Day 17 - Fort William to Drumnadrochit

More brownie points to cycle-friendly host Andrew for preparing a champion breakfast, including his wife's home-made mackerel paté. We even got oaty bars ('slow energy release, aye?!') for the ride.

A fine but strenuous day, beside and between the lochs...

Fort Augustus, early evening:






Late arrival at our B+B meant a brisk power-walk down the road to meet the food deadline at the Loch Ness Inn. It was worth it: crunchy vegetables at last.

  1. Did you make up "Loch Lochy" for any lochs you didn't know the name of?! "Loch Lochy"? Come on!

  2. No - it's real! In fact, it's the lochiest loch there is. If you've visited other lochs and found that they're not quite lochy enough, I recommend visiting this one - it's quite a bit lochier.
