My toughest munro bagging adventure yet.. The Fisherfield Five Sept 2024
Join me in the toughest round of munro's i've done so far, the Fisherfield Five! This was an epic munro bagging adventure into the heart of the fisherfield forest bagging 5 of the most remote munro's in Scotland. These mountains are rugged and unforgiving but afford some of the most beautiful scenery in the Scottish highlands.
I know this is a longer video than normal but believe me i cut another video length again of this adventure just to try and make it less of an epic video for you all. I hope you enjoy it as much as i did although i do complain about how tired i am quite often, but thats the nature of these hard won Munro's, they are tough but have left me with wonderful memories of t...

Ben Nevis via the CMD Arete 31st August 2024

In this video I hike Ben Nevis via the CMD Arete with my wife Lucy. We have hiked the other national peaks Snowdon and Scafell Pike and was treated to some glorious weather in the Scottish Highlands to complete the national 3 peaks. It's days like this that i make bagging Scottish Munros the epic adventure they should be.

Bagging two more munros near the Bridge of Orchy, these two fine scottish mountains were a great pair to hike together even with the dreaded clag! We still managed to get some great mountain views of the surrounding Scottish Highlands.

East Fannich Munros 11th May 2024

My Munro bagging trip around the 4 east Fannich munros. I got incredible weather for the trip which mean the views of the four munros were excellent all day and which afforded great views of the mountains in the north west highlands.

My claggy hike up An Socach (Munro 114). I attempted to chase the weather with this one but the forecast was wildly wrong! Still an enjoyable hike and an easy munro for beginners or if you’ve only got a short amount of time.
Ben More & Stob Binnein 16/03/2024
Просмотров 1568 месяцев назад
A day hike up Ben More & Stob Binnein in the Crianlarich range. It was a mixed bag these two munros, started off in stunning winter weather and ended up claggy on the tops. But regardless due to the snow/ice it was atmospheric and made for an enjoyable hike even the step ascent up Ben More. Munros 112 & 113 in the bag and another pair on the list to revisit in the future.

Munros 110 & 111 Ben Starav 1078m & Glas Bheinn Mhor 997m. I had originally thought to hike all 5 of the munros that are often done as a loop starting with Ben Starav but quickly realised the winter conditions and the size of my pack was going to make that impossible. But bagging the two munros was an amazing hiking trip and I thought I’d document it for my first RUclips video. *Apologies for t...

    Hi Danny, Enjoyed your trip into this remote area in terrific weather conditions. I've never come into these hills from the north and always preferred the route from Kinlochewe where we've managed to get around the six Munros (before the demotion) in a single day with a camp at Lochan Fada on a few occasions. Such a great area and worth the effort. Well done.... Cheers

      Hi Charlie, thank you so much for watching my video and enjoying it too. I’ve watched your channel for a couple years now, so really appreciate it. The weather was incredible if not a little too hot to begin with, some of the most beautiful scenery I’ve ever seen in Scotland. When I do them next I think I’ll head in from Kinlochewe, do you head up Beinn Tarsuinn first then head over to A'Mhaighdean? I think a lighter day pack would make the trip more enjoyable. Thanks again and I hope you take a moment to check out my other hikes.

    I did this back in 2005 the week before I went to uni. Hardest thing I've ever done. Didn't help that I was wearing an expedition sized pack since I'd spent a few days walking from Dalwhinnie. You went up CMD the sensible way. I walked up to Half Way lochan and then round to the north face of Ben Nevis and then went straight up the side of the CMD and, oh my god, it was sooooo steep. I was so burst when I got to the top it took me about 7 hours to go down the tourist track. I virtually crawled back to Fort William and had the worst sunburn of all time. 🤣

    • @summitaboutdanny
      @summitaboutdanny 9 дней назад

      @@Philliben1991 I couldn’t imagine going up the steep side of the CMD, although it’s a longer slog up the way we went it was a lot less steep and more of a gradual ascent. Day packs for sure, I couldn’t imagine doing this with a full expedition sized pack, I’ve done those hikes and they are nowhere near as enjoyable with a huge pack on!
