You know Abbie, I watch alot of these hiking videos but I really think yours are the best. They not only are a guide of where to go walking, but also an insight into the spirit of the landscape, its history, wildlife and people. You passion, enthusiasm and occasional vulnerability make this such a great watch. Inspired to go walking in Ireland now. Great work.
If this was your first visit to Ireland you have had only a glimpse...so much more hiking to be done along the Wild Atlantic Way from Cork through Kerry, Clare, Galway, Mayo, Sligo, and Donegal..........all beauty of Counties with their oiwn special areas of interest.......love your videos, keep them coming.
"Oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person; having neither to weigh thoughts, nor measure words, but to pour them all out, just as they are, chaff and grain together, knowing that a faithful hand with take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then, with a breath of kindness, blow the rest away." Poem by Dinah Craik
I enjoy your choice of hikes... and your narratives. I'm a 62 year old pastor and business owner... and a survivor of cancer and depression. I'm section hiking the Florida Trail and the Appalachian Trail. You have inspired me to add some European hikes to my bucket list.
Hey Abbie!, well this was arguably one of your best, thoroughly enjoyed every moment visually and was completely engaged by your ever more professional commentary, outstanding! One thing I do know is that if I were a stray animal I would want to be found by a human like Abbie Barnes, the compassion and instant commitment to the dog's well being was very moving and heart warming. And then to top it all you treat us to a delightful piece on the penny whistle!.......are there no limits to your talents and capabilities ?! You thoroughly deserve all the praise you receive.
As someone who grew up in Cork City and who is the administrator for the FB group Beautiful Cork Images (photography group portraying the beauty of County Cork), I want to thank you first and foremost. What a magnificent vlog portraying a peninsula (mostly in Cork) in such a beautiful way. Also, well done to you always appearing in good spirits whatever the conditions and weather and your vlog, though long was extremely absorbing throughout. You maintain interest with your enthusiasm and whatever is going on in your head is not reflected in the buoyant, vibrant delivery and eagerness for new places and challenges. Well done. I am a fan. Keep the faith and self belief as you have no reason to doubt.
Abbie you should have your own tv presenting programme,you make your travels so interesting and a fantastic voice for tv and great attitude to life,you are so inspiring so well done 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻thank you so much
Love Glengarriff and the Beara Peninsula, but few are as intrepid and as fearless of you Abbie. Those bogs are a real challenge, and if paths are marked out to encourage walkers they should be made accessible. Otherwise, it's no fun to get stuck in a bog. I think the Dingle Peninsula is dry by comparison. The mountains are higher with more drainage. But, there are bogs too. Love your tin whistle playing.
Abbie,superb adventure,indeed!Relished it from start to finish.Your kindness towards that lovely dog melts hearts!You are a truly amazing person.The final moments of the video and your touching speech made me feel emotional and tearful in a positive way.God bless you
This was gorgeous Abbie, I can't believe 2 hours went by so fast watching this. It's made me want to visit Ireland even more. Thank you for taking us along with you :)
I've lived in West Cork 20 years now and find the place very gloomy, but your passion and enthusiasm cheered me up and hopefully help me survive another winter (smart idea to come hiking in 'summer'!). Brilliant filming/editing as well. Bless you & thanks!
You are a truly beautiful soul, Abbie. Thank you for sharing your playfulness, your compassion, your ups and your downs with us. And, of course, for sharing Ireland with us as well! :-)
What an amazing video of an amazing hike! My best friend and I walked the Beara Way last June and enjoyed 8 days of the gentle tour. Breathtaking sceneries, absolutely wonderful people and loads of stories to tell when we got back home. Abbie, you captured everything beautifully on this video, even the bogs. We remember, oh how we remember! ;-) And kudo's to you for looking after that dog. Bless you!
I used to hike many years ago now I'm retiring your great vlogs have given me the urge to get my kit down from the loft buy some new boots and get out there again . Cheers mate happy trails
loved the tin whistle solo...you have mastered that tune. thank you. thank you too for taking me to parts of beautiful Ireland that i may never get to see. Bless your ramblings Abbie.
Brilliant! So many memories. Collie dog, Bogs. Fantastic vistas. Wonderful mountains. Beautiful bays and lochs. What a walk. One I've never heard of but am so glad you took me along. A million thanks for the great film and the tin whistle - what more can be said!
Hi, Abbie! Still really enjoying your adventures and will send you a comment from time to time so you know your fans are actually out here! Lol! Thanks for including us in your travels! 😎
Abbie, you are an inspiration, your love for the countryside shines through you, I travelled the Ring of Beara 2 years ago but due to health drove most of the ay and just enjoyed many short walks, you are right it is one of the most beautiful places on the planet and the people are wonderful as well.
