Ardnamurchan Point lighthouse to Broughty Ferry castle.
This took us two days just to get to Ft William:
1. North coast trail on Ardnamurchan via Ockle to Acharacle & Salen. Admire the volcanic Caldera; nothing else like it in the UK, I think.
2. Salen to Strontian, over to Polloch and Loch Shiel side to GlenFinnan, then we took the wee back road on the south side around Loch Eil around to Camusnagaul to get the wee boat across to Ft Bill.
3. Rode along to Nevis for a quick gondola lap on the red/Top Chief, then across to join the Great Glen Way route to Fort Augustus. Turkish cafe on the canalside is grand.
4. Corrieyairick, Wolftrax and Newtonmore. Stay at the Glen Hotel for good grub.
5. Tromie to Feshie to Geldie to Braemar.
6. Ballochbuie Forest, bypass Gelder Shiel, over to Loch Muick, Capel Mounth, stay at Clova hotel.
7. Bit of a zigzag, just for fun: Clova, Minister’s Path to Prosen, Hill of Strone west again to Backwater, east again to Balintore through the wee clash by Craig of Balloch, (good cafe at Lintrathen). Back roads and gravel south to get to the Sidlaws, over and join the Green Cycleway east around Dundee and down to the castle at Broughty Ferry. Eats at Visocchi’s.
