That's the one (couple of hundred metres below GP on the Young side)

I wouldn't have got it without the good clues.
Over to Europe...

That's right. Quite impressive.

Thanks Tyreless. I've not actually been there but have seen similar elsewhere in Iceland so googled crater lake iceland and it popped up at the top of the list.
This next one is the first nights camp site on a quite popular stroll in Europe.

Perhaps i should have said insanely popular epic trek
Mon 17 Jun, 2019 3:58 pm
Somewhere on the Camino de Santiago based on the clue, but having not done it I can't narrow it down any further
Wed 19 Jun, 2019 1:58 pm
Gotta keep this game moving so I'm guessing perhaps Albergue de Peregrinos Orreaga Roncasvalles.

Greg - since the photos on the web match this exactly - I reckon you can go next.
Thu 20 Jun, 2019 1:26 pm
Thanks Eggs, I was beginning to wonder if our wobbly was dead.
I'll have a look and post after lunch.

I thought I'd stick with a similar theme and make the next one part of a sanely popular walk, early day 1.
Great Britain.

South Downs Way - paragliding off the chalk cliffs? Somewhere near " the white cliffs of Dover" ?

Not dead but unexpectedly without access for a few days.
Thu 20 Jun, 2019 6:21 pm
A couple of km west of Minehead on the SWCP.

Oh dear me Monsieur Ribuck NON!
On this walk on clear day you can see an island out to sea that is very unfeminine. The town that you leave from to start this walk has a famous Knight buried there who has had his share of ups and downs over the years.
On a positive note tho it is good to see that wobbly is not dead- unlike the aforementioned Knight.

OK then Greg. The cliffs at St Bees, from where Wainwright's Coast To Coast walk starts, within sight of the Manly Island on a clear day. And that's my final bid
Thu 20 Jun, 2019 8:28 pm
Indeedy yes Mr ribuck it is.
You can see the Isle of Man when conditions permit and indeed this is the cliffs as you first walk up from the starting point at St Bees.
In the attached picture you can actually just make out the dude in the paraglider before we even left the beach.

Thanks, Greg. Here's another from Great Britain. It's an odd place for a bushwalk, don't you think?

The only thing I can think of is the Pilgrims causeway to Holy Island.
Greg
Fri 21 Jun, 2019 7:58 pm
Not Pilgrims' Causeway, nor any causeway, nor going to any island, Greg.
Water's getting deeper!

The Walk across Morecambe Bay
Sat 22 Jun, 2019 6:30 pm
You've got it, eggs. I thoroughly recommend this to anyone who's visiting the north of England.
A dozen or so cross bay walks are conducted each year, and you can find the program here:

Utter madness, I’ll prove it can’t be done. Tomorrow I’ll walk across Port Philip Bay. If you don’t hear back from me you’ll know I’m dead.

Back to Europe
Name the Glacier
Sun 23 Jun, 2019 9:35 am
Looks a lot like the view from the "top of europe" station.... Is it the Aletsch?

Sun 23 Jun, 2019 3:43 pm
Correct. Aletsch Glacier from Jungfraujoch
Sun 23 Jun, 2019 4:10 pm
Thanks. Europe again... Should be pretty straightforward

Very popular summer daywalk this. Many people shorten it with cable car ride.
Tue 25 Jun, 2019 11:10 am
Really quiet on the game now, huh.
Your "straightforward" clue suggests Lake Blanc