This brings back good memories to our 1998 Beara Way trip. Dursey Island is still mystical and splendid. I was forgotten how muddy some parts of the trail were. We stayed all in all three nights in Allihies where we fully enjoyed Irish music.
Brilliant video abbie i watched every minute of it , i do hope you back some day to Ireland you are allways welcome , and thank you for talking about mental health its so important, respect and love to you from Ireland ❤👍😊❤
What a fabulous video! and your kindess toward the sheep dog made me warm to you as a person even more.....I'm so pleased that you went the extra mile to ensure it's welfare, a woman after my own heart. The pretty and colourful houses, the views the music (tin whistle) this film has it all, I'm so glad I subscribed to your channel recently, wish I'd done so much earlier......
Well done. I couldn't do what you've done. That was a comprehensive hike, stunning and varied scenery, over a long distance. And the tin whistle playing wasn't at all bad. And the colours of the houses in the villages were absolutely beautiful. Great considered commentary. You smashed it.
I thought to watch a little of this and ended up watching the lot. Abbies voice is pleasant , rhythmic and a warm cordial on a cold wet trail. Will be watching everything she is involved in.
Thank you so much for this beautiful treat. The Beara Way is definitely going on my Bucket list. Thank you for following up on on the beautiful and kind dog. You are awesome!, and so are your videos,,,Thank you
Thankyou for sharing your journey Abbie. I share your sentiments about such a walk being a metaphor for life. I feel this way so often after a difficult walk. We drove around the Ring of Beara in 1996, so in comparison to your own journey, it was just a glimpse - but we loved the place.
1:14:41 The rocks look like a dead body below the water. Great video, Abbie. I have only just found your channel and already binged 3 videos. Amazing stuff! You're an inspiration.
This was wonderful Abbie! Your tin whistle skills are excellent! OMG though the poor collie dog that was tied to the fence was hard to watch. That poor bloody dog! Thank you for being such a fabulous human and for the excellent content and magical hiking.
You made a great video there. The Ring of Beara is fantastic. However, my wife and I opened it up by car in 2 weeks. It was incredibly beautiful. I'm getting longing.
What an awesome adventure and told in an unpretentious way. Not sure what I enjoyed more, the staggering beauty of that area or your perpetual smiling face even when your boots must have been going squelch squelch squelch. Well done you.
Thank you so much. It has been very inspiring to me. I will bring 11 Danish hikers with me to Beara next year hiking most of the trail you made here👣👣. I hiked half the Kerry way 10 years ago. I love Ireland and have been there several times both walking, visiting beautiful places and Lovely friends there. Best regards Inger Arensbach, Denmark
This is great. I’ve spent lots of time around Glengariff and have stayed at the Coomarkane visitor centre a few times, once for 10 days as I explored the surrounding hills in depth. One of my favourite places and truly wild and wooly in stormy weather. The forest you walked through at the beginning is some of the only ancient forest left in Ireland dating back to the last ice age. Great that you walked this route.
Thank you so much for taking time out to make sure the dog was ok and hugging him through the rain. Just another reason to add to the many others for why you're my favourite youtuber. Thank you so much for sharing your challenges with us, physical and mental.
Abbie, you brought tears to my eyes, when you stopped for the dog and then followed up on the poor little thing. Good on you! I 💚 Ireland, I've been twice, and now I want to go back to walk some of the trails. I've missed seeing the Ring of Beara in real life, but watching your film made me feel like I haven't! I've only just discovered your films, but have been enjoying your adventures immensely. Keep on keeping on...best wishes from Canada 🇨🇦
Greetings from New Zealand, many thanks for just being you I guess. Your awareness of environmental issues, hiking/wilderness etiquette, mental health maintenance, delight in the outdoors landscape and ecology - these are things my wife and I hold in high regard and it's a pleasure meet you even if only on UA-cam. We've greatly enjoyed your many videos and appreciate the effort that goes into them.
I have just discovered your videos. Keep up the good work. Nice to see a youtuber promoting the content rather than themselves with over flamboyance. Inspiration
Only watched the first 15 minutes or so, and it is already obvious that long distance paths in Eire seem so much better cared for, marked out, looked after than England. Looking forward to watching the rest of the walk
" sometimes, you don't have to do something crazy or radical to change how you feel about your life, you just have to walk " .. brilliant and true it takes a brave heart and a courageous soul to commit to the unknown, all you have to do is to decide that you want it more than you are afraid of it :)
You are so beautiful!! Thank you Abbie for taking us along for another amazing adventure. Smashed that Like button when I saw the move that the fairies do.
