Hi

I'm in the area from July 20-29, any suggestions for routes? Maybe some wild camping along the way?

Thanks!

where do you start???? there's so many options, I would probably start by heading up Geln Neivs, there's the Ben, the Mamores etc etc and you could always wander over Rannock Moor????

Thanks for those suggestions. I've found the walkhighlands site particularly useful, so I've a handful of ideas so I can hit the ground running and get some distance in. Mostly I'm looking for stuff around 1000m plus ascent and over 5 hours and the walkhighlands site has some ideas, a couple I'll join up and make a three or four trip from I think.

I must check the weather and midge forecast  :)
