Hi Niall, Hi Lisa, wow, absolutely amazing, what a stunningly beautiful rugged landscape. I loved that trail, just amazing. A couple of sketchy places but great fun. Thanks as always for sharing your trek. Not long now before we take on the Cumbria Way. 😀🥾⛰🏕️
Thanks Dave. I have no head for heights but I coped ok. Cumbria way, I'll walk that one day. Nothing like walking and camping. I look forward to seeing your video later. Nice one.
I am doing this trail at the age of 59 in August but am staying at the hut at the top. I'm glad to see someone else that elected to go down on their "bum"! That is my strategy! Ha ha! That portion of the trail is what I am most concerned about. Thank you for posting this!
Hi. It took us 12 hours to get up and down but we stopped lots to film and take it all in. We originally wanted to camp at one of the two huts but we took a day longer on the laugavegur trail so we had to make this one in a day which was really do able. The bit where we came down on our bums is short really, took us about 20 minutes and it shouldn't worry you. Nothing bad can happen on your bum. Hope you have fun. Do check the weather before departing.
Uff, was that you? No way would I be keen on that. We checked the weather and checked again and we had luck on our side. If the camp site guys had said don't go, we wouldn't have gone. Thanks for commenting.
Hi both.👋 I finally got the time to relax and enjoy all your vid. Wow, 4 mins in that looked like a squeaky bum moment. Well done👏👏💪 Fair play.🫡 Map girl must have had her weetabix and was off. That looked so tough but you smashed it. 9.20 mins in looked scary. Black lava looked really cool, loved that. Only from 2010. I remember it well, we were in Kos in May, flight was delayed I think. I really don't like flying and felt so sick getting on the plane home. Always best way to go low and get down on your bum.👍 What an an amazing place to hike. That waterfall from you viewpoint. Oh man that really was something else. Huge! I loved that video. Nice pint at the end. Thanks.🫡👏👏👏👏
Hi Jamie, I got to say my legs were shaking, and it took me a lot longer than the video shows, and I'm not really afraid of heights. I love all our hikes but the scenery on this one was incredible.
@mapgirl70 Well done you.👏👏👍 I was really impressed. Really enjoyed that one. Such an amazing feeling after, you set out to do something, see something and you do it. Best feeling.👌👏👏
When in doubt Jamie, sit down, do nothing. That's got me this far, he he he. I usually scare quickly but I did ok on this one and when map girl is on form she waits for no one. 2010 really does seem like yesterday doesn't it. How time flies. I do like a waterfall Jamie as do you and there were some crackers on this hike. Thanks for keeping in touch.
@tubbatravels I really enjoyed that one. Don't think I'll ever get to go so it was really good to watch. Probably my favourite hiking video in a few months.👏👏👌
It is a wonderful country. Thanks for commenting. I've checked out your channel and subbed so hope to check out more of your videos in the future. Nice one.
I never knew it was called the cats spine, so thank you for that. I've looked up a few RUclips videos and their go pros do make it look super scary. I am probably the worst person I know for heights, my legs go cold and to jelly but honestly, this wasn't too bad. Taking care it was ok.
Thank you for this great sharing. It really helps in giving us some perspective of the entire trail. I am planning to do partial of the hike from Skorga to Baldvinsskali (Little Hut) and return on a day hike. Do you still recall how long you took from Baldvinsskali to Skorga?
Hi, it's hard to say as we were stopping to film so many waterfalls and send the drone up. If we hadn't done all that I think it would be about 6 hours. However we didn't come down the usual way. The lady in the hut told us of a ' better ' way down, so we did that. You could go up the normal usual way from skogar then at the hut ask the lady who works in the hut the alternative way down so you could do a loop. It's easy and you can't get lost and it meets up with the usual way. I say the lady's name as well leave the hut, she made us a free coffee and I mention her in the video. Good luck.
@@tubbatravels Thank you so much for your suggestion about completing it in a loop, that's a great idea! I certainly hope the 'alternative' way down is equally well marked. Anyway I am grateful for your sharing. Thank you and have a great adventure next!
@@wuichong it's really easy. Just ask the lady but there are so many other waterfalls to see by going the alternative way and it meets with the main path.
Such an awesome hike and trail! The place looks so beautiful. Thanks for sharing! 👍
Thank you for commenting. I subbed your channel. Lovely music and images.

It truly was amazing, it took your breath away. I'll look forward to seeing your CW.
@@mapgirl70 Hi Lisa, yeah we are getting excited for it now. 3 weeks today. 😀
Nice one Tubba and Map Girl, I'll watch this at the weekend looks adventitious and exotic! :D
Hey @snowymatrix , cheers man, it was a different one for us. Really nervous about it before setting off but it went really well. Have a good weekend.

Cool video Tubba, thanks for Sharing 😊👍🌅
Thank you, much appreciated.
Outstanding scenes! Really makes you want to get out there and into the outdoors.
It really is a great place. Thank you.
Now imagine being on that ridgeline in the rain with 80-100kmph gusts. The wise and prudent opted out that day LOL!!
Uff, was that you? No way would I be keen on that. We checked the weather and checked again and we had luck on our side. If the camp site guys had said don't go, we wouldn't have gone. Thanks for commenting.
@@tubbatravels Good on you for doing it. It's not a trivial hike even in the best of conditions! Respect!!
@@neologian1783 thank you. Many varied sights and landscapes to see. It was wonderful.
That IS a Hike! Amazing. Like on the another planet or on the moon!
Thank you, we really enjoyed it.
Very cool. I went to Iceland in the winter and was a different experience. Thanks 🙏
Hi Craig. Yes I saw my friends trip in the winter, it's much more of a challenge. Thank you for commenting.

Don't think I'll ever get to go so it was really good to watch.
Probably my favourite hiking video in a few months.👏👏👌
Great hike and amazing view along the way. Thanks for sharing. Greetings from India
Wow great to get a comment from India. Many thanks. I subbed to your channel as well. Hello.

Hello. I just subbed your channel as I am interested a lot in Botswana. Nice to meet you.
@@tubbatravelsThank you so much. I truly appreciate it 💫
Ohhh wowwwwww😮😮😮😮😮
Thank you.
Would love to do this - but the Cats Spine is too steep for me!
