PICTURESQUE. SCOTLAND AT ITS BEST.
THIS CACHE, WHICH INCLUDING A LOGBOOK, PENCIL AND PLENTY OF SWAPS PLUS A UNIQUE FTF GIFT, IS LOCATED ALONG A QUIET SINGLE TRACK FORMER DROVERS’ ROAD TO KINLOCHOURN BY THE SHORES OF LOCH GARRY. CONVENIENT PARKING CLOSE BY.
AFTER VISITING THE CACHE, PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO CONTINUE ALONG THE ROAD TO THE END. 22 MILES OF UNSPOILT HIGHLAND SPLENDOR WITH SOME OF THE MOST BREATHTAKING VIEWS. YOU ARE ALMOST GUARANTEED TO SEE DEER OR HIGHLAND CATTLE ROAMING FREE. FURTHER ALONG, PASS BY THE LOCH QUOICH DAM WHICH WAS COMPLETED IN 1962 AS PART OF ONE OF THE LARGEST OF THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC SCHEMES WHICH BROUGHT ELECTRICITY TO THE HIGHLANDS FOR THE FIRST TIME; THE DAM IS ALMOST 320 METRES LONG AND 38 METRES HIGH, AND FEEDS THE QUOICH POWER STATION FURTHER DOWN THE GLEN. AT THE END OF THE ROAD YOU WILL STEP BACK IN TIME, WITH A 17TH CENTURY COTTAGE NEARBY, ALSO THE SETTLEMENTS OF SKIARY AND RUNIVAL ON THE PATH TO BARISDALE, REPUTED TO BE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL LOCHSIDE WALK IN SCOTLAND. HERE ARE BREATH TAKING VIEWS AT THE HEAD OF LOCH HOURN.
