Small bothy with two rooms: one dormitory with four bunk beds for eight walkers/bikers. No fireplace in the bothy, but there is a pit toilet in the next building. Bring your own toilet paper, just in case!

During the TGO Challenge this a really fun place with awesome people treating the hikers with food and drinks. It is donation-based, so bring some cash since there is no cell service here.

Hiking

An easy 40 minute walk following the land rover track to the bothy, a good overnight stop or handy place to leave bikes if heading up to Munros and Corbetts.

Easy to find and maintained by the MBA. Outdoor composting toilet here also.
