Kintyre Way solitude and Celtic myths win June prizes

Each month 2 reports are chosen to win vouchers from Scottish outdoor gear retailer, Highlander. For June the £100 1st prize goes to Stuart3957 for Six days on the Kintyre Way. His report gives an honest, and beautifully illustrated, account of this, often-overlooked, Scottish long distance route. Have a read and be motivated to start planning your own multi-day adventure.

A Perthshire bike and hike wins the runner up prize. A £50 voucher is on its way to malcy_c for Beinn Mhanac from the east – an inspiration to explore different routes and lovely to see the Tigh nam Bodach and the stone family out in the glen. If the photo of the “house of the old man” looks interesting, you can read more about the Celtic folklore surrounding it in this article for Walkhighlands by David Lintern.
