- Impression of my trip to La Gomera (Canary Islands) in the first week of March 2020. I spent 6 days in total, walking 132km, mostly along the GR131 and GR132 trails. It’s a wonderful island, perfect for walking, taking you from barren rocky canyons to lush laurel cloud forests, and from secluded pebble beaches to quaint colorful villages. Enjoy the trip.
I made a complete hiking guide video for this trip: • Hiking Guide - La Gome...

Awesome journey! I love la Gomera. Best place to find inner peace through hiking.
A very well made video. You really bring the tranquillity of the place to us.
I never get more energy from the Nature than of La Gomera. Powerful Island 💗
Dort geboren!!
Fabulous filming. Also, love the music as it gives the impression of peace and tranquility which is what I like about walking alone.
very nice, nice movie
I'm about to travel there on February awesome video 👌
Cool, have fun!
My home off and on for 32 years (I live here now 6 months every year). I recocnize every single step! beautifully done!
I always throughly enjoy your films!
0:13 that's cool how you can see the tip of Mount teide
Danke für das wunderschöne Video! Ich war oft auf La Gomera und das Video war für mich wie ein kurzer Urlaub!
Great film, I like your music choice.
All the best!
Thanks Rocky!
Very interesting to see how much beauty can be found in a landscape that mostly gives a first impression of drought and barrenness. Thank you, Lennart!
I live in La Gomera, and still this movie moved me. Great camera work and audio. Bedankt!
Hello, how difficult is it to find budget long term appartments to rent for winter?
@@wilhelmsvideon9206 Hi, it is not easy to find (cheap) apartments lately. If you don't want to pay the "tourist" prices you need to rent for 6 months minimum. And you can't be sure to find something when you arrive here. Cheap hostels/pensions cost about €25 - €35 per night, shared bathrooms.
Bonito y evocador recorrido , enhorabuena
Great video sir, keep up the awesome work!! Word's can't explain how your work is VERY Nice work!! Thanks for the beautiful hike!!!
this deserves way more views. thank you for this beauty of a video. i'm from spain myself and have never been there, this really pushed me towards willing to go there some day definitely ty ty ty :)
Thanks for the kind words! It was quite the trip for sure.
Beautiful production; some lovely shots and so atmospheric! Great blend of soundtrack and natural sounds from the trail! Rock on!!
Wonderful video. I really enjoy watching. New subscriber from iran. Keep going on...👌🙏
Wow.... This is a truly amazing video. So much thought gone into it, the best I've seen, with no annoying music most people put on. Please make more.... Reminds me of solo walking all around El chorro. BEAUTIFUL WELL DONE
Wir fanden das ein schönes Video!👍🙂
thanks, great shots/filming, very well put together, well done!
Great, thanks for inspiration🙋🏼♂️
A fantastic hike and a wonderful film Thank you
La Gomera is truly beautiful and a hikers paradise. Great video.
Totally enjoyed this. Thank you for sharing.
Very nice. Happy to say that I recognized some of the trails from our trip in 2018.
Heerlijke video! Prachtig gemaakt en gemonteerd! Ik hou ook van de beheerste, subtiele humor die er ook af en toe inzit.
MAGNIFIQUE ! La Goméra dans toute sa splendeur ... Certainement la plus belle vidéo de la Goméra que je connaisse .
What a wonderful video, thank you so much!
Wunderschön und berührend 🙏
It's always great. Your video is excellent quality. We liked and enjoyed to the end. Thanks
Schitterende video - niet alleen de omgeving, maar vooral hoe jij jezelf in beeld hebt gebracht. Klasse!
beautiful filming, great compositions!
this video is a gem! i wish it had more views! thank you so much for sharing this!
This movie inspired us to do this round trip at La Gomera (only we stayed in hotels). Now we're back and I'm rewatching your video. I recognize so many of the places and you capture it exactly as it is! Thank you for the inspiration and motivation!
That's awesome!
I really like your video's; the video editing is awesome; the music is stunning and i like the melancholic touch. I wish i would have the courage to do this solo, the terrain seems quite challenging. I hope to see more stuff in the future.
Challenging terrain...how? It's ain't climbing trackless Mt. Everest where you can freeze to death or be found breathless cause of lack of oxygen
Super video, super trek
Great videography! Seems like quite an inner journey trip wi the lots of cool landscape diversity. Will be following!
Meraviglioso..bravo .conosco bene la gomera..un video emozionante.. complimenti
Breathtaking views and amazing video in general! Nice to see the path I hiked too :)
Bellissimo video, strepitosa scelta della colonna sonora. Complimenti davvero BELLO
Grazie
Wow, great doc you made there. Very nice shots and angles. I walked there 10 years ago (only 60km) and recognize many spots,
