Hello, This walk is about 9km and took us 3.5hrs. We are experienced walkers who are hill fit so you can easily extend the time by a few hours for less frequent hill goers. Here is some other information regarding this walk from Walkhighlands....www.walkhighlands.co.uk/skye/blabheinn.shtml Cheers

Hello, That's always the problem when you get into three figures as you find out your hours travelling are longer than the time walking. No real easy answer, on distant day trips we'll leave 01:00ish and have a few hours sleep in the car or roadside tent before walking. Its all depends on how you can handle that routine. Through the longer days we'll have an overnight in the tent and walk both days to maximise the number of Munros to the gallon. We also have had a walking week in May for years which has been successful in collecting many of the further away Munros. I hope you continue to enjoy the Munro journey as I suspect there are a few you have still to complete that will get into your top six. Enjoy.... Cheers

Hi Kevin, Really glad you enjoying viewing our adventures. Hopefully, a good snowy winter will give us something a bit different for a change. Many thanks. Cheers

Hello, Really glad you enjoyed this one, as you saw, it was a stunner. It's a route we have completed a few times and it's very enjoyable and certainly doable. It's also a route you can easily shorten as condition develop on the day. Many thanks for watching. Cheers

Hello, Really glad you enjoyed this one. We normally complete the Fisherfield six in a single outing from Kinlochewe so it was nice to break them down for a change after getting stormed off the mountain on a previous visit. It's a magic remote area which cries out for being done in clear conditions just to fully enjoy the adventure. Enjoy, when you get around to them. Cheers

How far in can you get with the bike Charlie, just trying to save energy and time. I see there are a few fords to navigate. Thanks in advance 👍

@ You’ll get into the west end of the loch with the bike as the track goes to the bothy. Cheers

Hi Steven, We did indeed had a cracker and we just didn't want it to end. There are so many super tops in this area it's hard to choose a favourite. We've a walking week planned for May next year in the area and we'll certainly get around the a few of the tops again 👍 Cheers

Hi Barrie, Yes, one of those days you just didn't want to end 👍 Cheers

Hi Derek, Its a route we've completed before so we had a good idea of what to expect. The cracking conditions help when trying to extent the day for as long as possible. Just superb... Cheers

Hello, Yes, that would be nice. A bit of in condition snow would be the icing on the cake 👍 Cheers

Hi Mark, Really glad you enjoyed our latest outing. It was a cracker an in conditions that were better than days during the summer. Many thanks. Cheers

Hello, We fancied walking through as much of the daylight as possible, particularly in the stunning conditions. Many thanks for watching. Cheers

Hi Andy, As you say, its a terrific part of Scotland and when the weather is like this its an absolute joy. I can understand your frustration as November is turning into a settled month. Hopefully, not too long before you're heading north again. Take care. Cheers

Hi Frank, Its such a stunning area with the majority of the peaks having something special about them. Ciste Dhubh is certainly up there but it's hard to pick out a favourite from this whole area if you include Glen Affric. The shot of Mike heading for the 3rd Munro was stunning and my initial thumbnail but I opted for the summit view with the two M's. I enjoyed your latest bike&hike upload on Ben Lui, very nice and a special day to remember. Take care. Cheers

Hi Charles, Thank you. When conditions are like this you certainly want to try and maximise the day. It was just a joy and probably one of the best weather days through this year. Cheers

Hi itsablack, Yes, that would certainly have been the icing on the cake 🤣 Many thanks. Cheers

Hi Andy, A circuit like that doesn't feel quite as tough when the conditions are like this. It's also great at trying to keep the hill fitness going for the season ahead. Cheers

Hi 45ltr, We've had a few soakings in Glen Shiel but like you always managed to enjoy the outings, it's just magic to visit an area with Munros hanging over the roadside. Cheers

Hello, Yes, the light was terrific and makes for some stunning images. Many thanks for watching. Cheers

Hi Patricia, Thank you. When the weather is this good you just don't want the day to end quickly.... just magic. Cheers

Hi Stevie, It was worth the effort to travel a wee bit further than normal and it turned out to be one of those days you didn't want it to end. The conditions and light throughout the day was spectacular. Cheers

