Absolutely wonderful Paul, really enjoyed that.

Lovely to see Fiona again- she's a top girl indeed.

Hi

I did Sgurr na Banachdich as my compleation munro. Even some of the less experienced walkers managed no bother at all.

I also hired the Glen Brittle hut for the shindig afterwards- excellent accommodation.
Good Luck!

Hi Kathleen,
I'd be happy to go in again, I'm certainly daft enough. Xxx

NB Everyone should take Debs on their walks- she makes everything fun!

Absolutely wonderful Willie.

I am so chuffed to have been part of this epic day out - thank you for the invite xxxx

PS bailing on the 4th was never an option!

Big thanks to Gammy and Debs for inviting me along on their mission to finally conquer their remaining hills in Fisherfield. Dinner at the Whistlestop Café was smashing and fuelled us well for our 3 hour walk into FF. We had the beach to ourselves at Lochan Fada and thanks to earplugs and an eyemask...

Another epic failure! Reached the 705m mark on SNF and about 1.5km from the summit. Horizontal hailstones meant a late retreat from what was a smashing hill. Definitely worth another visit even just to cross that wobbly bridge again!!! Hill buzz was replaced with the terror of driving the Bealach na...

Tremendous photos DB, MT take a few of them???? Or did she just steal them as usual?

You should have seen her on the Montrose St hill sprints last night. Ahead of me the whole way and still managed to tell a great story or three!

Sorry to have missed this but duty called.

Heard the craic was unmissable.

If you are staying in Playa Blanca then get the ferry aross to Corralejo on Fuerteventura and then a bus out to Tindaya which is a half decent hill.Don`t know if you still need a permit as it has sacred carvings on the top .I never bothered ,Montana Rojo (?) at the southern end of the Corralejo dun...

Hope you have a smashing time. We don't go until mid Feb, so please don't keep all the best weather for yourself

I went up Hacha Grande and Montana Roja a few years back, trip reports below and I can send on a gpx for you for Hacha Grande if that helps? It's also public on Viewranger. https://www.walkhighlands.co.uk/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=56636 https://www.walkhighlands.co.uk/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&...

Absolutely wonderful report

I did this hill in frozen, unpleasant conditions so I am extremely jealous of your icecapades and amazing photos

Thanks for the giggles, I'm away to read more of your reports.

Bummer Dave

Keep your return visit for a day when there are some mad Weegies ( a even madder languisher!) on the loose

Thanks for that Broggy. I would like to do both the volcano climb and the 10K running route. We're staying in Puerto Del Carmen. I'm away to see how far apart the two towns are.