Wow this video was super inspirational! Originally had zero intention of watching a 1hr 48min video but there I was glued to the screen throughout. I'm from Cork but lived in London the last 12 years so I miss this kind of landscape(and bog!) very much! Had intended to do the ring of Beara last summer but got a bee sting in the eye so spent the last few days of my trip in a hotel with ice on my eye... Thank you Abbie for looking after the doggie and showing us such an amazing part of the world. I have liked and subscribed !
Other Vloggers might have clipped this into sections to have more ads and such...but not you! Watching this was like being with a friend for a comfortable afternoon. I wished I could have seen more about your accommodations and how you packed for food. One day you mentioned that you hadn't eaten since breakfast! Loved the tin flute concert: such talent. I have one, and it inspires me. Good job you!
Rucksac packed... On way in September, told hillwalk only booked cos of you and they should sponser you for another Irish adventure. Great vid chuckie, probs your best yet!
This is a wonderful video. I watched it in it's entirety last night and could feel the calm and serenity. Your narration and positivity is wonderful. I am from Cork but live across the big pond. Have done so for many years now. People absolutely need to get out there more and enjoy these beautiful places. And I hope parents encourage their kids to be more active, leave the phone for a few hours.
What a wonderful journey. I ride my bike in this area , but you saw much more than me as I wiz by ! It looks like I have to walk it now! Thanks Abbie !
Thanks Abbie for showing off my country like that. Epic. I hope someone in the tourist board of Ireland sees this film. Well done Abbie. Take care. God bless.
Wow! I'm from the other corner, the SE 💚 I'm so happy you had a great time. What a fab trip 🌼 you were spot on to check on the collie, hope he was curled up in a cosy kitchen somewhere nearby. I travelled the Beara peninsula with my son and we giggled so much getting on the cable car at Dinish ... we hid behind a rock on the other side, scoffed our snacks and headed back ... but he was only small. Such a beautiful place 🌼💚🌼 hope you get to come back sometime. Oops edit to say you're deadly at the tin whistle🌼🎶🌼
Not long found your channel and I must say your a real inspiration beautiful upbeat and knowledgable woman keep up the fantastic work thank you and well done
Wow, just wow. 1h48m of pure awesomeness. Please tell me the irish board of tourism paid you to do this. I'm seriously contemplating travelling there and am checking flights from Copenhagen to Ireland. That route is absolutely gorgeous The piranah sign killed me I also got alot of Monty Python vibes: Bog bog bog bog bog bog bog Poor doggo! But damn what a respons you got. awesome people. Dacapo!! You really brought out that irish vibe - I could totally have a pint or two to the tune of your flute. Cheers and thanks for the ride!
This has got to be one of my absolute favourite trail videos of yours, Abbie. I know you've said you sometimes struggle with your mental health, so seeing the sheer joy in your face as you walked this one, I just couldn't help but smile too. The tin whistle playing was also really impressive, what a lovely little tune 😊
Abbie as usual an amazing walk done by a brilliant commentator. Very enjoyable to watch. What a lot of people don’t realise is that Ireland and Northern Ireland have some most beautiful places to visit. The Ulster way and the Mourne mountains these are my favourites. Maybe something for you to think about in the future. Stay wild you are a treasure.
Love your videos because you show the reality of up times and low times as well. Not just the instagram ideals. The tid bits of education you provide are great and I love learning some of the history. You are encouraging me to get out and about in my own area and plan for some future trips farther out. Your tin whistle playing was FABULOUS!! Love and good wishes!
Thanks for this. I'm heading out to explore The Beara Way in May. Doing the 6-day/5-night moderate hike offered by Hill Walk Tours (covered in the first hour of this video) - Mentally and physically preparing for muddy, boggy conditions, and some hill climbs, but can't wait to explore the views, fresh air, wildlife, and take a long needed break from the 9-5.
Great job on the jig, Abbie. The tune goes by two different names: Donnybrook Fair and Joy of My Life. I love your videos! Thank you for being so uplifting and sharing so many beautiful insights. Maybe see you on the trail some day!
Abbie you truly are a beautiful person xxxxx enjoyed your video so much . You keep going Hun xxxxx much love from your friends in Wales Ritchie and Raven x
Hi. I seem to be working my way through your walks lately. I've not seen much of Ireland by other hikers I watch and this was a real treat to see. Such awesome scenery and wildlife. You had me bopping with the pipe aswel. Mint. Mant thanks.
Well well young lady , a hidden penny whistle talent you have there , perhaps next it will be singing a folk song from atop a mountain =-P . lovely looking scenery thanks for all the travelling that i can't do =-)
Excellent Abbie. I like the fact that you took the time out to ensure the Collie dog was ok. 👍
You know Abbie, I watch alot of these hiking videos but I really think yours are the best.
They not only are a guide of where to go walking, but also an insight into the spirit of the landscape, its history, wildlife and people.
You passion, enthusiasm and occasional vulnerability make this such a great watch.

