Well Done Robin and Iain a great achievement and you don't even look that knackered after it!!! Keep up the vlogging it keeps us all going giving us a wee 20minute escape from our busy lives!!
Epic Robin. Well done to you both. A cracking series and will be so useful to others who follow. Some amazing pathless bog trotting, glad you both made it. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
What an achievement. We’ll done Robin and Iain. I’ve really enjoyed following your adventure, excellent filming and looking forward to the next one. Thanks
Old School Restaurant/Hotel is to be recommended indeed: Stayed there for 3 nights 3 years ago whilst exploring the area: Fantastic food, super friendly owners and clean comfortable rooms. Top notch place!
Had fish and chips there 2 weeks ago , on par with any Whitby fish and chip shop , (after so many disappointing fish suppers in Inverness) ,they also do a good Cullen skink
Well done both of you! Really enjoyed this section, obviously ☺. Sorry I'd just moved away or I'd have come to say hello! You'll need to come up with a new adventure now 😁
@@WalkWithWallace I do miss the place, but I'm enjoying being home too. I've found out I'm an Easter Ross girl in my heart! But I'll always love going back there.
That is my plan as well, May 2022. So far I will be doing this solo but I might find a partner. Either way it will be a grand adventure. Best of luck to you on yours.
Congratulations Robin and Jim not an undertaking I'd do my myself , really enjoyed the last 4 days keen fisherman that I am fished up above inchdamph out towards foinavin and arkle and the lochs out to sandwood bay many happy memories of staying in the school house with work . thanks to both of you for bringing back good times 👏👏👏👏👏
Well done to u+ Ian, a great effort! I hope u haven't got shin splints! It is a nasty condition, it ruined my running career however I was doing 100 mile per week at times! It has been a great video with ups and down,! Cheers Robin! Mark.
Congrats to both of you for finishing this walk. It looks like the weather was as kind as it possible could be throughout most of the hike and I am so pleased it was.The humans and I enjoyed watching the places we will never be able to venture to . Thanks for sharing Take care : ) Teddy
Thanks Teddy, I don't think we can complain about the weather at all. First 9 days hardly a spot of rain and the other 6 days wasn't that bad either. 😁
Congratulations Robin and Ian and thanks for sharing your adventure, watching people undertake a long trip is just fantastic and nothing is better than watching people on the CWT. 👍❤️
Fantastic trip chaps, and many thanks for making the films. What a trip and a superb execution. You must be so proud and pleased with your efforts. What a brilliant result over very tough terrain. 100% well done to you both.
I would give anything to experience having that whole beach to enjoy with no one else there, we just don’t get opportunities like that here, what a gorgeous moment, thank you for taking us along with you on this incredible journey!
Camped at Sandwood on many occasions , twice in the last 2 months , every time we had it to ourselves or one other tent , it's become more well known with the NC500 and videos like this ! But still a beautiful remote beach worth making the effort to walk the 4 miles in from oldshoremore.
Congratulations. I've enjoyed your journey and was pleased to see that you enjoyed fine weather for the vast majority of your trip. Lovely to see the stunning scenery.
Bit late to the party in watching the CWT box-set. Absolutely phenomenal stuff. Very well captured. Congratulations to the pair of you - what a beautifully epic slog! Cracking view of Orkney at the finish must make it all worth it 😉
Well done Robin, What a great set of video's. I've walked over moving bogs like that going into to hill Lochs to fly fish before and it totally saps my energy big time on boggy ground like that and I did no where near the miles you guys did each day, so hats off to you both for finishing the whole walk and filming it for all us to watch. I can fully understand how you would get ups and downs on a hike that long and I don't mean the hills. It was a great achievement by you both.👍 Atb Glenn.
Thanks Glenn, it's typically British isn't it, trudging through bog. 😆 Some of the tracks on the trail really help to claw back the miles lost on the boggy sections.
Well done Robin cracking set of videos, thoroughly enjoyed every one. Thank you for sharing and all the work putting them all together. Take care. Mick.
