This is really beautiful, both the place and to walk there! Viewed from above it looks so cool (and I just feel like somehow knowing, why the place has gotten its name).
I'm very sorry about your friend (this is always so sad, and one can do nothing about it 😔).
In the old belief all warriors will go to Valhall, and so, in this case, he was there (invisibly) with you.
Well said, and I can add nothing to this other than I too am sorry for your loss Bjorn. Thank you for taking us with you.
I really enjoy walking with you in the forests and the places you go to in the fjords. (edited for bad English...LOL!)...and the after thought of:
Maybe it was ancestors you heard....
Sorry about your friend. It's not easy to losing a friend . They are hard to come bye. Loved the video.
Sorry you lost your friend Bjorn. He must of been a very special person to have a friend like you. Take care.
So sorry for the loss of your friend. Beautiful land you have to hike in. Thank you for sharing 😊
Maybe your friend accompanied you and the Valkyrie were saying "time to go" to him. My condolences. What a lovely way to remember your friend as the trip was beautiful and so peaceful. Thank you.
Bjorn, your connection to the land, your friend, and your way of life is truly awesome to watch. Those to voices you heard let you know you are not alone. Peace with yourself and your life come through this art to connect us to you and your land. Thank you. This touched my heart.
I just lost my dog and best hiking and adventure buddy for the last 14 years… I honored him the same way. Cheers.
I’m sorry for your loss. This is a beautiful location. Thanks for taking us along.
So sorry for your loss, Bjorn. Thank you for sharing your walk among the gods. Those trees and that view are heavenly!
Thank you so much!
Bjorn. Thank you very much for sharing the Norwegian country side with us.
Bjørn goes to Valhall and hears the babbling of the Nornir the light of Odin truly blessed his life
A fitting tribute to your late friend Bjorn. May he be blessed on his journey. Sköl !
Gorgeous nature there! In two weeks I get to hike in the mountains of Colorado, one of my favorite passtimes.
Wonderful adventure and stunning views. Your dear friend will be in natures harmony and unspoken peace, spirit is always alive and well. I love you, Bjorn. Love from my heart for all of your nature adventures and priceless wisdom you share with so many. Profound blessings and happiness I wish for you. Nature is truly our greatest friend of which we should all be taking huge care of.
You're such a strong, noble soul. I'm grateful that you video tape your time outdoors. It is precious to even just see it. I'm sorry for your loss but I'm sure your friend's soul is looking upon you with love and pride. Eternal Blessings.
Sorry about the loss of a friend ..
But they remain eternally in your heart..for as long as you remain on this earth .
Really lovely video bjorn thank you for sharing your beautiful places in the land of your birth....
It was nice to come on the hike to Valhall with the honouring of your friend's passing. So sad but in memory of a fine man passing.
I’m sorry you lost a friend BJORN; thank you for the hike in the forest. The music and the views and your efforts to make it are appreciated.
My sincere condolences, Bjorn. This hike is a wonderful way to honor his memory. Thank you for allowing us to come along.
I love trees! I'm glad you got to spend time with your memories of your friend in nature. He's still around, just different now. Peace to you friend.
Thank you Bjorn, you will be remembered for millennia
Thank you Bjorn👌 I trust that your friend is indeed enjoying the benefits of Valhalla🙏🖤🍻
Bjorn, the hiking viking.
Sorry for the loss of your friend. Thank you for taking us along on your hike. The views are beautiful.
I cannot get out in nature any more, so to see yours is very uplifting. I was very close to nature not too long ago, but that was too hard on my aging vessel as a singular lady out there. Too many gutters, and staining yearly needed to be done, and the river rose to too high of a levels, and it wasn't right for me any more, as hard as tried to make it there, I could not sustain that level of work required, so now I have almost no nature at all, and I really do love her, nature. I learn the Ogham alphabet and trees now. So keep on keeping on Bjorn, your channel is fun, thank you.
I am deeply sorry for the loss of your old friend.
No adequate words describe the beauty of Valhalla.
Thank you.
Its very beautiful and peaceful. I hope your camping brings you, the peace we all need to survive.
A very calm, peaceful and beautiful tribute for your friend. I am sure they are pleased.
What a healthy start for the healing process.
