have walked this route a few times up to the reservoir from that car park but never as a circular... Alan Hi Alan, forgot to mention actually...it's only recent that you can walk this route without having to walk on the road. The've added a path which has greatly improved accessibility from the mai...

our_route.gpx Lovely afternoon walk. Not enough time for a report, but just about enough to upload a few images. :) Will no doubt add a report on Glen Finglas later on when I have finally had the opportunity to walk the Mell Trail here (13 miles). This time, I just walked up to the Glen Finglas vie...

A beautiful and moving report. When we reconnect with the natural world around us, we are focused. Time stands still because we are in the moment. In the present real time. No past, no future. Just the here and now. It's exhilarating and certainly the main reason for most of us to either go into the...

Love the pics of the squint tree, Its been years since i been up there, I must visit again soon. I am absolutely in love with trees... but the beech tree has truly enchanted me.

Has anyone heard about them or their products? Do we have a Scottish equivalent - with the same track record of course

Hi Astrid, Thats a good report with some good pictures there. It looks like an ideal hill to use as training for the munros with its steep ascent. Nice one. :D Thanks, Monty. Good suggestion about the training... I certainly will do that. It's on my doorstep and I definitely need the training (and ...

Good to see you all becoming involved so passionately :wink: Paramo (among others) is striving to produce ethically and environmentally friendly outdoor clothing. If we can support a company who makes that effort when we make a consumer choice, why wouldn't we? And yes, of course we should be discus...

Hi Astrid. Good info on the pics you got. This was a good day, just needed a bit of a breeze to get rid o the beasties. If i could mention about the track for any unexperienced walker best not to do anticlockwise. (or riding bicycle with high heels). :? Hi, Alan! Good to meet you here also! Thanks ...
