Itinerary description

|
Show original
We landed in Edinburgh in the afternoon and took the bus over Glasgow to the Highlands then got off at Bridge of Orchi at about 17:00. Then we first drank the first pint of this trip in the pub of the same name. The weather was pretty good, we then went the dirt road towards Loch Tulla, a picturesque highland lake. At the Inveroan Pub, we did not stop by without stopping. Soon after, we searched for a spot to pitch our tents on the way. We found a few meters away from the path a small "island", a dry hump in the swamp where we have built our tents. After dinner we were, after a bit of red wine, soon bed heavy and went to sleep. A cold wind started, some mountain peaks still had snow caps.
