots. But at least you got some fantastic footage...looked really cosy in the tent camping on the edge and what a perfect pitch. Many thanks for sharing. Another great video..take care Alan Gregory adventures 👍🤗🤗👍
Alan, Thanks for watching. Waiting on more of Scotland from you ?!?! :-)
A cracking video for sure. Like the hanging harness for the jet boil. I have never seen one before. Scenery was beautiful. Take care, Al

Thank you so much. Really appreciate your comment! 😀🙏 Yeah it’s a really lovely area of the world... can’t wait to return.
Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful adventure with us all. This is indeed one of the most scenic places in Scotland, and one no doubt I will never get the chance to see in real life. It was wonderful even in the grey weather I have watched other videos of this location in the past and it always looks stunning ! Thanks again :D Teddy
Superb, thank you for watching and taking the time to comment. 😀🙏
Thoroughly enjoyed guys... inspiring as always...atb
Superb Douglas, thanks for watching our wee films. :-)
Braw trip guys. What a view, I'll need to get myself up there.
Great to see another UA-camr putting in the LNT message too.
Cheers

Walk With Wallace 👣 Thanks mate, this ones been on the list for a long time now we’ve made space for something else in that list! 😀😂
Yeah I think it’s really important to try and do our bit and spread the #TakItHame #LeaveNoTrace message. Thanks again for supporting us, much appreciated! 😀🙏
Well done guys love the vid keep them coming. We not been out for a while hope to get out soon this inspire us and keeps us going ATB A/S.b
Thanks Angie and Scott .. .we've a few more waiting to be edited... :-)
What an amazing video . Watched every second of this adventure with professional editing Dave . Great choice of music and full of useful information , you had me captured for 15 minutes . A thumbs up for all the effort and sharing Dave . Well done 👍.
Hey Lee, Thanks mate.. nice to know we are holding the attention for most to the end. The real star of the show is of course the Scottish scenery! :-)
Guys your videos are always amazing! My wife is my best pal and she is starting to get into hillwalking slowly but surely, your videos are a great help! So keep it up 🙌😊
That’s a great message to read.. thank you sir! 😀🙏 Nothing better for me than to have my best mate and Mrs alongside sharing awesome moments together. Merry Christmas 🎄 to you both from us both! 😀🙏🎄🎁
Cracking video again guys. It's a destination firmly on my map for my visit to Skye later this month. I'll probably come at it the long way in from Sligachan...but we'll have to see what the weather brings. Good work on the litter message there. And also, great to see your channel developing and growing. Nice work.
Julian, Thank you very much. It appears that its growing nicely. We're learning lots about filming. All the best for your trip to Skye and please feel free to message us on our FB page with your pictures, we'll do a wee post. :-)
@@ontheadventuretrails-scotl9389 That's most kind of you. Thanks!
Great guys thanks love watching all your vids I love to go away climbing an hiking it would be great if you can do a gear review on the things you use one day like wen go on a bivi hike 🇬🇧👍🏽
Hopefully we'll get round to that at some point. :-) Thanks for taking the time to comment. :-)
after watching murrays vid i was disheartened to see how tough his route was, but this looks like i could make it. thanks for posting your adventures.
There’s also a a route in from Sligachan. Probs get it on Walk Highlands website. Thanks for watching. 😊🙏
Terrific video. Thanks for sharing. Do you mind me asking the purpose of suspending your cook system, rather than placing it on the ground? Cheers.
😊🙏 Thank you for watching. No specific reason just trying it out and messing around.
Bit late seeing this but fantastic as always.Beautiful drone shots.Huge thanks for highlighting the 'leave no trace' moto.It's becoming a huge problem,sadly..
Stay safe and best wishes to you both from Devon
Hey Jamie! Better late than never hehe! Thank you for watching! 😀🙏 Yes the whole littering issue is currently horrible! #leavenotrace
Thanks so much for sharing your adventure!!! How long does it take from the jetty to the top?
