A fun addition to an otherwise tiring, long and arduous walk! The wire crossing over the Allt a'Chaonais is quite long. Users have to keep their body weight forward in order to stay upright (I learned this the hard way! Sadly for you, but luckily for me, no photographic evidence exists of me laying on my back in the river like a turtle stuck on its shell! 😂

A fun crossing, don't fall in! Always face one direction and push away from your chest.

On occasion heading up a hill can require one of these wire bridges to be crossed. Some balance required and makes an interesting point along the walk. Vital to cross the river here without getting wet or heading further upstream.
