Could you please give me a wee bit more information how usually it happens( should I be a member of something, how to pay for accommodation, how to get there.Do you have any car sharing facilities?)
Hi Jelena, welcome to WH
You don't have to be a member of anything. Basically, 3 times a year a large-ish group of Walkhighlands posters meet up, stay in a bunkhouse, walk hills, eat good food and drink a small amount of whisky. These are organised by a "volunteer", in this case, me
Check the first post on Page 1 for full info about the accommodation etc. If you want to join us, you'd be very welcome and if so, PM me for payment details.
In terms of transport, I don't know if anyone else is coming up from the borders, but you could arrange to meet someone in Glasgow/Edinburgh or wherever and car share from there. The people on this site are great company and very helpful, so i'm sure someone will be able to help you out re transport.
In terms of getting there if you're not car sharing, basically head for Perth and the A9, follow it all the way up past Inverness, follow the signs for Ullapool. The location is about half an hours drive beyond Ullapool on the same road.
