Road Trip through Scotland II

On the road from Glencoe to Glasgow. Seriously Scotland, seriously?

Glencoe, you are too beautiful

And if I ever get back to Scotland, this is where I’ll be walking. Rugged mountains, waterfalls, moors at sunset. Why oh why did we only have time to drive through.

Ben Nevis

Ben Nevis. Highest mountain in the British Isles. We took the cable car to a peak about half the height of Ben Nevis, watched the snow blow in and out and walked to some of the nearby lookouts. Ben Nevis occasionally grimaced from behind the cloud cover. A young Scottish BMX team were being filmed practicing their starts down the hill. Lunch was a venison burger and more importantly a hot toddy using whiskey from the local Ben Nevis distillery. This was made all the more better watching hard working people outside hiking and mountain biking up and down steep hills in the freezing cold.

Road trip through Scotland

On the A 82 from Glenelg to Ben Nevis. What Scotland needs is more lay by lanes to admire these views!

Eilean Doolan Castle

Clachan Durch Burial Ground

Loch Cluanie

Loch Cluanie is an impressive dam on the A 87 route to Kyle Lochalsh from Inverness. A cold pitstop.