Well done , both of you! Thanks for vlogging this, Robin.... It's been inspirational. Not only for the amazing scenery but for your thoughts and emotions along the way. Fantastic job, all round.
Stonking series! You gave a real sense of the place, the trail, the challenges and how it feels to be on it. I've done similar routes (though I now realise probably not quite as hard) elsewhere and can it really relates.
@@WalkWithWallace It certainly looks big! Also very rough, lots bog and 'There's no track, I think it's that way'. I was thinking of the Kungsleden in Sweden (Abisko to Kvikkjokk) and the Troms Border Trail (mostly in Norway) when I wrote that. I can't see anything in the UK rivalling the CWT!
@@davidfisher92 I'd love to do something in Serek. Looks amazing over there. The Pennine Way is longer, but has more towns and paths? 🤔 Otherwise you'd have to do the full Scottish National Trail that includes the CWT.
@@WalkWithWallace I've been to Sarek too and it is incredible - definitely go when you can! I've done sections of the Pennine way and they weren't as remote / wild underfoot as the CWT looks... Anyway enough geeking out - congratulations and thanks for a great series!
Excellent well done Lads, really enjoyed the videos, you have most definitely whetted my appetite for this Trail, all I need to do now is get a lot fitter and prepared, for what looks like a magnificent journey, thanks again :-)
Fantastic effort. Thoroughly enjoyed watching each video. Robin I now use your videos for planning my walks so many thanks for that. Keep up the good work and looking forward to your next adventure.
The north west of Scotland during my mother's childhood were a world away from today in regards to employment and other opportunities. No wonder she headed to the bright lights of Strathpeffer.
Jeez, I shuddered when you mentioned ITBS. It struck me for a few months in 2008 and I had never heard of it and it caused me a great deal of concern. A throwaway comment by someone diagnosed it and I managed to eventually get it sorted. Anyway, well done mate on completing the CWT. I recall vividly my emotions when I completed the Pennine Way....very mixed feelings indeed. ATB, Chris
Aye, it's not good mate. Thankfully it is quite easy to address with stretches and foam rolling. 😁 I was eying up the Pennine Way myself, I can ping some questions your way when I get around to doing it. 👍🏻
Well done and congratulations to both of you! Looks seriously tough but incredibly adventurous and wild! Something to definitely be proud of that I'm sure you'll have great memories of for the future. I've looked forward to and enjoyed each installment immensely ^_^
What a superb series this has been to watch, a massive well done to both you and Iain, thank you for taking the trouble to take a camera and make these videos, it looks like an amazing trail, m. I have a soft spot for those remote Scottish landscapes, seems like going back in time and you can imagine what the world would have been like before civilisation took over. I hope in centuries to come the Cape Wrath Trail looks exactly the same as you saw it. All the very best, GJ
Thanks Gordon, it is a cracking trail and difficult to imagine what it'll look like in years to come. 🤔 Have you and or the Shropshire Mafia got any plans for Scotland? Think covid put your WHW on hold?
@@WalkWithWallace it did indeed but seeing the weather we had in April and May it may have been a blessing🤣. We have outline plans to do the Great Glen Way this autumn Fingers crossed.
@@ashropshirelad ha yeah, looked like Iain and I got the best of the weather of April/May. Nice one mate, looking forward to seeing how you guys get on with the Great Glen Way.
@@WalkWithWallace It’s definitely not a walk in the park. I completed the trail in 2013, like you 15days with a couple of rest days. I was joined by my wife for the last two days, walking into Sandwood bay then to the lighthouse.
@@peterlambert3260 that would have been nice to finish it with your wife. Nicola thought about travelling up to Durness to meet me, but it's a logistical mare on public transport, particularly during a pandemic.
@@peterlambert3260 we're thinking about doing the WHW together, which would be really nice as we can eat out and do a mix of camping and other accommodation. 😁
Bloody brilliant Robin. Firstly, I've just bought the Lowa Grindle that Ian was wearing this last week. I was going to take them back because I went for the Lowa Explorer and they didn't have them in my size. They were specifically designed for thru hiking but the Grindle aren't. But Ian is saying they are good for thru hiking. He's made my mind up. Secondly, great trail. Seeing you guys shake hands in the way you did said it all for me. Enjoyed every video. Well done. Mark
Congratulations well done guys I've enjoyed going along with the journey immensely. 3 years ago I did a solo walk from Cape Wrath to Sandwood Bay then followed the inlet stream at the head of Sandwood Loch up to the Rhiconich/Durness Road , magical.