This is one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen, If Not the most beautiful place
Two women travel up to valhal just to relieve themselves at the sacred toilet haha! This video was really awesome Björn and when you had mentioned your friend who passed I got very emotional. I realize how it is when we lose someone on the earth plane and I empathized greatly with that. And it wasn't only that which sparked my tears. It was the indescribable beauty of the wilderness which added to the serenity of feeling and the sublime nature of it all. This video reminds me the the song by Amon Amarth "Valhal Awaits Me" and for those of us pure of heart that truly does await us in a metaphorical sense. Thank you for your videos Björn 🙏🍻🤟⚔️
Condolences to you and your friend's family. Whatever lays beyond, on the other side, may your friend be enjoying the best of it.
All my love to you and our World.
I liked your hike. Your video was well put and beautiful. Thanks for always being real Bjorn. I’m sorry about your friend.💕
Thank you.
Hello Bjorn! Hope you are well! Nature is key to keeping up our spirits.
Very sorry for your loss!
Thank you for taking us with you to Valhall and share this beautiful view!
Memory is important. Thank you for sharing the beautiful scenery and part of your adventure.
Skal Bjorn,,greetings from the ohio woods,,it was wonderful to accompany you to Valhalla very beautiful,thanks for the drone footage,beautiful,I never cease to be enraptured with nature,,I am sorry to hear you lost your friend,,blessings to you,your family and your dogs,, Robert the Norsemen
I was happy for you that you were outdoors honoring your friend's memory. At one point, though, my thought was that I was glad you were so far out in the woods where there would not be any other human, and that you were safe. But then, right when I finished that thought you heard voices. Made me nervous for you. So, I am glad you are okay and that you were able to enjoy your night out. Thanks for videotaping your outdoors excursion. Since I can no longer do anything like that, it was quite refreshing to go along with you on your walk. Beautiful views.
This beats watching the news. Thank s for making me forget this worlds troubles for a little while
I am glad to hear that. I tend to think about life out in nature as the real life and the world out there as the real world.
Sorry for your loss Bjorn 😢❤ he is looking over you, big and wide. 🙏
I always enjoy these little adventures with you. You cracked me up with the whole ; "I think it's chicken curry, Yep; it tastes like chicken curry" moment. As to hearing voices in the middle of the night: You did pick a spot near a bronze age burial mound after all, what did you expect :)
Sorry about your friend Bjorn, I've lost a couple recently myself (jabs and all that)...
I'm already subscribed to all your channels so other than when I'm away I don't miss much.
Thanks again for including us.
Nice way to honor a late friend!❤️❤️❤️😭😭😭
Sorry to hear about your friend, it looks like an amazing hike. Be careful and safe.
Thank you for taking us on this journey, such a lovely video so calming, relaxing and beautiful scenery there
My sincere condolences. What a great way to honor your friend.
I lost my father to cancer. He was only 69. But before he died, I told him about how I was really getting into your videos here on RUclips. Specifically, I told him about your definition of a heathen: “of the land”. He loved that; he had always called his children his heathens. We grew up in high mountains hiking and camping as children.
He loved how we grew up to be adults still honoring the tradition of walking the real earth, breathing in the fresh mountain air, viewing faraway horizons, camping, hiking, just being. My brother and I used to “tear out”. We would escape “civilization” and be wild in the place where we were born to be: the wilderness. We would go camping literally on a whim - no plans, no Portlandia, just instinct. We would listen bands like Soundgarden and Dimmu Borgir and go the only place in our USA state where we could see more than just a few stars at night: high mountains. To this day, we play guitar and bass once a week.
From Portland since 1999, I’d sure like to hear your music as nd meet you…
@@annalisa14 Thank you, I would like to meet you as well, Anna Lisa - it would be an honor.
Bjørn Andreas Bull-Hansen has said in his videos that people have literally made friends from getting acquainted as like-hearted individuals from his comments section. As you may be aware, he’s a husband, father, bushcrafter, powerlifter, novelist heathen. I was a husband (now divorced - and single), I’m also a father, weightlifter heathen - and I’m teaching my awesome autistic son camping skills. Bjørn’s channel brings great people together.🔥
Portland, Oregon (as well as that whole northwestern territory) is beautiful - beautiful like you with your pretty face in the picture there.😉
I’ll be in Colorado for the next couple of months. I’m on my seasonal paid vacation from my longtime career. I told my ex-wife that our son will be with me all summer long, she said ok. So if you are interested in meeting me, that feeling is mutual. Colorado is also beautiful and wild, my friend. I look forward to hearing from you!
