Good on you for turning back while you still had fun 😌 and that you've taken that rest day after the night at the cabin, that looked so nasty. love the video, your shots are amazing as always. Honestly it's so good it could do without the drone. I'm often conflicted when it comes to using them since it's very loud and disruptive to wildlife and I'm glad many national parks are starting to ban them but often I can't deny that they elevate a video. You put up the camera so well, I didn't even miss it though. Love your narration as well :) I'm excited to see where you take us next!

Thanks again for the comment and happy hiking!

Wow Lyubo, the view at 0:33 with the beach and the low sun and with you looking into the ocean is just amazing. As a Norwegian I'm kind of used to great views and beautiful landscape however seeing it in videos is always so cool. Fantastic production quality.

I had used ND filters in the past but the ones I had were pretty bad (VNDs from K&F concept) and they added too much color shift to the image, that I decided not to use them... what has been your experience with NDs so far? And cheers to Chris @gratefulhike :)

A wonderful video and trip. I've been thinking of hiking in Lofoten, and this makes me definitely want to do it. I was wondering, though, what food do you use for cold soaking?

Well, regarding cooking, I am not very picky, so I can usually eat similar things most of the days, I would usually have oats with nuts, dried fruits, sugar, protein powder; then for snacks I would have a variety of bars, nuts and raisins, cranberries; and then for dinners it would usually be either couscous or noodles with TVP, peanuts, coconut flakes, and some kind of sause can add a lot to the taste. Best of luck on your future hiking trips!

Very nice video! I went to Lofoten last summer, and had a quite similar experience as you - the rainy and stormy weather made me decide to cut the trail short. Also, it was more technical than I expected, and my knees was struggling to keep up. I have also seen you video on GR20. How would you say the two trails compare? :) 🗻

@luboyanev

Жыл бұрын

Thank you! Yes actually most of the people I met that were dong the same route, due to weather had also made changes to their trip, cutting it shorter or skipping sections. And comparing it to the GR20, I had perfect weather for the entire trip on Corsica (maybe I was lucky, as I have seen other people experiencing tons of rain). I would say the trail on GR20 was also pretty rugged and rocky, but at least it wasn't wet and boggy. On Corsica I also had some problems with my knees because most of the days I was covering two stages in one day and from all the hard surface my knees were starting to hurt towards the end of the day. But overall I had more pleasant experience on Corsica, and great views there too... Happy hiking