There is one place, (I can't remember the location), it was so strange, the environment changed from hot dessert with cacti, into damp misty forrest in about zero meters. It was so so strange. You were walking into a different world instantly.
It was a wonderful trip. and I can see you had a wonderful trip as well. Thanks for sharing.
Barranco de Guada?
I really enjoyed watching your video. It is awesome.
Thank you for this movie.
Beautiful video, you really let the landscape do the talking. Definitely whets my appetite for a trip to La Gomera.
Great video, i love the way you put it together
So tolle Wege gewandert. Ganz Klasse.
mooie beelden man! klasse
Супер классное видео, спасибо. 👍👍⛰⛰🌴🌵😼🐕🐦🌿☘🐜⛺🚶♂️
Bravo c est du bon boulot bien fait e sourtout très utile merci 😊
Thank you!!
Virtual hiking in Corona-times, ik was echt een tijdje mee op reis, fijn!
Wow that's nice dude
Absolutely love your video, thanks a lot!!
What do you generally recommend for equipment for such a trip? Seems like you carry very little things. All best
damn these videos are really good
Awesome video! Thanks for making it. Didn't hear this mentioned in your other video, what month did you go? Weather looks nice. Cheers!
It's up there in the first line of the description. ;) "first week of March 2020"
Awesome trip !!! Please show us some other canary islands as well ! What is the mobile phone coverage like on this island ?
Thanks. Honestly I don't really know, I had my phone in airplane mode most of the time…
Great video thanks. Friday I'll go hiking on La Gomera as well. A question, which part of the island you would consider more beautiful, the north or south?
The south is a little more arid, but the main difference is between the higher elevations in the center and the coastlines. You should see both! Did you see my hiking guide video as well?
Beautiful. I was under the impression that wild camping is not allowed on the island? Can you confirm?
Thanks for this video! It was good quality! maybe you could do a voice over , to explain something, where you were ,what you felt, hungry or happy or the plan. You have the skills to become a youtube star " Foresty Forest" simple 180000 subscribers. you can do it ,best of luck!!
👍
Congrats for such a good video. What is the black panel that you carry con the back of your backpack? Is it a solar panel? i would like to know about it.
Hi, it’s a solar panel indeed, from Decathlon. Haven’t really used it since then, because they have a very low output. Didn’t really work for me.
Really immersive video. Did you struggle with the water? Thanks
I did! As I explained in my hiking guide video: ruclips.net/video/xr7E6jyFjts/видео.html
I'm so envious. I love hiking but have an absolute fear or paranoia about solo camping. I really dont know how to overcome it. Thinking someone will attack me. I'm missing out on such adventures. 😢 Thank you for a wonderful video 🙏
Wow, that's a pretty wild scenario. That pretty much never happened, ever, but that's the thing with fears of course - they're irrational. It still happens that my heart gets racing when I hear strange sounds at night, but every single time, all is well, and I get back to sleep. Start small, with friends, or in a garden, and build up from there!
@@LennartSchoors Hey, thanks for the reply and thoughts. Yes, definitely irrational. I don't think there's an easy option other than to face my fears. The video was great. Well filmed and very informative, plus your additional gear etc video. I'll check out your other stuff too. I'll let you know if I conquer my fear! All the best. Steve
Tak letos tam vyrážím, snad se mě podaří natočit také takové video
I imagine stoicism must be part of your philosophy. As well as a desire for the extraordinary
Great video! Did you have to pitch on hard surfaces very often? Thinking about whether I need an air pad
It's a volcanic island, so while it's not exactly bare rock, there often isn't that much soft soil.
@@LennartSchoors alright thanks
Awesome video. Can you tell me which villages you are near from 5:30 to 6:30?
Sure, that's the stretch from Rosas de las Piedras to Vallehermoso.
@@LennartSchoors Brilliant, thank you mate
Hi excellent hike! I try to do the same after 2 days 11.02 Please Tell me the name or location of beatyfull beach at 12.35 in video! Thank you!
Bonjour juste pour savoir si vous avez trouver cette île intéressante

Short answer: no. Longer answer: check my hiking guide video ;) ruclips.net/video/xr7E6jyFjts/видео.html
Mooi!! Top video! Ik tracht ook hiking video's te maken, altijd vrij om op mijn kanaal een kijke te nemen ;-)
PS : welke camera gebruik je tijdens je wandelingen ?
Hi, how many days for trekking?
It is right there in the very first line of the description. ;)
4:42 how big is that grasshopper it looks like it's the size of a dog

Hey, did you catch my separate hiking guide video? The full route is described there, with GPX files in the description! ruclips.net/video/xr7E6jyFjts/видео.html
Hi. Vander. Brasil.
A food video.
Could you plz share where the place is at 11:47?
I can't recall exactly where this was, but it's somewhere on the GR132 northwest of San Sebastian.
