Hi NellLance,
There are many great places to swim in the Highlands. Almost too many to mention here! Read my contributions on this website about, among others, Loch Morar, Loch Lochy, Loch Awe, Loch Ossian, Loch Cluanie, Loch Lubnaig, Ganavan Sands, Camusdarach Beach.

Thanks!

Hi folks,

Hopefully, 2022 will be a better year, in which I can travel from the Netherlands to the Highlands without difficulties. Keep hiking and take beautiful ...

Landgenoten!

Hi Petr,

What a nice walk! For now, I will not be able to enjoy hiking or swimming in the Highlands. I'll catch up with all that I have missed in Scotland, when the Coronavirus is past and it is safe to go again. By the way, I like your hip flask.

Opened this hoping you might be the guy we met in Bendronaig Bothy once who had completed the Munros and whose next project was to swim all the mountain lochans. We thought there must be many thousand, some merely puddles, but he reassured us that they had to be named on the O/S. However, we felt w...

The colder, the better! However, do not try it at home!

Hi Andy,

Impressive photos ! The circuit is on my to-do list and so is the lochan.

Recently, I have only posted few reports on the Walkhighlands forum. There are so many spectacular and beautiful reports of other members. In comparison to those, my reports do not seem very exciting. However, this Corona pandemic has made me change my view on this point. At the moment, it is uncert...
