Hiking 80 Miles on the Skye Trail | Wild Camping Along Scotlands Best Hike

Рет қаралды 33,276

The Skye Trail on the Isle of Skye is an 80 mile multi day hike through some of the most breathtaking scenery the world has to offer. The trail is often unmarked and precarious, it's also exposed to the ever changing weather so experience in hiking and navigation is essential. 👇👇👇

I have always been into long distance hiking. I used to be able to carry the kitchen sink and walk forever... well, 30 miles wasn't unknown. For the first time, last month, on The Ridgeway of all places - undulating easiness - I had to accept that I am not the girl I was. The rain had muddied and rutted the trail. I slipped, slid and trudged. I had planned for an average of 15 miles a day and the weather had put me behind. Not only that, but I was aching - *panadol with caffeine works wonders - no spon.😉 On the third day I thought "What is the point of this?". So, I rocked up at an inn; got myself a room; showered (thrice) and strew my kit across the floor to dry. Then, I gave myself three more days by switching the train journey home. I stopped two nights at a campsite to do my laundry and have a rest day. The pub was visited (twice). I am jealous of your youth. But, I am retired, so there will be many a young lad or lass who are jealous of my 'time'. I believe we all have to spend our youth and time, wisely. Skye is one of the most beautiful places on the planet. May/June is the best time to go - more chance of sunshine and fewer midgies and tourists. Next year, God willing, I might pop back. My 'kitchen sink' is lighter and I have time.

do you really like it ?? i dont understand what people see in skye at all . its so bleak up here. Id swap for the ridgeway anyday. i loved living on the ridgeway. I also envy you thinking about hiking rather than ww3 and all the tyranny we are being corralled into . How are you so cheery ?

I know the feeling, I'm 44 and went through stage 2 aggressive cancer a few years back, let's just say it's an absolute struggle just cutting my lawn...I've moved on to kayak fishing and camping as I can sit down in my kayak and it's been a life saver, without that I would be in a really bad place.

Was waiting for the Golden Eagles to appear - had my best ever experience with a Golden Eagle on that ridge. Two were cycling with the Cuillin Mountains as a back drop. Then the one flew along the scarp just 30 feet away and level with me, as he passed he turned his head towards me then did a dive like a brick, then back up again. I felt he was saying "Watch this Mate !" - an unforgettable experience. Yes being in the great outdoors, especially on multi-day trips is good for us. All best Hazey

When I was a bread snapper at school, we always spent our summer hols in Scotland. All the other kids went to Spain or Ibiza and came back with a nice tan. We came back a whiter shade of pale, but at least we were "windswept and interesting", as The Big Yin put it.

Ah someone else who thinks about dinosaurs when roaming the mountains. I often listen to the Jurassic park album while walking and imagine what it was like when the dinosaurs were around, that extra sensory input makes a walk in the hills so much different.
