I think this is your best video EVER ! I used to be all about mountain biking and found that my desire to live on the edge all the time lost its novelty after awhile. PLEASE do more hiking and self-introspection videos. YOU are the most interesting part of your videos.

"normally people go in to the hut and socialize but I just stay outside and enjoy nature" love it Yuka 🥂

A blind person could have seen this coming, Im glad for you and Im grateful we got to tag along. I hope you can return to MTB as an enjoyable hobby and not such a job in the future. Your fans eagerly await the next big changes and we'll cheer you on along the way

Eric should wake up evey day and thank you for being in his life. Great video as always

Yes Yuka! You found a new challenge.

Youre an amazing person Yuka, Thank you for bringing us along with you.

I think most of us mountain bikers enjoy the solitude... even when biking trails with friends you're still mostly alone. Love your videos Yuka!

Amazing Yuma!! Congratulations

"all i had to do was walk.... for 10 hours" lol. you're an inspiration yuka. this video really resonates with me. i'm taking a "break from everything" myself atm. got burned out from doing the things i loved too much, with too many expectations, and it wasn't fun anymore. but i feel like i'm nearing the end of the break now that i find myself doing those things in my dreams once again :)

After about 18 years of Mtbing I too started to feel burnt out from Mtbing. Looking for a change I bought my first gravel bike. It was the answer I was looking for. A whole different style of riding, so much fun. Seven plus years later and I love riding my gravel bike just as much as my Mtb. So now I alternate between the 2 for variety. I admire your courage doing a 7 day hike on your own. You are an inspiration of life, keep it up.

Another slightly different video -- spice for your channel. It reminded me of your trip to Japan after you got injured and your adventure "camping" in a UHaul in Canada. Thank you for taking us along to see that gorgeous scenery!

Laughed so hard with the square poop, hilarious! Great adventure, crazy beautiful there!

I’ve been following you since a while now and this was by far the most touching video in a while. It put me back into my shoes when I did the short Cradle mountain round (3 day hike). Your kind of story telling and your loveliness are different from most other creators. Keep pushing for your dreams and following your passion as long as you keep being a true inspiration.

Worst thing is all the "buddies" - what I used to call folks in close proximity on bike rides or walks (hikes). I always hated having buddies, as getting away from people was one of my motivations for hikes or bike rides. Enjoy your break.

You two are too much fun. Come back to Bellingham and ride again this summer! Cheers!

This brought back some memories! Day 1 is always so busy with day hikers and then it gets quieter. Looks like all the huts were brand new. Great video Yuka

I have done the overland with my family and loved it hope you have a good break and enjoy ur stay in aussie!

Great video. You have been through so much this year. I wish for you the comfort of your own self. You don't need us, your viewers, to be amazing. That is already in your nature.

I did that same walk many years ago. In the middle of summer. It snowed half way. A girl had to be airlifted out after swimming (it was aslo very hot) in a granite hole that covered her with leeches. There was a long stretch jumping from lump of button grass to another - for hours and hours. The tree roots killed our feet and legs. The huts were in poor condition. There weren't many board walks. We had to walk through water waste deep for half a kilometer. We cheered up at Lake St.Claire.

What a great journey Yuka!!!! 👋👋👋

Hi Yuka, I am sorry that you are going through a hard time. I think this is God’s way of making you rethink what is important, and to ask for help and guidance. I hope that you continue to ride. You are an inspiration, you are passionate and persistent. You will be ok. P.S., Eric needs to give you all out massage. Take care, and God bless Don

Well done Yuka! Sleeping alone out in the forest after a long walk is good for keeping a clean mind. When beeing out trekking I love it when the different days blur and you no longer know exactly which day it is today. Then all worries, constraints and hardships from normal life are forgotten and only the here and now counts. Thank you for letting us be part of this!

