Hello Paul. It's a very wide and beautiful hiking course. The dam is quite large. The mountain road seems to be steep and the stones are very slippery. The 360-degree view from the top is spectacular ! Thank you for wonderful sharing 👍

This is quite an amazing hiking adventure. The views are fantastic right away, the blue bells amazing in the foreground. I always enjoy when there are mountain streams running along a hiking trail - very cool. It was quite a climb up to the Ben Cruachan summit, incredible as the views open up along the way. 👍👍 Wonderful hiking journey, thanks for taking us along!

climbing until the top of the Ben Cruachan and Stop Daimh you'll find a breathtaking views around, great filming .. and really enjoy strolling around there with your video.
You truly select great music for this footage. Everything you desire to showcase about your climb is all here. Your breath might be a little rough as you climb up, but really express your passion for the hike along with your documentation and voice-over, haha...ouch Echo? It didn't ? as you approach the dam. OMG it is high up there. I have no idea how deep is this dam. The sounds of water is relaxing, as if it gives some space to rest. OMG, It getting steeper and steeper! Is that you expected? Please catch your breath, Paul. Now it sounds like scrambling over some rocks. I am very fortunate to see this stunning gorgeous view through your lens without muscle pain at 3361ft The clouds seems lying down below YOU. wow Awe-moments from here and there Breath taking! You brought back your heart for the mountains. Pretty Paul weather! Love, love and love it. Thank YOU very much for making my day. Ciao until next time. are you planning have premiere on regular schedule? xx

Hi Ms Kayak, I'm glad you enjoyed the video from my day out in the big hills of Scotland. I generally don't stop to rest much before doing the walk and talk so sound out of breath a bit at times. I'm not sure how deep the reservoir is but I wouldn't want to fall in deep end. It's pretty steep and to be expected. All part of the fun. On a clear that like the effort sure makes it all worth it. You can imagine what it was like for real as the GoPro is good but not the same as the naked eye. I have another video or 2 or 3 with more fabulous views from 3000+ feet coming. I am going to try to release one on premiere every Monday but I find it hard to keep up with editing, replying to comments and watching videos...oh and then have a life. I did think about quitting at one point but alas you don't get rid of me that easy. Thank you very much for coming along for the premiere after your oil change. I hope those ribs are better soon. Have a great week 🙂👍Paul

What a beautiful place to hike. Incredible views into the loch. The dam is huge! Totally not what I expected. Love how you checked for echos! Wow it’s ginormous. the Ben cruachan summit has incredible views, wow, so high up! Same with the drochaid Ghlas and Stob daimh summits, wow! You find such breathtaking places to adventure to.