Calm and beautiful landscape with nice human being, it's like my soul have been healed.

take the words out from my heart... Thank you Simon Nowiz
Felt the same way about the doggie. So glad you followed up ❤
You have a very kind heart Abbie, bless your soul...

This is AWESOME! When you stopped to play your flute it was the best!! Stay true to yourself and stay wild abbey♥️💯🙌
Flute!!!.... Flute!!!... Ti's a penny whistle sir, not even in the same class of musicianship, anyone can play flute. Regards.
Steve Parkinson lol i wasnt sure what it was called🤣🙌 tyvm for the name of it🙂
Anyone able to advise on what key of tinwhistle a beginner should go with? Tia.
Abbie you should have your own tv presenting programme,you make your travels so interesting and a fantastic voice for tv and great attitude to life,you are so inspiring so well done 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻thank you so much

You picked a good trail to walk. The Caha Mountains are some of the most stunning and other worldly ones we have. 😊
Got to say you lifted my spirit with that jig and made me feel right there with you. Well done! Thank you for another brilliant movie.
I used to hike many years ago now I'm retiring your great vlogs have given me the urge to get my kit down from the loft buy some new boots and get out there again .

Hi, Abbie! Still really enjoying your adventures and will send you a comment from time to time so you know your fans are actually out here! Lol! Thanks for including us in your travels! 😎
Talking to yourself is the only intelligent conversation you can have. Love your videos, currently binging.

