Re: Scottish National trail - Autumn 2020

Congrats on completing the SNT. Great effort, well done. :clap: Hope your left leg has recovered. Looked like you got way more rain than when you did the CWT but not as many midges :) Always forward! Thanks so much Alba - this is actually my husband, not me but yes his leg's fully recovered :-). In...

Scottish National trail - Autumn 2020

Hi everyone, my husband and I completed the Cape Wrath Trail this summer (I wrote a report in this forum). He got hooked and went for the Scottish National Trail in September / October. There are not many SNT reports around so I thought of sharing this with you - he loves good audio and took some ti...

Love the report - did you get a lot of midges that time of the year ?

Re: Cluanie to Morvich

Thanks for the pictures and the walk description. Am considering joining my husband for a few days on his Scottish National Trail and was investigating the difficulty (and bogginess) of the trail. Your post has been incredibly helpful !

Re: Hiking the Cape Wrath (aka ‘Cape Rough’) Trail

Really enjoyed both the read, and the video - it's an epic trail, and there was something very suitably epic about the 24 hour rain on the first day, and the mixed sun, wind and sea mist on the last - like bookends. The perspective on paths is interesting: some of us prefer them, others go to some ...

And yes, I'm only saying good things about midges from herein in the hopes they leave me alone as an "ally".


Hahaha, that's a brilliant strategy - let me know if it works out and I will follow :wink:

Re: Hiking the Cape Wrath (aka ‘Cape Rough’) Trail

Excellent report and video. Really enjoyed that. The midges are a curse and Scotland can indeed be rough so well done on your perseverence. The video is great, originally edited and very hypnotic. The 'school lesson' was very funny, made me laugh. Cheers. Thanks so much for the encouraging feedback...

Hiking the Cape Wrath (aka ‘Cape Rough’) Trail

Hi everyone, in August 2020, my husband and I walked the Cape Wrath Trail over 320 km. My husband put together this video in which he tried to show the rough and varied beauty of the Scottish landscape, as well as our ups and downs while on the trail. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7oI8o48yAo&...
