Alone in the Wild: Conquering the West Highland Way Solo! 

Scotland dishing out week after week of mad views! Stay tuned for next week where I will be reunited with Iz. Hope you all enjoy, and don’t forget to get your Surfshark deal here: surfshark.deals/transit

Fantastic video Tom, we don't underestimate the effort you put into the camera shots, constantly getting the drone up or setting up a camera for a walk past shot. This has been a massively engaging series and I can't wait to see how you meet some of the challenges later on 🙂

You should get sponsored for charity for this and get do equipment review tents,jackets .Massive respect for the distance....Decathlon would be great sponsor.👌Loving insight of hiker/biking accessibility,true wilderness of Scotland

Honestly, I can’t imagine how amazing it must feel to be in the middle of those mountains. I drove through this summer and was stunned with their beauty so to be right up there with them, WOW! The first time I went to Scotland was as a pillion passenger and every turn we made, the hairs on the back of my neck stood up and I was almost crying I was so overwhelmed with its beauty. Thank you for sharing this with us.

It'll be great to see Iz again. I have to say, filming and editing this whilst undertaking a massive hike is impressive, love these videos ❤👍 Scotland really is a beautiful country 😍

Well done Tom! it has been quite an undertaking for you but you must have a great sense of achievement. I cannot believe it has been 5 weeks. Thank you for taking us along. Hi Iz 💕

I climbed Ben Nevis in October and now I am heading to Nepal in September for a month and doing Langtang Trek and more. 🇮🇪🇳🇵🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Big thanks for carrying the extra weight so we can witness your journey....smashing it!!

This is better than watching travel programmes on TV. Glad to see you got some better weather at last! Great effort and wonderful scenery on the West Highland Way. Must seem very strange being back in civilisation 😮 I know where I'd prefer to be🙂

Thanks for documenting your pilgrimage it must have been nice to meeting up with Iz. Stay strong keep pushing.

Very nice to meet you today near Keswick, at the foot of Lonscale Fell. Amazed at what you have done already and where you are intending to go. We achieved our goals today - wishing you every success with yours :-) Liane and Mark

I’m doing this trail the week after next and I could not be more excited. Love this vid!!

That arrival, 'I'm so broken,' brought the biggest smile. The rest will be easy ☺. So very well done. Thank you.

Love watching you walk through Scotland. Well done.

This is really a neat adventure you have taken on. We are all traveling with you enjoying the scenery. You are getting all the exercise while we eat and watch. :)

Impressed at your 12hour walk into Glasgow. Chapeau. Cafe Mocha is top drawer!

Great job Tom keep on tracking enjoy your time with your Lady 👍👍

What a stunning part of the Scotland, so glad you enjoyed this leg of the walk, well done to you 😊

That was tremendous Tom. Such incredible landscapes and your drone shots were out of this world. Nice to see Balmaha make an appearance too as we're staying at The Oak Tree Inn next month en route to Iona. Looking forward to seeing Iz on next week's video. You must have loved meeting up with her, a great pick me up for you 😊

Love your enthusiasm for nature

Sunday evening and it’s Toms time amazing video again. So glad you made it safe and sound to Glasgow hope you and Izzy have a couple of great relaxing days together stay safe looking forward to the next one thanks 👍🏻🇮🇪☘️

Good afternoon Tom can’t believe you just finished the West Highlands Way your looking great and having great adventures glad your meeting up with Izzy and getting proper boots stay safe see ya soon 😘🌸🌺🌿

Yay! I am eating porridge for tea watching this … good shout! Always a good time for porridge!😄

I am a relative newcomer to your channel as I have become so interested in van life but I am absolutely loving this Going Solo series. I can't believe I've got to wait another week now to see how your journey carries on. Keep going. You are an inspiration 👍

Hi Tom. Another great vid mate. Loving the scenery as you get on with your walk. . Hope your keeping well. Take care.

Really enjoyed your video I think you definitely look so happy and healthier walking in the Highlands. It's a beautiful part of the world. Hope the weather keeps up and the rain stays away. Looking forward to your meeting up with Izzie miss seeing her 👍💚

Keep it going Tom….love the videos 👏👏

Well done Tom! Loving your videos😊

Well done Tom - you're such an inspiration and you've shared some amazing places with us in the last month, that most of us will never get to see for ourselves!

Excellent video Tom, loving this series. Good luck with the rest of your trip👍

Excellent enjoyed that hard enough hiking nevermind all the filming and editing! Your an inspiration man,looking forward to the next video. Peace!

Heard the Cornish twang a few times in this vlog Tom 👍😃. Proper job. Fantastic series & kudos to you.

