A hard few days as we had 50mph winds at Cluanie and plenty of rain throughout! Fortunately the rain came at the right times and the rivers were low when we needed to cross them.
We have been walking through areas we know from climbing Munros but it's novel linking them all up together in a linear walk. Some parts have been easier than expected and some harder but that's the way it goes...
Tomorrow we visit the Kinlochewe shop, our first for over a week - special!
Our Flat Coat Retriever Barney is walking the length of Great Britain with us starting 27th March 2015. The route is from Land's End to John O'Groats and is approx. 1400 miles / 2500km mostly off-road and will take about 4 months. We are doing it for fun but Barney has a mission - to collect money for Guide Dogs! Help him along the way - just click the donations tab to find out how...

Don't go mad with the retail therapy. Remember it will be difficult to take things back to the shop if you change your minds! Jane the Witch
ReplyDeleteWe too have just crossed a big river:The Somme. We were in on the motorway in our van, at the beginning of our journey as yours draws to its conclusion. Sorry we cannot be there to meet and greet you. Good luck for your last stages- a great effort all round, especially by Barney.

Hi Barney, my name is Rune, I'm a Springer Spaniel and I'm also travelling and raising money for a charity - Springer Rescue for Scotland. This weekend we will be in Poolewe, not far from where you are now. It would be great if we could meet up. Here is my blog: http://spanielinasidecar.com/
