Super day you all got, i've allways fancied this one along with the Corbet Creag Mhor with a visit to the Barns of Bynack thrown in. Not sure if would be to long a walk though, although i'd probably use a bike as that path looks ideal for cycling.
Cheers :thumbup:

Johnny think there was one part just after the bridge that was gravel like, but it would be ideal for cycling too