Got to say I really enjoy your vlogs ....fantastic young people you are so brave and daring. Tom has guts walking the length of the uk loved your Himalayan adventure ...my farther walked to the Everest base camp when he retired in the early 90 s ..very different from your experience...... he also walked the wainwright way a few times he’s now 87 so no longer able to ...he still walks in Derbyshire occasionally.......you have years to enjoy your exploring keep on enjoying whatever you do ..Lynne

Having gotten to 3/4 way through the Vlog I was so surprised (and happy TBH) that you'd finally got a day without rain, and then..🌧Fantastic commentary all along Tom and so happy to feel you've overcome lots of the difficulties you experienced in the early part of your epic stroll. Few days RnR and Isabel there with you will prep you for the next anxiously awaited episode of your UK 'Camino'. (Never Stop Walking.!).🤗.🚶‍♂👏👏🚐☘ p.s. Scotland's beautiful..

Really enjoying this series, well done so far Tom!

It's good to see you happy, Tom 👍 ... what a campsite! I see what you mean about the Glen Coe road 😮I'd never noticed the road before! As ever... Epic photography, Tom 👏👏👏 "He lives on the top floor!" 😢😂

One of your better vids Tom. Looking forward to foolowing the rest of your long journey

There is something so wild in seeing someone you don't know but still feel connected to because of yt walk the same roads and paths I did last year, sleeping in the same bothy I've stayed .Many of the thoughts you have , have been mine own while I walked through the Highlands and I supposed are quite universally shared by all the other long trails hikers... It's like a big fan. A reminder for me that nature is still the main protagonist, we all pass through it , we all walked those miles , but those mountains are still there and have seen thousands of People every year. Thank you for the video, it was so great to see the landscape in summer, I've walked it October and I was used to a pretty rigged orange countryside, it's nice to see it so green . You did great Tom, I can believe how fast you did it. It took me almost twice as long. Well done. Enjoy the next bit 😊😊

I felt those stairs for you at the end - ouch! well done Tom x

Tom you really are doing a great job with the vlogs. Hope your feet are much better now.

Dank voor de prachtige beelden. Ik wens je nog veel succes op deze tocht.

So loving your hike thru Scotland Tom. Definitely among the most enjoyable vids I've watched. Up there with Dixie's Homemade Wanderlust channel. That 30 miles day is hugely impressive. I'm tempted to forgo the mountain bike and do some walking again.Thank you.

Yay you made it Tom to Glasgow and thanks for taking us along as Scotland is really beautiful. You’re a very brave soldier plodding through muck and rivers over hills snd valleys. Now you deserve a good rest and do great you and Izzy are reunited 😊

Love watching your progress. Totally inspiring and makes me want to get out there myself. Well done so far. Keep going!

Happy Sunday Love your caption of journey to Scotland adventure

Tom, thank you so much for sharing your journey. You have taken me to some of my favourite places in this video. Can’t wait until the next one. You’re doing so well and are inspirational 😊

Loving this series bud. Bless you. Strange you’re not being with Izzy but you’re meeting up soon aren’t you?! Keep it up my mate and fight through the blisters! You’re doing absolutely amazingly and we’re all rooting for you!!!! 💙🤘🙏🤜🤛

Great video Tom.... seeing the west Highland way from top back to Glasgow was cool.... Nice cliff hanger at the end to meet Iz off train lol.... roll on next week!!

Good effort Tom. 👏👏

Your a legend keep going . And overcoming beautiful walk .

Loved your video along The West-highland Way. So much nicer than all the previous boggy walks. Delighted to see you relaxing and enjoying the odd treat. Enjoy your stay in Glasgow. Can’t believe that you still have your walking staff - amazing.

Brilliant vlog again.. I am sure it takes so much of your time and effort to make these along with the stamina and mojo to do this hike and all thst goes with hiking.. so enjoying this series.. take care and look forward to nxt week xx

Good to see enjoying the better weather, and how it can elevates the spirits and heals all the muscles again... Well done Tom.... I cant wait to see Iz again.... Best wishes to you both..!!

Another great one; looking forward to the next!

WOW shock to the system transition into the City of Glasgow, great effort thus far and 1/3 of the way done.. top man

Irn Bru and square sausage: the pinnacle of Scottish culinary excellence. It's all downhill for your tastebuds from there, mate! 😂

Good effort Tom Am glad you love Gods country so much🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿😎👌🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👏👏👏

Hi Tom, your doing great 👍 Thank you for your kind words regarding my homeland. Some super shots of beautiful scenery and your smile is bigger than ever you seem if you’re in your element. I hope you’re going to do a book about your and Iz’s travels .😊

Watching your videos is seriously the highlight of my week!!! You’re just so Inspiring!! Hope your meet up With Iz and friends was good. Well done - your hard work walking and filming is so appreciated! I want to go back to Scotland!!!

Hey Tom, loving the videos. You have chosen a really nice route so far and am looking forward to seeing more of your adventures. If you need somewhere to stay in the Scottish Borders we have a small holding with plenty of space to pitch a tent. Take it easy and good travels🙂

Enjoy watching your videos & I'm looking forward to future episodes as you head south. Keep up the good work 👏

What an achievement! I’ve just loved watching this series of videos and wish you all the best for continuing your walk. Take care and enjoy your meet up with Izzie.

