Walk Description

Stage 1

There is parking, toilets and a seasonal cafe at the Glengarry Community Centre, reached off the A87 in Invergarry. Begin the walk by following the path which leads directly from the front of the centre up to the main road. Briefly turn right along the pavement before crossing the road and turning off it to the left by two whitewashed cottages - before the road reaches a bridge. Follow a track which leads up between the two cottages.

Stage 2

The very grassy track passes through a gate and climbs gently through mixed woodland, soon passing a pebble-dashed building. Continue on the track, which can be a little muddy and overgrown in places, passing through a second gate. There are many beautiful silver birches and the busy road is soon forgotten. When the track reaches a t-junction, turn right (taking a note of this junction so you don't miss the turning on the way back).

Stage 3

The trees become more widely spaced, permitting more extensive views as the track passes through yet another gate. The shapely cone of Ben Tee is prominent looking back over to the left, reflected in a tiny lochan. A little further on a short section of track often becomes waterlogged, particularly after rain; the worst of it can be avoided on the right.

Stage 4

Keep looking out to the left to ensure you don't miss the wooden boathouse on the shores of Loch Lundie. This is worth the short detour to the water's edge, where there is a stony slipway giving good views out across the water. The sprawling slopes of the Corbett Meall Dubh rise across the loch, its upper parts dotted with the great turbines of the Millenium Wind Farm.

Stage 5

Return back to the track. The return to Invergarry is the same way, though it is worth continuing a little further along the track for more open views across the loch. Those intent on a much longer walk could continue on the track and either walk through to Fort Augustus, or perhaps head to the Bridge of Oich and return to Invergarry on the route of the Glen Glen Cycleway.
