The CAPE WRATH TRAIL - thru-hike, part 1 

Thanks Tony 😁 To be honest, the landscape is such that the photography would be great even if blindfolded!! 😍 It got even better 😀

Hey! You're a fellow Cape Wrath Trail completist 😃 Congratulatons! I agree, it's the most awesome hike in the UK and probably up there amongst the rest of the world too. There were certainly plenty of overseas hikers amongst us. We met a French girl who was obsessively hiking all of the different variations she had missed on her first time. I'm currently editing part 3, and a bit obsessed myself, it gets under your skin, doesn't it? Did you end up thinking you were still on the trail when you got back home in your own bed? 😂🤗

@@FIVE-FOOTLyth Yes, I certainly did. You could say my dreams were somewhat watery. 🤣

Thanks Mick 😃 It gets better…! 👍

Thanks Simon, and well put. I agree it’s the best scenery, I was enchanted. The wildness is staggering, exceeded my expectations. We were pretty lucky with the weather for the most part. All the best! Sue 🤗

Thank you! The most beautiful in the UK ❤️

Thanks Tracey 😊 we said exactly the same thing! It’s so special, if the weather holds good it’s just sensational. I can understand how people become so hooked on it. Hope you have a great trip when you go back 😁 Sue

Thanks Roger! It was certainly tough, but so very beautiful, exceeding all my hopes. The ticks are a bit scary… we’re taking doxycycline for 3 weeks, which isn’t pleasant but better than Lyme I guess. All worth it though 😃

Ciao Ian! Buono vacanze! CWT was fantastic, looking forward to catching up 🤗 Meantime, I hope the sun is shining on you 😎 cin cin 🍺

Hey Mark, really pleased you’re following us, I did think of you whilst editing this. Graham did last out but his feet looked a bit raw at one point… as for the ticks, we’re on antibiotics right now to combat Lyme Disease! Never seen so many of the blighters 😱 It’s a stunning, stunning hike, one of the best I’ve ever done. As gnarly as you can get 😉 Peace! Sue

@@FIVE-FOOTLyth I look forward to this one Sue. Grahams feet sound like a big irritation - I imagine he was a trooper though. Ah, Lyme disease. I hope you guys aren't ill. Good to hear of the gnarly way.

@@WyeExplorer all good thanks Mark, just a tick precaution! My friend caught Lyme after doing the CWT, didn’t get the antibiotic it time so just being cautious. It can be nasty.. all the best. Sue

@@FIVE-FOOTLyth Better safe then sorry then Sue. Lyme disease sounds like it can get into your bones - yeah unpleasant.

Thank Matt 😊 Looking at your adventures I wouldn’t blame you if there was a wry smile on your face when you see the rain in the UK 😉 but it’s a wonderful hike! The Glenfinnan monument commemorates the Jacobite rising when Charles Edward Stewart (‘Bonnie Prince Charlie’) raised his standard on the shores of Loch Shiel. Historic Scotland! 😃 I hope you’re having the time of your life out there. ATB - Sue
