Rum Cuillin traverse - scrambling with dogs over five major summits of Scottish Island of Rum

- Rum is one of the Small Isles of the Inner Hebrides, off the west coast of Scotland.
The island is designated as a National Nature Reserve.
Rum Cuillin are steep rocky mountains rising high up straight from the sea. The route over five major summits is a physically demanding scramble with almost 2000 meters of ascent.
To do this with my dogs was a very special but hard challenge I have never tried before. There is much more responsibility than if you go on your own and mainly route finding becomes crucial aspect with dogs..
Unforgettable scrambling adventure with Sofie and Tilly filmed on beautiful Island of Rum in Scotland in July 2023.

Superb 👏 👏 👏
5 tops, 5 dry humps, 2 lagers, 1 whisky and 2 special friends....brilliant video
Thank you. Had 2 big Tennent's and 1 small Staropramen in there I think🙂 Cheers🍺
Don't normally comment - but what a fantastic film. If anyone ever in doubt than dogs are our best friends. They were just brilliant and you cared so much for them
Thanks for that. Dogs have very short life compare to us humans. And it's up to us how they live it. All of these trips with them are pretty special to me and will remember them forever.
Brilliant video, and well done for managing that challenging traverse with your wonderful dogs 👏👏👏
Thanks Dom. Your video inspired me to do it.
And thank you Jonas for returning the favour and inspiring me back 👍
What a great video Jonas. I have the Rum Cuillin on my list. It was good to see what’s involved. You had great weather. Good to see that it’s manageable for dogs. Thanks and well done. 👏👏👏
Thank you. It was windy a little but clear and dry. Yes manageable with dogs but you need to find the right route for them. Cheers.
Brilliant Jona, what an adventure, loved every minute of it. Thank you so much for sharing your's, Sophie and Tilley's adventure with us.
All the best
Dave
Thank you for watching and commenting. Glad you enjoyed.
Great filming Jonas, loved it, now I can't wait to get over there with my pooch later this year :)
Thank you. Have fun! It's a beautiful island.
Glad you and the dogs made it over! 😊
Thanks. Me too:-]
Really amazing video and guidance.
Thank you very much
Brilliant solo trip! Well done Jonas 😊😊. Rum is still on my list, especially this ridge! 😍😍
Thank you and good luck with it!
Enjoyed this mate, what an adventure. Feared for the dogs on some of the scrambles but you looked after them.
I did the traverse back in 2014 and loved every bit of it. Came down the wrong line on Trollival and had to scramble down greasy wet terraces. Was bricking it.
Thanks Robin. for me.. it was one of those days I was in some kind of happy trance.. if you see what I mean. If I didn't have the pictures I would say I changed into a dog for that day and we did as a pack of three:-] Can't say I loved every bit of it though.. but the feeling after in the bothy was... amazing.
@@jonashubalekwhiskyandthewild I get that mate. Great pack too 🐶
That was a big day, glad you got good weather to see those stunning views. Sofie and Tilly are honoury mountain goats after that.
Thank you. I was waiting for that weather in there for some time. Yeah.. they were great. I am proud of them.
Thank you for sharing! Great adventure!
Thanks very much
What a great tough adventure. Your dogs did brilliantly but I can appreciate they were ready for a good sleep. Awesome.
Thank you. Yes all three of us were ready for a good sleep:-]
Aaahhhhhh 🥃 Brilliant Jonas. What an adventure. 😎Always fancied the Rum Cuillin. Need to get over there. Sofie & Tilly looked as tho they had a ball. 😊 Bothy looked great too.
Thanks Kevin. It's a beautiful part of the world...if the weather works:-]
brilliant! thanks for showing us the rum cuillins, and well done sophie and tilly. you earned that infinity pool at the bothy, tough tough day.
Thanks for watching! Pool was very refreshing indeed:-]
Thoroughly enjoyed this Jonas, what an adventure! I would love to try the ridge but at 11 years old I think it would be too much for my Meg and I would leave her at home. ATB, Ian
Thank you Ian. Yes 11 years of age for dog sounds like too much for Rum Cuillin traverse but you must know best what she can do. You can actually escape down to Dibidil bay for the bothy after you hike/scramble ''only'' first two hills [Hallival and Askival] if that helps or alternatively you could do just low level walk to the bothy from Kinloch. That is the path I used for going back from bothy. I hate leaving dogs at home but understand it will get hard later when they get old. ATB Jonas.
