There are diversions round Loch Lochy and Loch Oich at the mo due to forestry and a hydro electric scheme but well signposted (Loch Oich, you are on the GGW rather than ...

Re: West highland way
Hi Done it twice last September both ways , North to South seemed easier and faster for some reason. Sections around loch Lomond are brutal if you have a bag and a laden bike , but you can then check it off as Done , was debating doing again this year as it was quite the challenge but opting to atte...

Re: Water Filter
Hi Everyone
Thanks for the replies , i had a look and have decided against the water to go bottle , and looking into the filter instead ,
the Sawyer model i seen on Ebay looks like a winner , has multiple options for use and should give me what i need if i run out
Thanks