Fantastic scenery abbie. You have a fantastic amount of energy,, you have me worn out just watching you💖👍stay safe and enjoy

Storming video to watch during the lockdown. I want to do it!
I really enjoyed this. I am trying to convince my wife to do this hike with me.
Thank you for the inspiration.
Thanks for your positivity Abbie
Hi Abbie, really glad you enjoyed yourself. I enjoyed your piece.
Be sure to come back and see us again.
Wonderful video. Beautiful views, so informative and eloquently narrated. Love your spirit, resilience, and optimism, Abbie!
Loved this! Definitely adding to my bucket list! Love that you helped the dog.
And now I need to go find my tin whistle. 🙂
Thank you so much. It has been very inspiring to me. I will bring 11 Danish hikers with me to Beara next year hiking most of the trail you made here👣👣. I hiked half the Kerry way 10 years ago.

This is great. I’ve spent lots of time around Glengariff and have stayed at the Coomarkane visitor centre a few times, once for 10 days as I explored the surrounding hills in depth. One of my favourite places and truly wild and wooly in stormy weather. The forest you walked through at the beginning is some of the only ancient forest left in Ireland dating back to the last ice age. Great that you walked this route.
Thanks for sharing your walks and scrambles and the boggy pits of Ireland. No wonder Ireland is related to the colour of green, its awesome.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you so much for taking time out to make sure the dog was ok and hugging him through the rain. Just another reason to add to the many others for why you're my favourite youtuber. Thank you so much for sharing your challenges with us, physical and mental.

Greetings from New Zealand, many thanks for just being you I guess. Your awareness of environmental issues, hiking/wilderness etiquette, mental health maintenance, delight in the outdoors landscape and ecology - these are things my wife and I hold in high regard and it's a pleasure meet you even if only on UA-cam. We've greatly enjoyed your many videos and appreciate the effort that goes into them.

Ive just found your channel! I love it ❤ walking is great for mental health 🙂
Fantastic video. You are the sweetest girl. The flute was lovely. Well done.
Only watched the first 15 minutes or so, and it is already obvious that long distance paths in Eire seem so much better cared for, marked out, looked after than England. Looking forward to watching the rest of the walk
Thank you so much for producing and sharing these videos.
Dear Abbie, I thoroughly enjoyed this excellent video! Maybe my favorite of yours. Thank you & Happy Trails :-)
" sometimes, you don't have to do something crazy or radical to change how you feel about your life, you just have to walk " .. brilliant and true

You are an inspirational person. Keep Walking!
Wow, just wow. 1h48m of pure awesomeness.
Please tell me the irish board of tourism paid you to do this.
I'm seriously contemplating travelling there and am checking flights from Copenhagen to Ireland.
That route is absolutely gorgeous
The piranah sign killed me
I also got alot of Monty Python vibes: Bog bog bog bog bog bog bog
Poor doggo! But damn what a respons you got. awesome people.
Dacapo!! You really brought out that irish vibe - I could totally have a pint or two to the tune of your flute. Cheers and thanks for the ride!

Thanks for this. I'm heading out to explore The Beara Way in May. Doing the 6-day/5-night moderate hike offered by Hill Walk Tours (covered in the first hour of this video) - Mentally and physically preparing for muddy, boggy conditions, and some hill climbs, but can't wait to explore the views, fresh air, wildlife, and take a long needed break from the 9-5.
Great job on the jig, Abbie. The tune goes by two different names: Donnybrook Fair and Joy of My Life. I love your videos! Thank you for being so uplifting and sharing so many beautiful insights. Maybe see you on the trail some day!

You have a lovely lyrical turn of phrase, Abbie. Thanks for the wonderful video (well, more a movie really)!!
What a wonderful walk. Have done the cheats version and gone round the peninsula in a car. Realise now I'll have to go again on foot. Thank you Abbie.
