Not the same but there are off-road mobility scooters that you can take up a decent trail into the Malvern hills. Looking at doing it with my mother in law. Worth looking into if that's your sort of thing

@@MindSurf248 Thanks. I'll look into that. 😊

We stayed on Skye a few weeks ago. I was in awe of this stunning mountain range. I'm definitely not experienced enough to even contemplate doing this climb. Think I'll stick to Ingleborough 😂 The views are spectacular. Thank you for sharing the amazing experience.

i just did Collie's Ledge this weekend. If i'd seen this video before the walk i'd never have agreed to do it! :) Awesome, terrifying and unforgettable. I'm def. not a climber. Shall stick to my sunday walks on the rounded Cairngorms me thinks!

Absolutely stunning, with so much crap on the tv it's brilliant to have this to watch after a hard day at work. Thank you so much for sharing this. Atb Brian.

I have done this the scree run down was fantastic back in 1978 but the view from the top will stay with me for ever

Great video Murray! In the days before walking poles I used to descend the An Stac screes carrying a rock in each hand. That way, if I fell over I didn't cut my hands as I was already gripping a comfortable rock.

I did sgurr alasdair way back in 78 amazing day

This is one of the best videos of the hills in Skye.

Beautiful mountains views are heavenly

Stunning and scary. Many thanks for the wonderful vicarious experience. I only ever saw the Cuillin Hills from the bottom, possibly at your starting point, but also of course as we toured the Isle of Skye in 1974!

Well done. Thanks for showing us!

A photo round every corner ,what a poetic way to describe the beauty of Scotland. Murray.you sure your not a mountain goat...the way u scramble over thoses rocks .lol..that was some seriously scary stuff in places.

As someone who is terrified of heights I couldnt keep myself from watching. Exceptional footage that makes me slightly sad I cant experience it for myself. Thank you, great work.

Superb video. Did have to link to the mountain bike video which was also rather good. Cheers Murray.

I was there in 2019. I was at the top and a jet flew in the valley and had no other option than to fly in our direction. A brutal sound for 5 seconds and a memory for a lifetime

Spent a week in the one on the right of 3 cottages seen at 19:18 into the video at the beginning of August. Got my wife, who is not a walker, up to Coire Lagan and sat there salivating about the thought of getting up the shute to Sgurr Alasdair and what I imagined would be amazing views. Now, just a couple of weeks later you’ve made my dream come true. 😃. Thanks Murray, for all the wonderful footage you bring to our screens.

This is some of the best Cuillin footage around. And your presentation skills and your scrambling skills are second to none. Brilliant!

Nicely done Murray. Made me happy and sad. The last time I was up there was with Martin Moran who tragically died in the Himalaya earlier this year. Keep up the good work mate.

Wow, what amazing photography/videography awesome

Astonishing video and superb drone footage!

Absolutely fantastic, looked a bit scary in places, but Wow! 😲

I’m blown away by this! I’d never ever manage these sort of climbs but my god it’s so fabulous watching you......the magic of Mother Nature and a good camera 😉

Murray - just love your videos. I climbed Sgurr Sgumain, Alasdair, Thearlach and Mhic Choinnich with my Dad (who passed away in 2012) in August 1976. I've never been back since. this brings back great memories.

Watched this again for the umpteenth time..... it's just a stunning uplifting video Murray it gets a very regular outings on my 50 inch TV in my bedroom 😊😊😊😊 As I keep saying your photography is stunningly beautiful and obviously editing too ......😊😊😊😊😊 Those scree slopes remind me of my adventures on the scree slopes of Cadair Idris my favourite Welsh mountain with the most stunning views over the Barmouth Estuary ...I think you'd love it too ..Highly recommended but Skye is obviously magnificent 😂😂😊😊😊. Thankyou 😊

I went up here with my Dad in the late 90s. There were clouds forming just out of arms reach on the top of the ridge. Dad did some scree running there back in the 70s, but it was all ankle snapping rocks when I got there. One of the most beautiful places on earth :)

Enchanting Murray, just enchanting. Brought back memories of my climbs there in the summer of '92 (wearing Derby tweed breeks and using W A Poucher's guidebook!). Never been so scared in my life. I went up over Sgurr Sgumain (a simple uphill slog) and on to Alasdair, the famed 'bad step' proving to be relatively straightforward. I recall it being so windless on the summit that I briefly had a butterfly for company, and didn't even need to shield the match lighting my celebratory pipe. Then down the ridge (v scary) to the top of the Stone Chute and straight on to the top of Sgurr Thearlaich (tough scramble). I'd planned on continuing the ridge north to Collie's Ledge, but my nerves had frankly had enough, so I dropped back down to the head of the Stone Chute and descended it to Coire Lagan. I still distinctly remember thinking to myself "Never, ever, try to come up this way!" Not being much of a rock climber myself, that day was probably my greatest achievement. Confession - I took one tiny stone from Alasdair's summit, and it sits proudly (and still magnetic!) on my mantelpiece to this day. Those shots you took of Alasdair and Thearlaich from Mhic Choinnich have given me a real thrill - "Was I really up there?" - for which I am truly grateful to you Murray. I can even forgive those execrable trousers... PS: Hope you've shaken off that nasty stuff you got from the tick bite earlier - are you OK now?

I’m sitting in My friends house in Skye and tomorrow I’m climbing Sgurr Alasdair the weather has been absolutely amazing and if you want to get in the mood for a climb this ticks all the boxes . Great Murray really enjoyed it.

Truely amazing and very unique place. This is one for the bucket list for sure. Another great video, thanks for your work.

Skye is a paradise on Earth....Those views of the Cuillin, Rhum, Eigg etc....Unbelievable!! Brilliant film Murray....Love it!!

Stunning footage of a stunning place. Your work and the effort you put into every film as well as the slog of the walk leaves me breathless. Fantastic for us who've done the Munros to look at your work and remember and relive the mountains without having to cart around all that camera gear ,not to mention all the work of setting up the shots. A big thank you. Andrew.

If I was to describe this video. It would be inspirational and breathtaking. As a young man this was on my bucket list. Now kids are up and I’m needed less and less. It’s time to dig out the walking and climbing gear loved the drone footage.
