On the last day of my holiday I walked from Fort William to Neptune’s Staircase in Corpach. I’m planning to go back to Scotland in May and hope I’ll be more lucky with the weather and that I’ll get a better chance to climb the mountains.

I sincerely hope the weather will be better for you in May. :D I guess you’re limited to the school holidays, being a teacher. Otherwise early June is good for walking as well.

Hi Silverhill! Unfortunately I can only go during the school holidays, otherwise I’d go to Scotland every weekend.
Overall the week in October wasn’t that bad. I saw a lot of beautiful things and especially Skye impressed me.