Yuka you are my inspiration your so awesome I love your spirit and sense of humour you rock girl and I wish you all the best ❤❤❤❤❤

Fantastic video and glad you finally got to do it and tick it off your list. Breathtaking scenery

Thanks for taking us along 👍🏻

Lovely of you to share the journey with us especially if you were feeling exhausted.

Beautiful!! Thanks for the vicarious hike, and some childhood memories. I left Tasie for Canada 50 years ago. It seems they have fixed the trail a bit in the last 50 years. People used to get lost on that trail and never be seen again. My father used to participate in search parties.

Such a good video Yuka-pei ❤

Thanks for sharing your adventure!

Nice to run into yesterday. Hope you enjoyed the riding here in Hobart.

Brilliant! Loved the square poop bit 😂🙏🏼

What a powerhouse you are Yuka. Much respect. Thanks for taking us along with you.

That hike looks so epic. Thanks for taking us on the adventure.

So beautiful, what a amazing hike, thanks for sharing 😊

You are strong lady, always will be. Take it easy enjoy.

You are amazing and inspiring Yuka and what a great job documenting it. Thank you for sharing!

Beautiful video....very inspirational 👏🏼

This was a very relaxing watch, thank you so much Yuka.

This was a great video! Congrats on the great adventure.

Thanks for taking us on such an awesome journey. All the pain seemed so worth it. 💪🏽

Loved your adventure. Thanks for sharing.

"i had fun. every step had a pain". what an absolute maniac

You are amazing, Yuka. Thanks for taking us on such an awesome journey. Greeting from Singapore.

great vlog. good narrative and awesome shots of the scenery

Glad you did that trail and checked it off your list Yuka!!! Such a great trial and your video bring back many memories of walking that trail!!! Thanks for a great video

What an amazing trip! The views and time to recharge your social battery must have been amazing! Great job Yuka!

Very inspirational thank you! Time to make a list and start crossing things off 🤟

That looked great. It was fantastic seeing you in Tassie, and wonderful that you made to the SOHO Enduro!

You are an inspiration Yuka! Hope you loved our beautiful Tasmanian. Such a beautiful place 🙏

Great vid! I watched every video you produced for some years now. Good job with your hike!

what an amazing and beautiful adventure, as always a wonderful story telling and imagery, thank you for sharing .

Well done on the endurance and mental fortitude front again Yuka 😊a small but invaluable bit of advice...wear a well cushioned pair of socks when hiking...you'll be well surprised by the difference they make 👍looking forward to your next adventure 😊

Your videos always inspire me. Great non-bike video. Getting back into MTN biking after a 20yr break and your videos help battling my basically beginner mental blocks. Keep the videos coming and thanks!

Yuka-san, I'm so proud of you!

Beautiful scenery and shots! Glad you're doing well! We all need to disconnect at times.

That was a crazy trek. Good for you for making it through. It’s tough to hike with a lot of weight in your pack.

One of the best Yuka videos ever!

Well done Yuka! You’re an inspiration. I’ve missed you.

Great video. Great effort. Well done Yuka.

That is such a beautiful part of Australia - I was there in 2021. So glad you could experience it.

Congratulations on ticking this one off your bucket list!! Great video!

So good to see you in my neck of the woods. Great video. You are very tough to take this on your own

I did the first section of this hike a number of year ago. It is a beautiful part of the world. Great video and remember just do what makes you happy and you will be happy. I feel in love with wombats on this trip. Still my favourite animal 10 years later.

15:50 Yes - every backpack trip I have been on (in my youth) left some open hurt! Usually in my feet, but sometimes from some stumble and scrape. You should have asked some experienced backpacker - There is always something that begins scraping - you don't have to suffer through it - adjustments can be made, especially to a backpack. Thank you Yuka for sharing your adventures with us - TASMANIA!!! :)

Great video as always! That looks like an amazing hike. Thank you for taking us along on your adventure. 🏕

Wow that was a great video Yuka! You really are an adventurer going all the way to Tasmania to do something on your list. It looks so peaceful and relaxing there and you didn't do anything in wild boar mode! Thanks for sharing your adventure.

