Hi all. If doing a multi day trial if you had the use of push bikes and a motor home. How would you do it? Drive and drop bikes off at the end of a section drive back to start and walk to bikes ride back to start.(could be tired and dont want the ride) Or leave Motorhome at the end ride back to star...

No one has mentioned "172 hrs" yet. A while since I have seen it but a great film as is 127 hours :wink: really enjoyed the film and it showed why people go off into the wild by themselves, and also how easy it is for something to go wrong. Sorry could have said it was a typo but no I got...

Not seen "The Way" will have to look out for it. Was going to say in HMV next time where in town but dont know is HMV will be there.
The walking related film I like is "Wild"
This is a different movie than "In to the Wild"

The Seaforth changed hands a few years ago. Its now owned by a pub chain. Think that is when it started to go down hill. Even the locals had a moan about beer prices. As for the Indian heard the food is good. But they dont have a license to sell alcohol but your allowed to take your own.

You could do what someone we met doing it did, and get your wife to meet you anywhere the CWT went anywhere near the road and take you back to a hotel. I think she had based herself somewhere near Kinlochewe and was doing all sorts of trips. Of course, Knoydart still had to be done solo. Mind you, ...

Thanks guys. Did not think it would be possible especially the Knoydart and the last bit. Also so I know how hard it is to find rooms.
Just trying to make the sleeping bit a bit better so may be able to talk the wife in to tagging along.

Just a quick question is it possible to do the CTW and not wild camp.

Hi Ya Re Water We live just off the CWT and our water comes off the hill. Ours is all filtered and treated for reasons I wont go into. But our neighbors is not and they drink it straight off the hill. In fact at the moment our treatment system is out of order and where drinking water out the taps. S...

Yep we had snow. As for the disruption cant say its been that bad here. Try not to drive at night and wait till you see the gritter/ plough in the day. Or just sit in and light the wood burner

At least the Midges dont like it

It not just the scenery that needs sorting. Some Accommodation providers need taking to task LOL. But while you guys read this am off to the local to see if any other tourist needs help :roll: The review is off Google Maps Google reviews Will Cooper 2 reviews 2 weeks ago With the car park being over...

All depends how far you want to do a day. You see a lot of cars just left for days on end and people just head off into the hill.
Or you could do a small part of the CWT.

Hi
Assynt is really nice if you have not been here well worth a visit. There is that much to do its hard to say where to start.
OK it is a bit of a trip from Glasgow. But once past Inverness the views you yuo get up to Ullapool and beyond are well worth it.