Thank you Marella, I've just had a look at the map to see your route. Must have been quite boggy and rough? Good idea to avoid all that road walking though.
Congratulations 🏆 🍻. A great series of vlogs. Much appreciated you taking the 5ine and carrying the extra weight to bring this to RUclips for us. THANKS!! 💪 👏
What a great series and fantastic achievement, really enjoyed watching over the past few weeks seeing the highs and lows of your journey through some amazing country..... Well done to the both of you.....
Cracking achievement you Two ! What an amazing place it is up there in that corner… Soooo remote, but what about those Views 👍👍 Thanks for putting it all together Robin and uploading. You got some great memories there to look back on 🏆
What an adventure, Iain mentioned the CWT he did with you when we were staying up at Forestway’s and whilst suffering from a bout of Covid I decided to occupy myself by taking a gander. Absolutely loved every single second, start to finish. I had no idea just what an epic commitment it is. As always I respected your open and honest documentary.. and I particularly enjoyed the humorous moments. Btw much prefer Iain with a beard…just sayin😂 While staying in Bearnaise Bothy we bumped into a New Zealand girl, as well as doing the CWT she was taking in the Munro’s along the way also, we knew she wasn’t talking BS as we’d bumped into her up the Cheesecake Munro earlier in the day….. now that’s hard core.
Cheers Tim, reflecting back on this. I loved every minute of it, even the last couple of days where I was getting fed up of it 🤣 To bag the Munros too, is mental. Bernais is an amazing bothy.
Big congrats to you both Robin, an epic achievement! Must have been a great feeling to be back home and sleeping in a comfy bed after all that! Brilliant series, cheers for taking us on the journey!
@ 26:12 try no look too happy Robin ha ha! Well done big man what a trek you and Ian done could see as you mentioned before all they miles were catching up a wee bit and nae wonder many would have chucked well before the end! Big thumbs mate you two really pushed it on this one 🍺👏👍
@@MUNROSnCORBETTS definitely mate and I was still smiling yesterday watching this back on the premiere. Not sure how you top that, it's the mecca of Scottish trails. Will just stick to the Munros and Corbetts with Kev. 😁
@@MUNROSnCORBETTS I don't mind at all, it's on the RUclips audio library. But it's on my laptop, next time I fire up I'll give you a shout as I can't remember the name of the song.
An excellent finale to this series which has captured the ups and downs of a long distance backpack superbly 👍 Not sure how you follow that but hope you do produce something similar in the future. Congratulations to both of you on completing 👍
Cheers Graham, it was a joy to produce even when the chips were down a bit. I hope to do some more long distance stuff, but it will be back to the overnighters/weekend mountain backpacking trips for now as my annual leave has been depleted. 😬
Great stuff well done to both of you on completing it, you gave a great overview and understanding of what it’s all about (and what parts you can go back into civilisation and get supplies!). Most definitely on the list to do. Look forward to seeing what comes next!
Cheers Booker, I'm glad you found it useful as that was part of the aim of the videos too. Haven't been out much, but I've got a couple of videos in the pipeline for next month. 😊
Hi Guys, quite some achievement congratulations, thank you for taking us along with you both. I hope that you do a over view of this adventure..... kit , does and don't tips and bites etc ? ATVB 👍🏔
Aww it’s finished! Well done for completing, I’m happy for you both, I’m happy to have followed your journey but I’m sad it’s over and done with. Bittersweet! Right that’s the congratulations oot o the way, now see if you really were going to put your gear on EBay I’ll pay whatever it takes to get the tights/shorts combo, just to make sure we never have to see them again. I’m with you on Chase Mountains, his knee strength and flexibility stuff worked wonders for me, I practically run down hills now. Brilliant stuff Robin, keep it up pal.
