To the West Coast (29th July 2016)

Friday 29th July 2016

Started the walk from Knockdamph, an easy start but more difficult up the valley as no path. Continued over steep pass, over 500m [above sea level], also tough. Down to Inverlael, via “Siberia” forestry. First view of west coast.

Looking towards Loch Broom (a sea loch on the west coast) from Inverlael

Decided to continue on and make more progress. A steep but pleasant climb on “coffin road” and gradual decline into Corrie Hallie – according to the guidebook, there is nowhere to camp, but I found a spot near road below a field fence. Midges were bothering me again.

Distance: 20.9 miles [view on map]

Spending: £0

Mood: 😐 -> 🙂 -> 😐
