As noted by a previous contributor there is now a wide dirt road from the ferry terminal to Oban Marina with no bog to cross. Comfortable walking all the way to the monument although the new track stops well short of that. The circuit's bog factor could probably now be changed as well as the timings. It remains a beautiful walk with some fantastic views.