Hey thank you! Probably a couple of hours depending on how much faffing you do along the way… we do loads lol 😂 🤙🙌
Nice one folks and great video - brought back some smashing memories:) it’s an amazing spot 👌
Thanks for the mention :) - if you watch my next vlog - you may find this reciprocated 😉👌👍
Take care
ATB
Murray
Scotland's Mountains Hi Murray.. thank you. I must also say that it was your film that steered me onto this..I’ve added it to the end screen, the one the inspired us! So, thank you for the inspiration to make our own memories! 😀🙏 Lisa & David
On the Adventure Trails - Scotland it’s an amazing spot - one of the best !👌👌 can’t wait to get back there one day 😊
Great footage! Took the Bella Jane for a day trip last year in July and was blown away. Vowed I’d return. Did you summit not having to negotiate the “bad step”? Presume you walked part way round the loch and up inland side of the hill? Would love to return and summit but don’t fancy the long walk in from Sligachan. How long did it take to summit from Loch Coruisk please?
Hi Jayne, thanks for watching! The bad step is on the coastal path, not far from where we went but not on the same path. Defo take the boat back in and follow our route up. Can’t remember how long it took us but it wasn’t that long nor difficult, we also do a lot of faffing. You’d need to check but I’m sure you could do it in a day using the boat. 😊🙏
Fabulous! I want to do that trip next year. Did you have to pay extra to have your individual return trip to Elgol?
David Roby thank you 🙏 😀 We paid for a round trip, so long as you tell them your plan it’s no problem. You just need to be on time. 😊👍
Surprised you managed to find somewhere to pitch up
Neil Irwin there were a few but a little tricky, yeah. Thank you for watching. 😊🙏
Great video!! but taking the boat is cheating 🙂, need to do the hike from Sligachan.
Hi Matthew, hahaha we once ran to coastal route over the bad step. Hope that meets with your approval. 😂👍
Love the video! How long did it take you to get to the location at 6:17?
searchandupload Hey! thank you very much! 😀🙏..
I actually can’t remember but it wasn’t long! We take our time as much as we can to enjoy the views and obviously do a little filming. Sorry I can’t be more specific on that one.
Great stuff guys and glad you got the chance to experience a cam up there. It is a magical place for a camp and what a great film you made of the trip. Atb
Cheers Ray. :-)
Awesome video! We are planning to do the same trip, but have found out, that it is prohibited to leave a car overnight at Elgol parking. Where did you leave your car? :)
Thank you. We actually left it at the carpark. You’re using the village services and unless it’s the height of season I don’t think it’s a problem. I could be wrong! 😀👍
@@ontheadventuretrails-scotl9389 thanks for the reply! well, i think June is already a high season :) i will email a boat service to check with them, maybe they will suggest something
Where exactly on the Loch is 4:00? Hoping to get married there and it would be a great location!
It’s basically where you cross the stream a short walk from where the boat drops you off. You won’t miss it!
can you tell me where to get a good map for this hike or send a link of the route etc? we would like to do a short/hike scramble up part of Sgurr Na Stri and back down, could we do a small scramble up a small part of the way and then back down to the boat dock in say 3 hours? We don't know if we will have much more time than that etc. We are doing a guided hike the next day from glenbrittle to the Inaccessible Pinnacle or that area of the Cullin but were hoping to squeeze this in also the day before but we will probaby have to get the 12:30pm boat from Elgol over which might get us there closer to 1:30/2pm and then the last boat back at 5pm so we might not have that much more time than 3 hours....
Hi Justine, getting all the way up and back down might be a bit tight with the time you have! There’s plenty of things to do and see around Loch Curuisk though. You could walk out to the ‘bad step’ and back or play around in the Dubh Slabs.
Heres a link to a route that looks similar to ours. www.ukhillwalking.com/logbook/r/?i=1237
I would say though. Save this one for when you have more time. It deserves to not be rushed. You’ll know what I mean when you do it. Cheers. Dave
Thanks for sharing, we’re considering this hike in October. Is this a shorter option compared from leaving from Schlighan ?
Emily Little I’d say it is, off the top of my head...but I’d need to look into it. It’s definitely more fun and more interesting. 😀👍
On the Adventure Trails - Scotland thanks for the quick reply! Just had a look on the OS maps app and it reckons 3 hours there and back to the landing station.
Emily Little yeah about that and it’s not that hard going.
Is it safe to camp up there, heard there's wolves and grizzly bears running amok in Skye
So long as one of you stay awake on guard duty throughout the night! You’ll be fine!! 🤙
Fisheater
Hahaha how the hell are you !!! 😀😂
All good bud...love the videos
So you are one of the huge motorhomes clogging up the roads of Skye? You could have walked from Elgol and traversed the Bad Step to reach Loch Coruisk.
Gordon Stalker for a moment I thought you were being serious!
