Saturday morning and it's cold again. I wake up in a layby just off the A9, slightly South of Inverness, and waste no time in starting my drive towards Glen Strathfarrah. This gated Glen is supposed to be one of the most beautiful glens in the Highlands. It is.
Sue and I heads off down the Glen, we had got the code to the gate and all the relevant permissions to be there. A large walking party was setting off at the same time as us, as was a solitary chap on a bycical.
The Glen was full of mist but as we headed up the slips it turned out to be an incredible sea of our inversion.
The round of 4 Munros was superb. A gloriously high and airy ridge line, that was wide enough not to cause any discomfort. We had stunning views across the whole of the highlands. So here are some photos. Make up your own minds.
I took so many photos I'm not sure which ones to post up. Oh well. The day was spectacular. We walked off the mountains into the setting sun and it was full dark, and a thick mist filled he Glen by the time we got back to the valley road.
A short while into what could have been a long walk back to the van, Steve Fallon, the walking grous guide came along in his Land Rover and offered us a lift back to the van, where his clients were waiting. Needless to say we agreed and saved ourselves a long walk.