Thank you for sharing this with us, Bjorn. It was so poignantly beautiful, felt like home, windy and cold, but still, the best place on earth. I'm sad to hear you lost your friend. Much love to you. x
Sorry foe the loas of your friend. Looks like a very reflective place to be, lots of space and beauty
Beautiful and peaceful ❤
Bjorn, we live near same latitude (62)...your videos always remind me of my woods here near Denali...sorry for the loss of your friend. Til Valhalla!
Condolences Bjorn it sucks losing old friends
I was touched by the hike today. Your dear friend's passing. The special place at the ancient burial mound. It looks so well tended and respected. And the loo is so practical. A well designed and constructed shelter place. So peaceful. I hope that you found inner peace in nature 🙏
I've been watching your videos on your channels for a while, and I have to say that this is the video I have enjoyed the most of all. Sorry about your friend. A lovely place, tusen takk.
Thanks Bjorn
Thank u for sharing this Valhalla experience, in honor of ur late friend. Enjoy all ur vids. Thank u for ur all ur efforts and teaching.
I enjoyed this video. I would have to bring a sketchbook and a notebook to sketch the ancient trees and write poetry. I am much older now, limited to much distance to cover. These days I slowly look to see what I have taken for granted in the past. I would enjoy seeing more of this wonderful place. Thank you!
I to lost a friend this winter . and the sound of wind and the view gave me a little closer . Your friend will always. Walk with you !😊
What a beautiful place.
A proper mourning rite! Skal!🪔
What a beautiful spot 👍🏻 I imagine on a clear night the stars must be amazing . Less flame /heat for the pancakes 🙂 you always make me chuckle , cheers 👍🏻🍻
I enjoy your relaxedness. Keep it up, you are giving inspiration to others. We all need it nowadays
Beautiful scenery.. love the drone view. thank you . I would love to one day see the northern lights
Hey Bjorn, I too have lost friends. Sadly in my field it is semi common. I feel your pain. I like to go into nature and talk with the aesir too. I am wicked jealous you get to enjoy valhalla on earth lol however thank you for sharing with those of us in America, Skal!
Kondolerer Bjørn. Veldig respektfullt å huske ham slik
Beautiful way to remember your friend 💕
Beautiful walk in the highlands and spirits from the family burial mound; very special outing! Condolences on your loss… may his adventures continue.
Thank you for this video .
I just discovered your channel and am enjoying it immensely! I'm currently living in a big European city, and feel disconnected from nature. It's nice to come along on these hikes at my desk for now. I've been to Norway once - visited Tromsø and Lofoten, where I did some hiking around the latter - and loved the country and the people. I used to live in the Pacific Northwest of the USA where I did a lot of hiking, and your videos bring back those times for me. I have a feeling I'm going to be binging on these hike videos! Cheers from Paris!
Very sorry about your friend as well. I've lost a few recently. All we can do is keep on going and celebrate their memory along the way.
I have watched this beautiful video so many times already. I greatly admire you going out there solo. I used to not think twice and now I am deterred by the many unspeakable things that happen for no reason. Thanks for letting us experience it with you. A fitting tribute to your friend. Sincere condolences.
Thank you for your kind words.
That was a beautiful place to remember your friend. The views were amazing. Thanks for taking us along.
Vilken genuin själ, tack för att du delade med dig. Hälsningar från Sverige.
I enjoy walking with you.
You may have lost a friend, but gained thousands more here. I am but one of them. All of us a company you on each of your outdoor treks.
Lovely and quiet. Looks like paradise. Sad about your friend - hopefully he will live on in your memories.
Such a beautiful video and a beautiful dedication to your friend. I am very sorry for your loss.
Thank you for sharing the views and the adventure! We can never get too much of that. ❤
Bjorn, that is really beautiful country and what a view in Valhalla, maybe some Shield maidens? I live in Texas and we don't have quiet have any views like the Fjord . I really enjoy your Outdoors channel.
