This is an ambient film without dialog.

The Pyrénées is my favorite mountain range I have to say, the isolation, the locals, the dead-end valleys, the two very different sides, the storms in late summer, the wild life, the izards... I hiked Ordesa in the 90s as a young man, hope to return with my kid one day. THANK YOU, THANK YOU for these amazing shots and rendering so well this majestic of the landscape in its most natural sense. You have the resilience, the sensibility: the talent.

Everything about this video is stunning. First the scenery. Living in the US, I had no idea the Pyrenees were so beautiful. The natural beauty of the mountains, valleys, rivers, and streams are spectacular. Next is the cinematography, again stunning! the wide angle vistas, the framing, the time-lapse shots, the drone photography, the astrophotography...everything about this film looks like it's a big budget movie with a famous DP. And last I'll say the vibe for lack of a better term. I love the absence of VO or commentary, the natural sounds, the minimalist music. This allows the viewer to really experience the natural beauty of the landscapes and appreciate the scale. I'm impressed that Harmen is both an experienced long haul solo hiker with the skills to camp in fairly extreme places, walk really long distances each day, AND take the time to frame up these shots and capture such excellent footage. Well done, bravo!

There are no unnecessary conversations in all your videos, there is no effort to reveal a feature of you, you just leave us alone with magnificent views. I relax while watching videos. The selected music is magnificent. Most importantly, the videos you took during this solo walk are of very high quality. There are no frames in motion. It is really difficult and laborious to put the camera at a point, go for meters, turn around and get the camera again and do it over and over. I heartily congratulate you....

Just happened upon this video and was honestly blown away by how moving and soulful of a cinematic masterpiece this video truly was. The soundtrack, the shots, the audio production - it all combines seamlessly in a way that makes the viewer feel completely immersed, like they're right there on the trail with you. My girlfriend and I had the pleasure of spending a week hiking throughout Ordesa and the neighboring valleys this past summer and this video brought all those wonderful memories flooding back - I was sat here in my living room smiling like a blissful idiot anytime I recognized a spot I'd been - so thank you for bringing me back to such happy times. This video was a joy to watch.

Wonderful! Being a 'local', I know and have hiked all the places you show. I have fond memories of Ordesa and the amazing Faja de las Flores... I am full of admiration for your ability to shoot such beautiful - peaceful and poetic - images on your own. To put it short, that was perfect. The only aspect that wasn't was the weather. You were not very lucky, last Summer was dreadful. But that was beyond your command, unfortunately.

@@HarmenHoek Yes, indeed, great trip! As a local, I would just want to add that there were a few steps where I would recommend a little bit more precaution (the chimneys of the North Face of Monte Perdido can have bad steps, maybe better to rappel them with a 40 m rope and a helmet! and crampons on the glacier section!) I don't want to sound bothering, I am glad you enjoyed (it's more of a recommendation for future interested people in the route). Cheers!

Sound like you know something about shooting timelapses. (; The battery is the biggest problem, I bring 9 batteries these days, and charge them whenever I can. One night timelapse = 1 battery ... Thank you for the comment!

The very best documentary I ever saw since " I don't remember" about Pyrenees and just hiking without needing words to show the beauty and the trip. Thank's a lot . I remember been caught in a storm in the pyrenees, noisy and a bit scary ! Excellent filming and photography and wonderful sunrises. Thank's again .

I thank you for gracing us with such art, Harmen. This particular video inspired me to embark on an almost similar route solo this July. I followed your route for the first 3.5 days but instead of crossing back into Spain at Col du Mulets I carried on to Refuge Wallon, passing an amazing lake on the way where people were swimming and fishing. The following day (day 5) I crossed into Spain at Port du Marcadau, joining the GR11 and followed it down to Baños de Panticosa where I chilled for a couple hours before heading up to Lac de Brazato to spend the night. Day 6 saw me follow the route to Refuge Bujaruelo where I chilled with fellow hikers before finding a more secluded spot to set up camp. The final day was the not so exciting journey back to Torla which you avoided. My camera skills aren’t a touch on yours but at least I can rewatch this video time and time again to remind myself of the scenery we’ve both been so lucky to experience. Thanks again! Nathan

The quality of your videos is great, some real top end work here... Amazing. As an avid french hiker, I cannot help but recommend some of my favorite areas to you. I've explored all of the Alps, not on long hikes, but I can tell you that you would be a happy man in place like the Queyras mountains (no glaciers, but truly unspoiled by ski resorts), my favorite area. It just feels genuine and charming. Nearby are also two of the most beautiful corners of the Alps : the Vallée de la Clarée, North of Briançon, with amazing alpine lakes and a stunning larch forest that turns completely orange in October, and the Ecrins National Park, a much bigger area with the most beautiful glaciers in the french alps, and in my opinion the most stunning display of alpine flowers in July. Some areas are more popular, like around La Grave or La Chappelle en Valgaudemar, but if you want a place forgotten by time, start at Le Desert en Valjouffrey and you'll be amazed.

Beautiful, your editing is amazing as your images. I love that part of the Pyrenees and I went there many times. But I never dared to swim in the lake of Tuquerouye, which is also known as "the frozen lake" as it is indeed frozen more than half of the year. Thank you for sharing your hike and your great effort to bring it all together in such professional video work.
@HarmenHoek

Thanks! I wouldn't call it swimming, but more dipping. ('; It was really cold! But I found out afterwards it's officially not allowed to swim in the lakes in the park ...

So sweet; thanks so much! I've always been curious about the Pyrenees. Very much reminds me of my home -- Colorado, USA -- with diversity of geology, rocky creeks, pines, alpenglow, waterfalls, weather. We don't have cowbells, though, and few huts, as we call them. I come from an ancient techno time -- my mountain days in the 1970s and 80s. No mini video cams, iPhones, editing, etc. I wish I had such a record of my months, or maybe years, combined, of mountain travel. Ah, well, it's beyond exceptional to see your work. It's hugely appreciated. (Oh, Big Agnes, from Steamboat Springs, Colo! I have same one...my fourth tent over the years. Cheers, and be well.)