I really enjoy yuka's bike videos, but I LOVE this backpacking ones. Thank you Yuka :)

Such an epic hike. I've been there and it's wonderful. I hope you cleared your mind ☺

This is a beautiful video!

GO YUKA!!! Cheering for you!

Good luck on your journey

Great vid Yuka ! 😎

Such an amazing video, amazing scenery! Makes me want to go - right now! Thanks for taking us along. And then the best ending ever: "I put a napkin on it." - OMG 😂

So good to see you taking care of yourself Yuka and taking care of your mental health. Finding some peace in a peaceful place. I hope to see you come back full time/full speed to mountain biking, but if you don't it's okay. If you are happy, I'm happy for you.

Thank you for sharing.

Looked like a good time! I think that voice inside us that we like to battle with to get through something is what keeps people like us doing the sports we love.

You are such an awesome person Yuka. Ty for sharing.

Leave it to Yuka to make me, a "hiking is boring" person, want to go to the other side of the planet to hike for 7 days. Thank you for sharing, awesome trip!

Yuka great video, next should be 3Capes S/E Tasmania. 48 klms senstational coastal scenery. Only problem no tenting, however plenty of space, accommodation very good. Plenty of videos on KZfaq. Thankyou.😊

Congratulations, one more item checked on your bucket list. Most importantly, you are staying true to yourself❣️ Great Job🥰

What a beautiful adventure

Thank you for sharing your adventure. I've noticed that hiking really makes me appreciate my mountain bike :). My best/worst hiking trip was a day trip hiking Castle mountain. I thought mountain biking would prepare me for hiking, but it did not.

That "Oh my God" from Eric at the end said it all 🤣.

This was the first hiking video I've ever watched. Great edit! I enjoyed it.

Enjoy tasmania. You are always welcome

I've only been to NZ, and hiking there is nice. You don't have to worry about bears or mountain lions or other big animals that can mess you up, so you could hike by yourself unlike here in Canada.

Just a great video! Made me 😂 made me 🥹 whatever you feel like making a video about, I’ll watch! 👍😄 Thanks!

Loved this. Putting it on my trekking buvket list

Great video!! The scenery looks amazing!!

god bless ! you are amazing!

Hope u enjoy it

Awesome video👍👍👍 kep it up yuka😀

I did a wonderful 3 day hike in Washington, USA along a beach from Rialto Beach to Lake Ozette. It was truly spectacular and beautiful, but you must have a tide-table with you and be careful not to camp where the tide will come in. Sometimes you must rest on a hill because the tide comes in so there is nowhere to hike. The things I saw and the pictures I took were spectacular. I highly recommend you do it. You are completely cut off from the world for 3 days and there is no official places to camp. You are truly out in the wild and it is not maintained with stairs, toilets, rest huts. It's just nature. You will rarely see people. The sunsets over the water are amazing.

Congrats! I did the Overland Track 37 years ago, it's a real adventure and physical and logistical challenge. Beautiful part of the world. The huts and facilities look much improved now.

I was there in Jan 2022 and made it to Marion’s lookout. It’s an amazing view.

greatly admire Yuka

thanks for coming to tassie!

you would have passed the scout hut on your first day of travels, i have been going there since i was 6 months old, cradle is an amazing place

What an amazing journey. I love that your mic dead cat looks like one of the dust bunnies from My Neighbor Totoro making the trek with you.

君の人生の歩き方は僕らにとって良い刺激になっていて感謝です。 今回もいろいろ見せてくれてありがとうございます。 観ていて、ゆかちゃんが満足げな顔になったから良かったと思う。 ゆかちゃんがいろんな所へ行き感じて考えることを共有してくれるのは僕らにとって楽しい。 病気と怪我に気をつけて、エリックと幸せにね。
