Hike Beinn Dearg, Blair Atholl ⛰️
One of the more straightforward long Munro days we’ve done. Mostly good estate tracks and easy walking, with only the final section becoming a bit steeper towards the summit ridge.
The route felt very efficient without bikes and the paths were surprisingly dry almost the entire way 👍
Nice little…

Glas Maol circuit from Cairnwell Pass – 4 Munros loop ⛰️
A very enjoyable and efficient Munro round starting high from Cairnwell Pass. The route follows a mix of estate tracks, clear paths and wide, open plateau terrain linking four Munros in a straightforward loop.

Lurg Mhòr & Bidein a’ Choire Sheasgaich – Remote Bike & Hike from Attadale
We started at the car park by Attadale Gardens. The first 3 km are on tarmac, then it turns to gravel and the bike pushing begins. The steep section is proper tough for about 2 km, after that it’s a mix of climbs and descents all the way to Bendronaig…

Long circular route linking four Munros in the eastern Fannichs. Good track on approach, followed by a sustained ascent onto the ridge.
Navigation can be challenging in poor visibility — broad, featureless sections on the plateau and multiple cairns.
Terrain is a mix of rocky ridge and grassy sections. Typically…

Walk with Loch Ness views 😍 - Craigmonie & Divach Falls, Drumnadrochit
Nice easy walk through Craigmonie Forest with great views over Loch Ness and Drumnadrochit. Good paths most of the way, but can get a bit muddy in places.
Divach Falls at the end is well worth it, especially after rain when it’s properly flowing. You’ll often pass Highland cows along…

It’s a relatively short hike, but definitely a demanding one. The first 2 km are a steady uphill walk with an amazing view of the summit ahead. On the way you pass a small gorge with a beautiful waterfall.
After reaching the second gorge you cross the stream and the…