Raising a pint of the big T to the big T. Great videos, cheers

Wow, stunning footage. I’m partly sad you’ve reached Glasgow as the landscape will change dramatically but looking forward to seeing the rest of your walk and areas I’ve never been.

Fabulous adventure

Hi Tom, What an amazing walk along the West Highland Way. I’m glad you got some better weather and found places to camp. Really appreciate the way you manage to film and edit on the move. It’s really impressive. Take care. Nick

Your doing wonders for Scottish tourism Tom. Your doing great. 👍😊🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

You are definitely getting there Well done 👍 again 🙌

You're doing great. Really enjoying the videos, can't be easy filming as well. Great job !

Very impressive Tom! 12 hour day walking 🙃🙉 unbelievable, you certainly can't feel guilty about your slight de-tour when you have crammed all that in, let alone a climb up Ben Nevis too 🤪 keep it up!

Awesome video! Loch Lomond has always been a favorite song of mine. I love even more how this week's video ended, can wait to see you both together again

Brilliant video Tom!

Hey Tom, anther cracking video, we are enjoying this series so much. Can't wait to see your time walking with Izzy now. Happy and safe walking wherever you are now. K & N

Great story telling.

Love watching your and Izzy’s adventures. Randomly stumbled across your you tube channel a few years ago and thought no way it’s Tom! Been hooked ever since. You are amazing content creators and really have a way of making the viewer connect and feel they are there with you. Whilst climbing a flipping mountain! Amazing. Sending much love Jen C from Deerpark!

Glen Coe, I love that place, so atmospheric. Have you noticed the lack of birds there? You are doing so well

Another great update. Lovely to see you still in good spirits. Still have to remember you are filming and editing whilst doing this enormous feat. Safe travels Tom. Will be great to see Issy again next time.

Another brilliant vlog. Well done

Thanks Tom Brilliant

So wonderful. Really love following your adventures 😎

my girlfriend and I love your videos and scottland is now even bigger and underlineded on our list

Just came across your channel and really enjoyed this video. Great work 😊

You do such a good job with your filming. I don’t know how you do it. Xx

Well done Tom 🙏 Loving watching this vlog..,, Probably my favourite out of the many you guys have done over the years ..such an amazing thing to do.. Just you and a tent .. definitely keeping me entertained during a recovery from an accident .. Started off watching in hospital 3 weeks ago ,now at home and looking forward to your vlogs keep it up tom ..stay safe and enjoy.amazing👍🏻

Well done again Tom, fab video again this week. Quite a shock coming into the city, seclusion of the countryside so much nicer! Can’t believe your mate didn’t carry your rucksack up those stairs! Great videos, looking forward to next week.

Tom, from across a massive pond in Maryland, USA so fantastic to watch your determination and information sharing of the places you are hiking. You are looking great despite the blistering of feet that come with it. Soon Isabelle will be joining, which will be so wonderful for you. Both of you have hiked some fantastic and challenging mountains and travels. Cheers.

Oh wow that brings back memories of 2021 and doing that trail. I loved it. Thanks for filming it and bringing back those memories. Wish you all the best on the rest of your adventure.

Aww was expecting some big romantic violins at the end there. Maybe next week? Brilliant blog as ever Tom.

Hello Tom, really enjoying the series. Based on timings assume you have not made it to Cornwall yet, would recommend walking on the coast path on the south side of Cornwall, go through Goran Haven, Mevagissey, and Charlestown etc, enjoy

Great adventure!

Interested in the pilgrimage angle. I read Guy Staggs ‘The Crossway’ recently. And his journey wasn’t a religious one. But more concerned with mindfulness and a kind of mental health re grounding. Really enjoyed it, would highly recommend if you haven’t already read it. Inspiring journey your on

Really enjoying your videos Tom. You have achieved so much. Look forward to seeing Izzie next week. Enjoy your break.

Another fantastic episode. Very interesting thoughts on pilgramage. That road was so busy! Looking forward to the next installment..❤

Great footage as always, enjoy your break as many are enjoying your vids.

Great update Tom as always, Love the ending where we see you smile seeing your mate and your lovely Izzy. Hope the new shoes make an appearance soon … think you need a treat for those poor feet (ooh I’m a poet now lol)

Really enjoying the series Tom!!! It’s beautiful so thanks for sharing it with us.

Loving your videos Tom and the mammoth walk you are doing...I'm just addicted and wait for your video each week.

Well done Tom on this amazing journey you have done , the whole series has been so so good you should be very proud of yourself & all the hard work has most definitely paid off 💪💪💪

Another great vlog…. 30 miler in a day great going 👍

Another Epic episode Tom, well done ! ..really looking forward to seeing which route South you pick next too. Also it will be really nice to see Izzy