Thanks for the great video. Watching these makes me wish I could travel to Norway. Keep them coming!
That was a nice video Bjorn, thank you for sharing your trip with us. One thing, though, that was very noticeable to me as a North American woman, was when you crumpled up your dinner bag and stuffed it into the corner of your tent. And then you ate your dinner inside of your tent, albeit in the doorway. It made me think that it must be really nice to backpack and sleep in a place where large predators aren't a big concern. You could completely relax and not have to worry about taking many precautions like we do here, like keeping all food away from your tent and hanging your garbage at night. Anyway, that was just something that I noticed. Also, your tent looked so cozy with the light on inside and dusk coming....it's so nice to crawl into your bed and lay there with the night sounds around you.
Bjorn, you are a master photographer, videographer and Drone king. 👑
Thank you so much for saying that!
A splendid, moving experience in a beautiful place. Thank you very much for making and sharing this experience.
I really love that old man in the tent. Glad you’re doing these. And yes, sure as rain, we will all meet or meet again ❤️🩹
Thank you for a beautiful experience shared.
Perhaps the voices heard were Valkyrie voices, taking Vikings to Valhalla.
I am sorry for your los of a friend Björn, know he is in Valhala and is moving on. I feel with you and send you healing Energy and peace❤
Sorry for your loss. Also thank you for all the videos on all the channels.
Hiking to Valhalla.. This is definitely the best title i have ever seen. So, now i'm gonna watch the vid 👍
edit:
The chicken curry made me hungry, beautiful drone footage.. Great vid again! Thanks for sharing, and greets from the Netherlands 🇳🇱, T.
Great video - I just love those krinkly pines down there - they're not as common here as in southern parts of our realm. Thinking of firtrees...time to have a look for some shoots; been a while since I foraged for that
Had to chuckle at the "extreme -6°C winter camping". Yeah, that's chilly at best for us norwegians, eh?
Just gorgeous landscape there!
After much thought I believe the voices were from your friend wanting to pass by as you made the trip there for him. He probably put up quite an argument to have one last chance to see you there out in nature. We are never completely alone the spirits of all who have gone before us are with us sometimes near and sometimes far.
Love your terrain there and such history.
My deepest condolences to you and your friend's family.
Thank you for taking us along on this honoring adventure on this special day and to such a very special place. As usual I was captivated by the scenery. I hope to tag along on many more adventures in the future. I love the videos that you make when you show us your country. It's very beautiful there. Blessings.
Thank you, my friend. I have now been through 5 winters with you. Thank you also for the music choice.
Amazing ,thank you , Bjorn! 💜🔥
A ransom of beauty in Valhalla. Refreshing. Thank you.
Thank you, Patricia!
You are welcome
Nice thing to do four your friend ! May him rest in piece .
Thanks a lot for sharing Bjorn. So sorry to hear you've lost a friend - may he rest in peace!!
Maybe the 2 ghosts you heard, were sent by him from where he is now, simply to look after you - who knows 😊
Thanks ahain and, take care!!😢
Stunning video with wonderful music and I especially like your drinking mug it's an unusual shape. I've never seen one like it before. Norway looks such a remote country and I see no cars.
Many thanks for this video.
Thank you for the beautiful scenery - I must confess I would rather see more of that than you eating. ha ha ha - but seriously - it's very beautiful there. Condolences on your loss.
Fantastic video Bjorn , I've lately been catching up on some of your older content. I love sharing your outdoor adventures with you . This video was very soulful I love your tribute to your dear friend who passed , I appreciate your kindred spirit and respect you greatly ,Keep on doing what you do best .and ill keep watching and supporting .
Gregory "Tiberius" Wright
Thank you so much, Gregory.
Beautiful area!❤️❤️❤️
I'm always Amazed how those Camping shelters that are built in Norway that people can use are never vandalized. Here in America, people would either Put graffiti all over them OR tear them apart for firewood.
The 2 female voices you heard were Valkyries?
You and yours are in my prayers.
Loss of a friend? You'll meet again.
im dreaming about going on trips like that. I love you videos
Thank you so much.
A beautiful area, Thanks for sharing..Sorry for your loss 😢
Thanks for taking us along to the beautiful place. It made my day a lot happier. Cheers!