I was a bit sad too with the last episode going out, I enjoyed filming and editing these. 😁 Loved your comments throughout on the tights and shorts combo. 😂 Chase Mountains was a total accidental find by the way, I found him looking at my own channel analytics and he popped up. Great find, the stretches made the difference. 🧘♂️

Thank you Marella, I've just had a look at the map to see your route. Must have been quite boggy and rough? Good idea to avoid all that road walking though.
@@WalkWithWallace Yes a bit squelchy in places, the stream from Sandwood up to the road was 6 miles and rocky , steep and stumble territory.
@@marellacoyle6999 I can imagine it being similar to the Cape Wrath area itself.
Congratulations 🏆 🍻. A great series of vlogs. Much appreciated you taking the 5ine and carrying the extra weight to bring this to RUclips for us.
THANKS!!
💪 👏
Thanks Gavin, I can honestly say it was a pleasure to film and edit these to share, plus the memories captured on film too. 🏕 👣 😁
Well done Big yin, been another cracking watch, great achievement and effort by you both. 💪💪💪🥃
Cheers Neil. 😁 Thanks for chipping in with a comment too. 👍🏻
What a great series and fantastic achievement, really enjoyed watching over the past few weeks seeing the highs and lows of your journey through some amazing country.....
Well done to the both of you.....
Thank you Jon, looking back it was a fantastic experience. Definitely would like to do something like that again. 😁
Cracking achievement you Two ! What an amazing place it is up there in that corner… Soooo remote, but what about those Views 👍👍 Thanks for putting it all together Robin and uploading. You got some great memories there to look back on 🏆
Cheers mate, definitely a great collection to watch back on. 😁
What an adventure, Iain mentioned the CWT he did with you when we were staying up at Forestway’s and whilst suffering from a bout of Covid I decided to occupy myself by taking a gander.
Absolutely loved every single second, start to finish. I had no idea just what an epic commitment it is. As always I respected your open and honest documentary.. and I particularly enjoyed the humorous moments. Btw much prefer Iain with a beard…just sayin😂
While staying in Bearnaise Bothy we bumped into a New Zealand girl, as well as doing the CWT she was taking in the Munro’s along the way also, we knew she wasn’t talking BS as we’d bumped into her up the Cheesecake Munro earlier in the day….. now that’s hard core.
Cheers Tim, reflecting back on this. I loved every minute of it, even the last couple of days where I was getting fed up of it 🤣
To bag the Munros too, is mental. Bernais is an amazing bothy.
Well done Robin & Ian great effort and enjoyed your CWT series. Cheers, Charlie.
Cheers Chaz. 👍🏻 😎
Well done to both of you.Great achievement and has been great watching your progress in the videos.😃👏👏
Cheers Andy. 😁 👍🏻
Big congrats to you both Robin, an epic achievement! Must have been a great feeling to be back home and sleeping in a comfy bed after all that! Brilliant series, cheers for taking us on the journey!
Cheers Kris and for watching the series and dropping into the premieres too. 😁
Well done to you and Ian, really enjoyable video's
Thanks James. 😎👍🏻
You know what mate that was really good, thank you for sharing x
Thanks Andy. I appreciate it mate. 👍🏻 😁
Well done 👍. Fantastic 👏
Cheers buddy. 😁 👍🏻
@ 26:12 try no look too happy Robin ha ha! Well done big man what a trek you and Ian done could see as you mentioned before all they miles were catching up a wee bit and nae wonder many would have chucked well before the end! Big thumbs mate you two really pushed it on this one 🍺👏👍
Haha, I think it was still to sink in mate, feeling a bit numb after years of wanting to do it and finally got there. 😁 👣
@@WalkWithWallace Know what you mean Robin when all calmed down you must have been on cloud nine! Well what next? Any big plans that could top that?
