This is a video I made to go along with a tune I made using fl studio and a guitar , or its a tune to go with the video either way if you can manage to get through the shaky video well done.

At the time I made this video it was just to show some friends what is involved in doing a lap of the upper lake at Glendalough in county wicklow Ireland. Obviously I wassnt going to make them run the whole thing like I did here.

I ran out of battery at the end where the gravel trail is in the above picture but its a straight road back to the car park where I started at the lower lake 15/20 min walk from there probably.

Sort:  

the sign just before you get to the sleepers "beware of the bear" ahahaa, i didnt realise that was done :-)
I love this place but, im here nearly every second weekend rescuing people who slip and fall on this route :-)

Its a great starter route for everyone getting into hiking , i'd say it sees a lot of people every weekend , I always go weekdays early . How do people get get rescued from here , chopper?

Yea you are better off going early.
It depends on what the weather is like and if the heli can be tasked due to it being busy or not, if the heli cant make it we stretched the injured person out. Usually happens on the way down once they cross the river, its not an easy stretcher carry from there with all the boulders in the way :-) ive done it a few times.

Wow , I'd say that person in the stretcher feels like a right dope!
I'd throw myself in the river out of embaressment
