The Lost Valley - Glencoe - Hillwalking Scotland

- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
- This was my first trip to the lost valley in Glencoe. I’d heard so many people talk about it and seen so many pictures that i had to go take a look for myself. It did not disappoint! The lost valley is a one of a kind special place, tucked away between two of the 3 sisters of Glencoe.
The lost valley takes an hour or so to reach on foot over straightforward terrain and the effort is well rewarded.
After reaching the valley, we headed up the far end to the summit of Stob Corie Sgreamhach, a Munro at 1072m. The visibility on the day was superb and we could see over to the Mamores, the rest of the Glencoe Munros and some of the more southern Munros such as Ben Lui and Ben Cruachan. We couldn’t have asked for more. Perfect day out on the hills.

So beautiful mountains, Glencoe must be one of the most beautiful places in the World
What an amazing video! We went to The Lost Valley few years ago and I am in love with it. Scotland is a true gem!
Thanks! It's a special place indeed! 😁
Great Video, I did that route up to Bidean nam Bien in the 80’s, couldn’t get up there now.
beautiful!
Awesome, loving your work.
Cheers Robert! Glad you enjoyed, appreciate it. Kris.
Dear friend, i like your beautiful and informative clip, thank you so much for sharing the clip, i just subscribe to your channel, keep up the good work.
Thank you very much for your kind words 🙂
Superbly shot Kris 👌 It's a great wee place. I'll go back with the other half and the dog. Easy wee walk for them 😉
Cheers Kevin! Yeah, its an absolute beauty! Sounds like a plan, i'm sure they'll both love it! 😁 Take care, Kris.
Awesome!
Loving the drone shots 👍
What a cinematic adventure!! Loved it!! The Scottish Spielberg. Everything about this video is perfect. Karate chopped the competition and the summit!
Haha thanks Blair! Appreciate it! Lucky for me the hill wont karate chop back! 😝
Yet again another superb post Kris.Bidean is a very special mountain.
Thanks Alan! It's one I've still to climb, looking forward to it one day. Getting up there when its quiet will be the trickiest part I think 😄 cheers. Kris.
Great video
Well shot and well edited with a good dialogue
Ah great stuff Kris! Brings back nice memories mate :) I mind i walked through the Lost Valley about 6 am-ish and i was strangely paranoid about making noise for some reason. One of they moments i think. Another epic big man! peter.
Haha, the amount of campers i saw heading up there, i would imagine it would end up feeling like tip toeing through a campsite early in the morning 🤣 Cheers Peter!
Absolutely beautiful did couple of times one on my favorite 😍
Fantastic footage! Inspired me to get up to Scotland and go exploring.
Cheers Mark! Appreciate it. There’s certainly plenty to see up here! 🙂
Great vid, thanks a lot for creating it.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. Appreciate your comment. Kris.
I camped up there myself a long time ago. Love the drone shots.
Thanks Neil! I've not camped there myself yet but I think it's so well known nowdays that it can be a bit crowded!
Enjoyed your video, thanks mate.
Cheers Steve!
Amazing video!

Thanks Sam! Wish the weather was like that every time! 😆
I have just found you via the comments section of Walk with Wallace .... And I am so pleased I have . This was a wonderfully produced video of a wonderful place . I thoroughly enjoyed it and am looking forward to catching up on your past videos when I get the time . Thank you for posting this atb :D Teddy
Thanks so much for the kind words Teddy, much appreciated.
You are welcome :D
Lovely stuff sir! One of the first videos I've seen at reveal the route up :)
Appreciate it Scott! Looking forward to getting back up there and doing Bidean nam Bian as well, hopefully sometime soon! Cheers!
@@ScottishMountainGoat Aye, definitely! It’s been on my list for a good wee while now 🙂
Magical! Patrick Dickinson's youtube channel led me here.
Thanks Penny! I'm subscribed to Patrick myself, I enjoy watching his camping trips 😁 Hopefully the wilderness will be open for business again soon and everyone can get back out there.
Hi, great video. Could I ask what music/artist you used for the background? Cheers 🙂
Thanks Thomas. The song is "I'll go my own way" by Pendulum Theory. Cheers.
Scottish Mountain Goat Great choice of music. Thanks 👍🏻
Top cinamatic film Kris, excellent voiceover too. 👍🏼 Nailed it! Did you sneak in Bidean Nan Bian too?
Cheers
Robin
Aw cheers man appreciate it. Didnt record any vlog footage so I had no choice! Haha. Nah, we headed back down after sgreamhach. Looking forward the Bidean another day though!
@@ScottishMountainGoat you pulled it off nicely then. 😁
Superb video.
How long would you say, that it takes, there and back from the car park to the summit please?
On any of these hills plan for the day. I've done them all, I usually arrived around 10/11ish and I'm up and back down in an around 4 to 5 hours. I've also put my fell running shoes and did it under 2 hours. I've done the Ben Nevis hill race in 2.25, coming back down is the hard bit, not going up, that's easy.
@@Insolation1 thanks for the reply.
Me and my girlfriend stop to take photos at every opportunity so I think we will add a few hours onto your guidelines 🙂
Porque nadie muestra el poblado Glencoe, solo muestran senderos y montañas, yo quiero ver sus casas sus localidades
It's probably because the town isn't as you imagine it to be. Google maps is probably the best way to see it.
That was beautiful! I want your video-making skills. Why is it called The Lost Valley? A second visit to the highlands is long overdue. Cheers, Mari
Thanks Mari! Well it has a couple of names including the hidden valley. I've heard the story with that is the MacDonald clan used to hide their cattle up here from the Campbell clan. I can see why! I wouldn't expect to see a cow up there! 😆 Thanks for watching! Kris.
Scottish Mountain Goat yeah, the drone footage made you all look so tiny up on that ridge. Fascinating.. thanks for the info! I’ve just added it to my list. 🤓 Looking forward to watching more of your videos. Cheers, Mari
Makes me sick that my knees are gone, so I'm no longer capable of climbing these hills any longer.
How hard or easy is the walk? I have hiked since I did Ben A’an in July 2021
I'd say it's a pretty easy one to do in a few hours in summer. Might be a bit riskier in winter with avalanche risk from the surrounding mountains though.
Awesome video. How much time does it take to walk from the bottom of the valley to the viewpoint displayed from 3:13 ?
Cheers! I reckon i'd give myself about 3 to 3.5 hours going at a leisurely pace. That point is only about 15 minutes walk from the summit Stob Coire Sgreamhach. It's a brilliant walk all the way though!
@@ScottishMountainGoat thank you so much for the kindest reply. I have one more question, would you recommend the regular hike to the Lost Valley if it's raining? I'll be visiting Scotland in two weeks and it's raining season in the highlands. Is it still doable?
@@OldSchoolMetalVinyl No problem. Yeah it's still doable in the rain but there is a small river crossing. On a dry day you can use the stepping stones across it but you might get wet feet on a rainy day if the river is high
@@ScottishMountainGoat lovely. Will put my water proof Doc Martens in the bag and definitely do it. Thank you once again for both the amazing video and kind replies.
