- Red house bothy (located in the Cairngorms National park) is Scotlands newest bothy. I planned to hike deep into the cairngorms to find this bothy and spend the night. Join me for an adventure
Quick anti-mouse remedy: either tea-tree oil or eucalyptus oil. Sprinkle some of either of these in their direction. They really hate these!
Thanks, will have a look at that for the future. All the best😊
What a fantastic Bothy man. Thanks for sharing with us, cheers, John. 😀😃
Thanks John, really appreciate the support 🙏
Another fantastic adventure that put a smile on my face! Cant wait for summer that seems to have averted us this year
Thanks man, me too mate. Surely were due some good weather soon🤞
Another top quality presentation, cheers .
Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed it🙏
The house you point at 3 minutes in was occupied by what may have been the last of the '45 Jacobite highland army of Charles Edward Stuart: Peter Grant, aka Auld Dubrach. Later, he had a British soldier billeted with him, which must have made for an interesting conversations. In 1822, he was introduced to King George IV. He died aged 110.
Who gives a crap that he met a king. I can't stand how people worship celebrities and royal families.
Hmmmmmmm, i think i would have laid my bed out on the floor in front of the fire, and closed the doors to the rest of the rooms, seeing you had the place to yourself
That was an awesome looking Bothy
Great video, you certainly got 'lucky' in having the place to yourself.
Thanks mate. I certainly did, I think it’s a quite a busy bothy normally

Yes, it will be due to the walk-in.
I should be up that way later this year and I'll plan a route to cycle past it.
Cheers.
Is it weird that I'm Scottish and think, 'your accent is excellent, what an accent!!'
Hi Gregor, superb mate, what a Bothy and what a stunning location. As bothies go, that is pretty luxurious, it’s better than all of the Travelodges! 🤣🤣 ⛰🥾🏕️🏴
😂😂 100% better than a travel lodge. Slightly better location aswell haha. All the best 😊
Really great channel. Good to see your enthusiasm and sense of humour.
Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed it
Hello Gregor, I have just recently discovered your videos and I'm really enjoying them. I paticularly like the fact that you give the viewer a real opportunity to soak up the views with little commentary and just let the camera do all the work. Keep up the good work and I look forward to your future adventures.
Thanks mate. Glad you enjoy the adventures 😊
love to see some more bothy trips, four hikers going to the toilet block in that bothy, three of them all together in the see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil poses and the fourth lucky one just outside, smell no evil
😂😂
Agree with how terrible this summer has been 😂 dreadful.. must be due a heatwave in August..
I have never stayed in a bothy but if I was ever to stay in one then this would be the one, great video 😁
Thanks mate. Here’s hoping the weather improves 😂😂. Good luck with the rest of your munros, hopefully you get some better weather for the run in😊
Great video mate 👏🏻⛺️
Well done lad...
100% respect 4 ya...
Keep up da guid work...!!!!🙏❤️🙏😎💯🏴
Was in there a few weeks ago when I did the two Munro’s at the back of it. Absolutely beautiful and one to visit. You were lucky to have it on your own
Love it, as always. More bothies, more wild camping for sure! Please 😂
Awesomeness ❤
Thanks for the kind words, plenty more adventures to come👍
nice one pal looks a cracking bothy, keep[ up the good work. Atb Wullie
Chicken and mushroom pot noodle on the go. The best kind.
Also, featuring haribo again. You should be advertising for both my son 😂
😂😂 I wish
Keep climbing those peaks and conquering those trails, one pot noodle at a time!
Stay wild and keep hiking!
nice one mate, looked like a cracking hike and bothy camp. if you are ever back up in skye then pop into the brewery in uig to say hello!
Thanks mate. The bothy is great isn’t it. All the best 😊
I love your adventures, man. You asked, so... I'd love to see you hit up more bothys. I'm from the US, and we just don't have anything like bothys out here. Thanks for sharing these trips with us, man!
Thanks for the support brother. Will try to do more bothy videos in the future 👍😊
Cheers Gregor, certainly is a lovely place and was fortunate to visit it earlier this year too.
ATB 👍
Thanks Dave. The support is much appreciated😊🙏
The scenery looks fabulous, I'm assuming there could be other people there! As for sharing a triple toilet... No thanks 😅😮
Yeh I just got lucky this time in getting the place to myself. I know, the toilet was an interesting one😂
Beautiful views. I've been through Aviemore but not in this area. Try Sainsbury's Pasta Pots, amazing Mac and Cheese amongst other flavours. Posh loos, maybe needs an air vent. Lol. Sweet dreams and now homeward bound. Love the video. 🙏🙏👍💛👍🙏🙏 💯💯
It might be Scotland but no denying that there's been a vast increase in rainfall over the last 12 months.Usually you get stable periods of high pressure but since July 2023 began we've hardly had one rain free day and pretty much constant Atlantic low pressure systems for over 12 months now .To be honest I've never known anything like it.
