Day 252: Loch Aline to Auliston – Wildcat in Morvern
As I make my way beside the Sound of Mull a car pulls up revealing a friendly bearded face “Don’t see many backpackers here, stop in at the next house over the hill and I’ll give you a cup of tea” A few minutes later […]
Day 251: Leacraithnaich Bothy to Loch Aline

Day 250: Rubha a’ Chaiginn to Leacraithnaich Bothy – through Glensanda Quarry

Today I plan to conclude the trilogy of walking to the summit of the highest mountains of England, Wales and Scotland as a loop from the sea in a single day. I leave the kebab strewn streets of Fort William at 5am. My head torch […]
