Was this a bad idea? | Mountains of Gran Canaria | Pico de las Nieves (Hiking vlog)

It's time to explore the mountains of Gran Canaria that are in the centre of the island, even though the highest peaks are hidden in the clouds. Tommy would rather go somewhere warm, but Peter the weatherman seems to be in the mood for some fog. So, let's go 🙄

00:00 Intro
00:29 Driving to the mountains (San Bartolome de Tirajana)
02:57 Hiking to Pico de las Nieves (cold, foggy, windy)
07:30 Pico de las Nieves (we reached the peak)
09:51 Viewpoint (Mirador Presa de Los Hornos)
11:12 Hiking to Morro de la Cruz Grande (warm, sunshine)
14:16 Morro de la Cruz Grande (reaching the peak, amazing views)

He is a guy from the UK who makes videos about his hiking adventures. His videos are very different from ours - there is no music or anything; it's just him talking and hiking, quite slow-paced and raw. But you can get a feel for a place that way. In the video, he started on the islands of Lanzarote and Fuerteventura (which are the driest and, to be honest, not that interesting), and then he went to Gran Canaria (around 26.00), where he hiked up the same long, vast valley where we were staying, and then farther into the mountains. He got luckier with the weather and could even see the island of Tenerife from the top of Gran Canaria. But he also encountered fog and cold, so it was nice seeing him experience that as well. He then continued to Tenerife and finished in the area around Mount Teide, where we were last year. He is a backpacker, which means he hiked for more days and also slept in a tent on his hike.

I think that is awesome that you can walk in the clouds. It is like being in the sky. Two angels walking in the heaven.

Oh guys, we absolutely admire your tenacious motivation to achieve your hiking goals despite adverse conditions. Darren is so like you Tommy where his body temperature has a marked effect on his mood. It was such a gift though for you to be able to end the day on breathtaking scenery and that gorgeous sunset...❤

[FranWhorton-ofql]

It's like the birds were putting on a concert for just you and Tommy!! And Tommy was right about the views being so stunning....just magical. The cloud covered mountain hike was downright scary, though, but glad you were able to complete it.

Hello Peter and Tommy ! Thank you for these gorgeous walks. The landscape is stunning. Fortunately the second was warmer than the first, you are courageous to make it in such a cold weather without warm clothes...I wish you plenty of good time on your holidays, best regards from Paris to you both ❤

[chrisbray]

Hello guys .You have to make the most of the weather wherever you go, but you are often rewarded by a sunset . When we lived in Cyprus the sunsets were always the best part of the day .

[empret]

Absolutely stunning views, perfectly edited 👌 and the sound of nature make me feel I'm with you there 😊

[FreewillUSA]

Awesome hikes! I would have opted for long pants on the cloudy morning. 😉

[daveydoo]

Simply beautiful, words cannot describe the feeling you have on top of the mountains looking down over the valley, the sights sounds and smell of nature..

[michaeltucker]

I like having a “ diversed “ area to explore…makes your experience more memorable 😊 Tommy needs more body fat to adjust to the diverse conditions, he is too skinny❤ thanks for sharing..loved the sunset at the end🎉

[henkvanaken]

Hi guys, I love watching your travel stories and listening to your commends, you're an amazing couple, the Gran Canaria breathtaking scenery is amazing, thank you, keep on filming and publishing your videos, thank you both. ❤

[robertobaldessari]

Simply fantastic! We heard in the background, musically speaking, the 4 seasons of Vivaldi, you didn't miss anything: clouds, rain but above all wind, a lot of wind, only a little snow was missing. We titled this beautiful video "Gone with the Wind" 😎

Next time come between the months of September and may is better weather not that cold in the mountains of Tejeda 😙

[antoinebarras]

What a wonderful and beautiful place. Very unique, even the plants are very different. Beautiful vistas even with the adverse weather. A really nice video. When Peter mentioned dinosaurs because of the landscape, I was thinking the same thing. So unusual. Thanks for taking me along. You guys take care. See you soon. Tony

[skyliner]

Beautiful, thank you for taking me with you.

[allenberryhill]

What a wonderful adventure. I’m glad you shared it with us. Thank you.

[lestatthaddee]

The first part of the hike was definitely better to be experienced on a screen... and preferably not in tiny tight shorts !

[jimcomiskey]

🇲🇽👋 Hola! Still it was an impressive achievement. Even if it was cold and wet and windy and there was no view! But we are scared of heights. so we have to close our eyes when you are stumbling at the edge😫. We love Tommy and Peter anyway 😂.❤❤❤

The background at 19:00 is beautiful and looks like a painting,

[andrewaway]

Love you guys. Would you consider going up the mountain tomorrow. Amazing views. Just find a place to go swimming. We are preparing to view the total solar eclipse on Monday.
Thanks guys. ❤❤
