Here are a few short videos from the fast boat journey from Inverie to Skiary (not particularly good quality I'm afraid):

Fabulous report of what I think is going to be one of my most favourite places in the world... Great photos too...
You may aswell have a quick look on webtogs, fancy you'll have some cash to spare soon

I hope the pictures don't encourage everyone to visit Knoydart all at once and overcrowd it... ah, no, the midges will probably stop that!

Fantastic
Must get myself to Knoydart. Planned an overnighter once but poor weather meant a change of plan. I must get there!

Nice one GT. Agree with all, a great report with cracking pictures. Have managed 3 visits and can't wait for my next return to pints and guitar thrashing in my favourite pub

Absolutely superb report and pictures
Particularly loved the photo of the stag, but then all the photos were superb. This area has evaded me so far, but seeing your report and pictures I can't wait to get in there

Hopefully I'll be returning next year and staying in Inverie - then I'll be able to see the Old Forge in its element, in the evenings!
It was really quiet when we were there for lunch, and I was driving so couldn't sample the real ale!
I saw the guitars hanging up and drum (bodhran?) on the window sill...

Really well written. Are deer psychic? You fantasising about eating them and then finding a stag squaring up to you the next day...
Never seen the word "bimbled" before but it is somehow very evocative.

Hehe, yes I think they must be!
That stag was a bit too close for comfort!
It's one of my favourite walking words... very descriptive I think!