@@MUNROSnCORBETTS definitely mate and I was still smiling yesterday watching this back on the premiere. Not sure how you top that, it's the mecca of Scottish trails. Will just stick to the Munros and Corbetts with Kev. 😁
@@WalkWithWallace Robin if you dont mind mate could you tell me the name of the music @ 3:46? Pretty catchy :)
@@MUNROSnCORBETTS I don't mind at all, it's on the RUclips audio library. But it's on my laptop, next time I fire up I'll give you a shout as I can't remember the name of the song.
Brilliant Guys and congratulations.
Cheers Malcolm. 😎👍🏻
Well done mate... Great effort.
Cheers Martyn. 😁 👍🏻
An excellent finale to this series which has captured the ups and downs of a long distance backpack superbly 👍 Not sure how you follow that but hope you do produce something similar in the future. Congratulations to both of you on completing 👍
Cheers Graham, it was a joy to produce even when the chips were down a bit. I hope to do some more long distance stuff, but it will be back to the overnighters/weekend mountain backpacking trips for now as my annual leave has been depleted. 😬
A bloody good walk and video. I hope you had a few good pints after it.
Thanks John. Got home first then enjoyed a few gins with the missus, as I missed her loads. ☺️
Well done, it was great to watch the whole series. It really makes me want to do something similar some day!
Thanks James and I'd definitely recommend the CWT or trying a long distance hike. 👍🏻
well done . all the best and thanks for sharing
Thanks John. 😁 👍🏻
Great stuff well done to both of you on completing it, you gave a great overview and understanding of what it’s all about (and what parts you can go back into civilisation and get supplies!). Most definitely on the list to do. Look forward to seeing what comes next!
Cheers Booker, I'm glad you found it useful as that was part of the aim of the videos too. Haven't been out much, but I've got a couple of videos in the pipeline for next month. 😊
Superbos Robin! Congrats 💃🏻 Great series and some really funny moments ;))
Thank you Camille, chuffed you liked them including the wee funny bits. 😁 👍🏻
Excellent. Congratulations
Thank you. 😎
Great little series, bet it was awesome. Looks like you really lucked out with the weather, stunning!
Cheers Daniel and we definitely lucked out with the weather. Waterproofs came out twice the whole time. 😁
Hi Guys, quite some achievement congratulations, thank you for taking us along with you both.
I hope that you do a over view of this adventure..... kit , does and don't tips and bites etc ?
ATVB

Cheers Dave, I'm thinking of doing a live Q&A next Thursday. I've ran a test and no glitches. 😁
Walk With Wallace 👣 great idea Robin , your be in an dated.... look forward to that mate.
Good weekend.
👍🍺
@@discoverydave8541 cheers Dave and you too mate. 😁
Congratulations, what a journey. Well done mate. Sorry to spoil the party but Scotland didn’t make it at the euros. 🏴
Cheers Billy. 👍🏻 😁 I unfortunately had to endure watching that game against Croatia. 👀🙈
Aww it’s finished! Well done for completing, I’m happy for you both, I’m happy to have followed your journey but I’m sad it’s over and done with. Bittersweet! Right that’s the congratulations oot o the way, now see if you really were going to put your gear on EBay I’ll pay whatever it takes to get the tights/shorts combo, just to make sure we never have to see them again. I’m with you on Chase Mountains, his knee strength and flexibility stuff worked wonders for me, I practically run down hills now. Brilliant stuff Robin, keep it up pal.
I was a bit sad too with the last episode going out, I enjoyed filming and editing these. 😁
Loved your comments throughout on the tights and shorts combo. 😂
Chase Mountains was a total accidental find by the way, I found him looking at my own channel analytics and he popped up. Great find, the stretches made the difference. 🧘♂️
Well done mate. Enjoyed the whole journey with you both. I need to get back to Sandwood Bay a magical place!
Thank you and yes Sandwood Bay is rather nice. Just go outwith the holiday season. 😁
Well done Robin, an epic adventure which I have really enjoyed watching!! Look forward to getting out with you soon! Cheers 🥂
Cheers Lee and hopefully we can get another trip organised as its been too long mate. 👍🏻
Thanks lads. Enjoyed watching that. I hope to do it one day.
Cheers Ken. I couldn't recommend it enough. An amazing experience.
