Afternoon out


Alfascozzesi

Recommended Posts

Weather was holding and with rain forecast for the next week and a half decided to get myself out.

 

Spean Bridge to Banavie back road to avoid the World Mountain biking and turn right on the road to Mallaig. After Glenfinnan take the turning off to Lochalaine all the way to Strontian and back around by the Corran ferry through Fort William and home. Some great views but as ever when the road is great you never stop so piccys not as good as they should be!!

That’s a brilliant route with fantastic roads.

Spent a few days up that area last month. We stayed in a house over the road from Glenfinnan church. It's a beautiful part of the world.

Pic taken from the forestry road, across the loch towards Glenfinnan. Church monument and viaduct all in the background.

Good until Sunday at least. 

 

We put up with a fair amount of moisture as well but when it’s like this there is nowhere better.

 

Going to head over to Kyle tomorrow after work, pretty much the same road we did when you were doing your tour.

Quick run out to Mallaig and back yesterday after work. Back road past the Caledonian canal and then onto the main route. Morar beach as busy as I have seen it. All photos taken on the move. What weather though and roads not so busy with tourists although a single Westy can usually get past most.

Give me a shout when you are coming up if you want a running mate for part of the journey.

 

I still think you are in Scotland as much as I am!!
