Raasay is high on my list of Scottish islands to visit but behind Coll.
I head good thinks about it too
Beautiful views especially the sunset (sunrise?) ones. I enjoyed Applecross and at least this part is easier albeit mostly on the road. I went down to the beach at Sand, but I seem to remember there was some sort of military base beside it?
It was a shame about the pub in Applecross, I rate it as the most unfriendly pub I’ve encountered on my coast walk. A long list of “dos and don’t” on the wall outside should have been a warning but then told you cannot come in unless you book online first (how … there is no phone signal) then when I asked to use their Wifi to do that I was told I can’t because they were “fully booked”. When I pointed to the mostly empty tables outside and asked if those were all booked I was told “we’re short staffed”. I got the impression a “locals only” place.
That bothy looks quite luxurious. I wasn’t staying there and might have had a nose inside if it was empty but there was already a group staying in there and more camping on the grass outside so I didn’t want to intrude by asking if I could look around.
I remember locking my folding bike to the sign at the car park at Sand. When I came back for it later I couldn’t find the key to the lock anywhere in my pockets or bag. After a few minutes of panic I I noticed I had left the key in the lock when I left it there several hours earlier! Luckily people are honest around there.
The pastel photos are sunset. Yes, there is a military base at Sands, I was a bit desperate as it was so late and I was a way outside the perimeter fence so I thought it would be ok. Yeah, Applecross has a captive audience from people on the North Coast 500 coming over the pass. I’m not surprised about your bike story.