Wonderful video. Ive been through Aviemore but never this area. Beautiful views. Try Sainsbury's Pasta Pots. Mac and Cheese, other flavours too. You should try tyhem. Super bothy. Nice toilets but maybe could do with air vents. Lol. Sweet dreams and now homeward bound. 🙏👍👍💛👍👍🙏💯💯
Another great one, thanks Gregor. I simply couldn't imagine sitting with two strangers, elbow to elbow, to open my bowels, what a nightmare!
😂😂 would definitely be an interesting experience. Thanks for the support 😊
Yeah I think I'd either wait or head off into some heather with my trowel instead 😬
That’s a cracking bothy! We stayed in one not long ago and it had a full on kitchen, beds and everything. Got a video on my channel of it, was super cool. Hoping to do another bothy trip soon! Although we are a family of 6 and not sure I would do it as a solo female! Thanks for a great video, love watching others exploring the Scottish Wilderness as well!
Thanks for the kind words. Glad you enjoyed it😊
Hi. Nice video. Brings back memories from May 2023 when I had the privilege of staying there when I snagged the last bunk available - it was during the TGO Challenge and the place was heaving.
Yes, full credit and kudos to the MBA on a fantastic renovation. Prior to their restoration I believe it was a ruin, uninhabitable even as an emergency shelter?
You should start a poll with the title of Best Bothy For Bang For Your Buck, in terms of effort to get there with reward of destination!
It's a contender for sure.
Abyssinia? 90minutes to 2 hours easy walk in and fairly flat.
Ryovan? 60minute easy walk in.
Cast your votes!!
Regards, Wadi
Thanks wadi. It’s a great bothy isn’t it. That’s a really good idea, need to visit a few more to make the decision myself👍
Nice wee vid lad. And no click bait headlines this time 👍
That entire area is slowly coming back to life as the trees re-establish themselves. It’s nice now, but in the future this will be a three dimensional bio-diverse wonderland.
Oh I feel for you buddy about the weather. Here in the U.S. we are having record heat and storms. Millions of people are without electricity. In California my house and car have been using a lot of air conditioning which is expensive. I have been trying to limit the amount of use of that though so around the house I have just been walking around with shorts on haha. Within the last 15 years I have never seen such climate change. Each year seems to get worse unfortunately. I'm getting old I am 39 but at least I am not heavy or elderly. People who are obese and elderly are really having a hard time with the heat. I feel bad for them. Keep up the great videos though and try to stay positive.
Send some of that weather over to us please😂😂. Thanks for the support mate🙏
Bit windy and rainy but,as you said, it is Scotland. Spectacular view . thanks a lot for sharing.
What another fantastic video mate such a wonderful channel just subscribed to your channel love from Dublin
Cheers brother. All the best😊
Amazing video mate!! Yet another peaceful and beautiful adventure 🫡 I remember you checking out this bothy on your previous long journey, still seems as new and clean.
Yeh still in great condition. Thanks for the support brother 😊
Ŕeally enjoyable to watch, full of good humour and beautiful scenery. Like the way the Bothy is all natural pine wood and stone. Yes, would like to see more bothy, camping and wildlife videos. 😊
Thanks for the kind words Mike. All the best 😊
Was there jut before new year. Loads of snow and will remember standing outside with a full moon illuminating the entire landscape. Good to see the place in summer. A cracking bothy.
A good man
Aye, a top bothy, remind,s me of GDL. Dislike the enclosed fire place, nothing like an open fire, but understand the safety concern,s.
Yeh I’m the same, open fire is better but can’t complain eh. When the bothy is that nice 😊
Anyone else think the 3 cludgies were a bit strange? There must be a reason....... apart from the obvious 😎
There is a bothy in Wales which charges 35-45 pounds per night. Do the scottish ones charge?
Really? I thought they were all free to use? Who takes the money?
MBA bothies are free throughout the UK, ones that cost to stay in are private.
@@tonypaddler thanks 🙏
@@gezzy8095 idk maybe the land owner, I looked at it online today, will try and find it for you 💛
It is in Beddgelert, Gwynedd and the national trust advertise it
I broke down gone midnight ob the A9 heading to Inverness and let me tell you I absolutely shit my self waited for friend to come to me with petrol it was horrible experience thought I would die
I'm curious about where Gregor is from. I can't quite place his accent. Do any of you guys know please?
Thoroughly enjoying Gregor's videos. 😊
