I always hope a remote building marked on the map will prove to be some kind of shelter to get out of the wind. This doesn’t always prove to be the case.

  1. Stunningly beautiful photos as always. And I could watch hours of video like that! It’s like walking though that extraordinary terrain, without the obviously extraordinary effort. Glorious, and incredibly restful (I’m sorry to say). Thanks for taking such heroic efforts and bestowing them so generously on us feeble stay-at-homes.

      • Of course you can’t, (why I said sorry) I realise it must sound weird. I think it’s the rythymn of your walking – I can get the feeling of really being there moving through the landscape with all the pleasant sensations but without the physical struggle. It surprised me too but it’s really delightful. Much better than drone footage. More of the same, please! (though obviously not wishing such rough going for you too often).

  2. We got married on this particular stretch of coastline and have fallen in love with the area. We’ve been back up several times. Such a beautiful place. This and surrounding area. Nice to see that you’d also visited Skipness Castle. Hope you stopped for a bite at the seafood cabin.

    • What a wonderful area to get married, it must now be part of your soul. I did stop at the seafood cabin and delicious it was too!
