Camping in the Outer Hebrides
A few snapshots from last month’s camping trip to Harris & Lewis (via Skye), and plenty more on flickr.
Beginning the West Island Way
February was the month we were walking the West Island Way, a 40km way marked trail around Bute. The bags were packed, ferry taken, campsite checked in to. Unfortunately, the weather had other ideas. We trudged through massively boggy ground for the first 8km, the Kilchattan Bay circular, before deciding to spend the rest of the weekend drinking coffee and reading books.
