Callop Bridge, which has been closed for the last few years, has now re-opened. The bridge is a vital link on the Cape Wrath Trail, and its closure led to backpackers walking miles along the dangerous verge of the very busy A830 road to reach Glenfinnan.
Forestry Land Scotland have undertaken the repair work. This include new marine steps up onto the bridge. The boardwalk on the approach to the bridge has been removed and the ground is very subject to flooding. There is, however, an informal path over Torran Guibhais which avoids the flooded area (as described on our updated stage description), and F&LS are to carry out further work to encourage walkers to make use of this over the next month.
