Part 2 of my wild camping experience at Loch Lomond. Strolled along to the other side of the beach to enjoy a slightly different view. One of the lads down from me offered me a shot of his jetski which I did not turn down. Absolutely terrifying experience when he went above 23mph, but a wonderfully refreshing and unique one around that speed. The water was a wonderful temperature to paddle in and the air temperature and sun certainly added to it. Can't wait to visit this spot again.

How gorgeous is that nature's TV in those surroundings..wow
I regularly visit this spot as well :) Would love to do it in the snow.
Lovely loch lommond
I might be going there very soon for a camp :)
Nice one Monty. Jetskies are awesome. Last time I had a go was on honeymoon 11 years ago. How time flies. Cool vid!
It was an incredibly different experience and made me feel very alive. Would definitely do it again and you can rent them at Loch Lomomd. What speeds did you hit?
@@MontyOutdoors I'm not sure really. My wife was on the back. Screaming 😄
Very nice! :)x
Thank you! 😊
great to see part 2
Cheers Sonny. Glad you enjoyed, mate. A bit differently to my other videos, what with a jetski being involved lol.
Lovely peaceful vid that one cheers 👌
Cheers mate!
Two great vids there Monty. Enjoyed them. Didn't look like you were too bombarded with midges either for a change.
Thanks, Des. There were midges but a tolerable number that deet and a fire can't handle. Then a breeze appeared. Had to take a day off work from this trip. Very tiring.
Wow looks like it was fantastic 👍
Fantastic is an understatement, mate. It was bliss and helped my mood massively. So excited for this weekend. Thanks for watching 😁
Great video's Monty does look fantastic was going to got for a swim in Wales Monday but chicken out too cold lol take care. John
Too cold!? The water is warm and I can only imagine it being warmer in Wales, mate!
Another great video. Cheers 👍
Thanks, Gordon. Just about to upload a new one tonight. Hope all is well, mate.
Thats more the weather I enjoy camping in 😂. I am 6'3" too and not sure I would enjoy that wee tent.
It's a superlight experience and handy with a tarp/tent configuration, but it's a pain in the ass to get into lol. Easy to put up and put by though! I liked changing my setup, good for my channel too as it helps people decide what they want to do.
Jelious much 😍
Give it a go, Kate ☺
I love camping and get away when I can, last few times just been local due to covid
get yourself a hammock m8, you wont go back!
I am thinking about it as I have a company who are willing to supply me one :)
wouldnt mind a wee night here big man, lovely spot
You camped on a mountain before sir?
@@MontyOutdoors it's on my to do list my good man.
Whats happening monty boy. Looks class. Right across the loch from u is cruach tairbet. Finally got out and happy to say got my summit camp this weekend 🙌
Slowly recovering after a period of being unwell. How's things with you? Still down in London? Brilliant mate! Where did you head off to? Get a UA-cam blog going!
Halcyon days auld chap.....
One of my favourite camping experiences. Warm sunshine, cool loch, and a bliss environment!
ok not gonna lie at 0.55 it does look like ur watching them from afar like some horror film :) but all good (joking of course lol) glad ur veggie now ;)
I've been veggie for like 4 years mate.
im going up to loch lomond this summer, where abouts can i find this little beach area?
Hi mate. Send me an e-mail - bigmontyoutdoors@gmail.com - and once my stream is done/tomorrow I will send you the location with guidance.
Cracking video mate and a beautiful spot would it be possible to park up and kayak to there from inversnaid hotel carpark?
The Inversnaid car park is free and I've never had any issues parking there. I'd imagine for an experienced kayaker it would be doable. It's about 3km from Inversnaid to that spot so can't see it being an issue. You can just about make out Inversnaid in my video when I am swimming. I've got myself a kayak, but I've yet to use it. I need something to inflate it and fancy staying on that island at Loch Ard: Eileen Gorm?
Im suprised you stayed there mate did you get any peace n quite ? all i could hear was soemone coughing n throwing there guts up and cars reving engines up
It wasn't a car engine, it was a Jet Ski. There were a few lads further up Nice guys. Although my intention was to be alone, their company was great. There wasn't anywhere nearby that I could go to.
Really enjoyable video to watch again , what are you using to film them , fantastic quality ...
Cheers mate. Have you been out with the dog? And a Samsung S20 believe it or not!
Looked like you are having a great time Monty. Is that North or south of Inversnaid. Well done.
Cheers, Steve. It's about 2 hours south of Inversnaid. Gorgeous walk and will try to the north soon. There has to be spots to the north too!?
What’s the name of that bug tent mate didn’t quite catch what you called it ✌️
Yeah, I have an exceptionally thick Scottish accent that alienates my audience. Even Scottish people struggle haha.
That's the Geertop inner. They used to sell it separately, but not anymore:

There's loads of alternatives online though.
@@MontyOutdoors I’m Scottish 🤣✌️
@@harrykennedy9778 😂 I have a combination between a west coast, east coast, and Weegie accent. I love it 😂
@@MontyOutdoors enjoy yer coffee sent you one today mate ✌️
@@harrykennedy9778 Aye mate. Thanks so much. I acknowledged it on your other comment.
What do you reckon about the Coyote 3? Just used my Jackal 3 at Loch Macaterick after you recommended parking at Stinchar Bridge this weekend, was well nice. Cheers for the info
The Coyote 3 is an excellent tent. I used it in constant 60-65mph winds and sustained rainfall and it stood up. The video is actually on my insta. Hopefully this works: instagram.com/p/CAZ9tmFhroY/?igshid=3yrdy0rmvaex
Very spacious, but heavy at around 4kg, but I love it. Outer pitch 1st too which is a bonus.
Brilliant mate. How long was the walk and how good was the experience?
@@MontyOutdoors was absolutely ruthless. Went from the car park up to the top of Cornish hill then top of Craigmasheenie then across all the bogs to the beach bit on Macaterick. Probably the hardest physical thing I've ever done, went with two mates one of who is military so he proper put us through our paces. Took 4 1/2 hours to do 6km so was pretty ruthless, burnt about 4500 cals with 20k steps. Thinking of going somewhere on the Scottish coast next. Funny thing is we were making jokes about thanking Monty for the information so you def had 3 fans traipsing round Galloway on Saturday singing your praises.
@@dfgndfghdfghdfgh Fuck sake haha. It's easier had just followed the path from the Loch Doon side, but I have done a similar walk to the one you did, but that *only* last about 45 minutes.
West coast... there's lots of beaches between Ayr and Stranraer. Google "Balcreuchan Port" and there's also a cave there called "Sawney Bean's Cave".
Cheers mate. My channel is about sharing and learning. I've only been doing this for about 18 months but my geography is pretty good.
Was that path part of the West Highland way
Could have sworn I replied to this sorry. Yes, mate. It's between Inversnaid and the Rowchoish bothy.
Hi there , was that part of the west highland way ,
Dn1873
Aye mate. I left from Inversnaid as you may see from part 1 😀. Thanks for watching.
is that a Duo Mid inner tent? I have that thing with the outer shell. My best tent.
Geertop mate. Pretty much the exact same.