Wow really inspirational. Always feel uplifted after watching one of yours.
Thank you for letting me know. Good to hear something like that🙂 Cheers
Superb mate, just love the your dogs.
Love them too:-] Thanks
Fantastic, takes me back to 2010 when my pal and I stayed there for 3 days and climbed every top, some of them twice! Because they’re not Munro’s they don’t see the same amount of foot traffic and are all the better for it and let’s be honest, they can hold their own against all but the best Munro’s.
Thanks. I agree, Rum Cuillin are steep and more difficult to ascend than many munros where the terrain is less steep and with a path up on summits. Cheers.
Great stuff!
Thanks
Absolutely fantastic Jonas! Just watched this with my dinner and thoroughly enjoyed it!! My wee paddy was watching with envy!! Stunning mate! Paul
Thank you. I am sure your Paddy can also enjoy plenty outdoor fun with you so no reason for envy:-] Cheers to you both!
What an absolutely amazing video Jonas 😍👏🏻..It looks so amazing there..Looked a hard workout even for a super fit guy like yourself 😁💪🏻..The dogs were brilliant 😁..The Bothy looked great and those mountains OMG 😍😍😍..Really enjoyed that mate 😁👍
Cheers
Robert
Thank you very much. I was planning this one for a long time waiting for the right weather. Glad it worked so well. Cheers.
@@jonashubalekwhiskyandthewild 😁👍
Fabulous adventure Jonas, brought back great memories for me. But Jeez, my heart was in my mouth watching Tilley at times 🫣❤️ Very envious, chapeau! 👏
Thank you Sue, Tilly wants to be a good girl soo much and that sometimes may cause the problem🙂 She is Sofie's daughter but they are both different characters. Thinking to breed Tilly, it will be just once in her lifetime like we did with Sofie so let me know if you want to book one pup. But remember it's a lifechanging decision! Cheers J.
@@jonashubalekwhiskyandthewild ahhh! Tilly is a star & she melts my heart! Alas, I can’t commit to a pet 🙁 Will you keep one when she gives birth? A future third canine RUclips star? ❤️
@@FIVE-FOOTLyth Wise attitude. Definitely not! We will sell all of them. But that was the plan last time and it didn't work:-] This time I will ask a written confirmation to each family member that we won't keep one😁 I love them but three would be too much for us.
Fantastic video big man, looks like you got lucky with the weather. Respect, that looked a tough hike, well done all.
Thank you. I was waiting for that weather and when finally came I canceled everything and just went:-]
Great video 👍
Thank you
Fantastic video Jonas, never been to Rum but always fancied it. Need to get my finger out. Cheers 👍🥃
Thank you. Go for it! Do it in a nice weather and you will not regret. Cheers!
Fantastic views. Great clear skies. Best wishes on the next.
Thank you
what an absolute joy to watch this one, Jonas. My mate and I had planned to do the same journey a couple of years ago but the weather window was rubbish and spent the night at Kinbreak at the end of Loch Arkaig. I haven't been out this year as such apart from a couple of bothy trips, one at Raasay which was devine. Take good care fella
Thank you Willie. Yes I saw your nice pictures from Rassay. Glad you did that. Good Luck for more trips. Atb. Jonas
@@jonashubalekwhiskyandthewild cheers fella
Thank you for all the chuckles I got to have along the way with this one
08:30 😂😂
The dog bits are great .
11:50 😢
You are welcome! I know... totally unacceptable behaviour:-]
@@jonashubalekwhiskyandthewild 24:00 also I think and many more ❤️❤️😀
😁😁🦮🥃@@lifesahobby
Great video mate
Thank you Gus.
❤👍👍 nice one
Thank you
Fantastic video! I've got rum on the list! I need to learn how to plan routes/navigate better before i take on such a task! Have you got any advice on planning hikes better?
Thank you. I am not the expert but.. Just go and do it I would say! Start with something easy and well marked like WHW. Gradually go for more difficult ones. Go in good weather, it helps a lot. Cheers.
