Torridon TGO Challenge Start Point

A small village on its titular loch under spectacular mountains. It’s another start point that requires a bit of planning to get there. However, it is well worth the effort with several wonderful stalkers paths leading through spectacular scenery though the tough terrain makes it better suited to those with Scottish experience.

Register: Torridon Youth Hostel, 01445 791284, torridon@hostellingscotland.org.uk

Getting there: Kyle of Lochalsh train from Inverness to Strathcarron. The afternoon train connects with the DKM motors (01520 722682) bus service to Torridon most days. In 2018 it did not run on Fridays. This is a 14 seater bus and cannot be pre-booked. Challengers have often got together via the message board to organise taxis from Inverness.