Hi Kevin, Thank you, really glad you enjoyed yesterday's outing. Cheers

Hi Wolfgang, You'll enjoy these two when you get around to them. You just can't fail in Glen Shiel. Many thanks... Cheers

Hi Philip, Thank you, glad you enjoyed this one. The low winter sun gives some terrific light throughout the short day. Just magic.... Cheers

Hi Jonathan, I have to admit, I do enjoy the short walk in mountains and Glen Shiel certainly delivers on that one. It's such a terrific area with many walking options. Many thanks... Cheers

Hi Malcolm, Yes, not a normal grouping but great getting the extra legwork. We've completed this route a few times now so we had a good idea of what to expect. The excellent conditions also give you a wee boost to keep going and prolong the day as long as possible. All good stuff... Cheers

@@charliemccartney7055 Cheers Charlie. Appreciate, very much, your posts.

Hi Brian, Yesterday was always looking settled so it was great getting a bit further north for a change. The day, was probably one of our best weather outing through the season. Cheers

Hi Kev, Yes, Tuesday was always looking like a cracker for the weather so decided to travel a wee bit further than normal and were rewarded for the effort. Glen Shiel takes a bit of beating 👍 Take care. Cheers

Hi Murdo, Its a good way to pick off Ciste Dhubh as a single as your passing through. It's a cracking walk regardless of your route option. It's such a bonnie top and always a joy to visit the smallest cairn in Scotland. Take care, Cheers

Hi Willam, Many thanks, really glad you enjoy our uploads. We certainly enjoy the benefits of keeping the hill fitness going although we are slowing as the years roll on. The one thing you can say about winter days is that the natural side light is generally terrific on days like yesterday, its a photographers dream 👍Cheers

Hello My darling, Not bad for a couple of old farts with only two good knees between them. Unfortunately I don't have either of them.... 🤣Xxx

😂😂 xxx

Hi frpaul, Was that not a glorious day to be out on the hills and there was a benefit of being inland as I noticed the coastal tops were picking up cloud through the day. Really hope you had a day to remember 👍 Cheers

Hi James, I may need to start carrying a ladder if he keeps this up 🤣 Glen Shiel in these conditions is pure magic. Unfortunately, the camera struggles to capture the scale or grandeur of the landscape but I suppose that's why we get up and get out. Cheers

Hi Robert, I'm sure you'll certainly enjoy a repeat visit to these two and I hope you get similar conditions. Glen Shiel is an absolute joy when its like this. Cheers

Hello, "That's for sure" but great exercise for the legs 👍We've done that route a few times now and it doesn't get any easier 🤣 Cheers

Hi Dave, Yes, the forecast was a stick on so decided to travel a bit further and enjoy Glen Shiel in Autumn colour. An absolutely cracking day and one saw one other walker all day. Cheers

Hi Adam, Many thanks for your subscription, its much appreciated. You would certainly enjoy this very popular Munro. A good path all the way to the summit ridge and stunning views once you get there. Take care. Cheers

Hello, Yes, the first Munro goes on a bit but a super day. Like you, my first visit to this ridge was 39 years ago with my Dad.... great memories. Cheers

@@charliemccartney7055 not sure to add this but I think my Dad knew your Dad!

@@wallace-bv4rl Great stuff, its a small world. My dad had many contacts through work, golf, photograph, walking, climbing.... as you can tell he was into everything.

Hi Geoffrey, Its a cracking spot for a cup of tea and an opportunity to take in the views. Cheers

Hi Alan, Many thanks and really great you enjoy our uploads. Hopefully, many more to come through the coming months. Cheers

Hi Elizabeth, Its terrific that you enjoy watching our uploads as it's much appreciated. Hopefully many more to come if the winter weather behaves itself. Cheers

Hi Brian, Many thanks. Just one of those Glencoe days that you dream about. Cheers

Hi Wolfgang, I thought this is one you would have completed on a previous visit. No matter, you have a treat coming in June and I hope the weather is on your side. We are heading to Glen Shiel for our walking week next year and looking forward to it already as we'll also have a trip across to Skye. Take care... Cheers

Hi Donald, Sorry, I don't know the status of parking for Glen Affric. Cheers

Hi Les, Really glad you enjoyed this one in its Autumn colours. The glen was looking splendid with temperatures to reflect the season. Many thanks. Cheers

Hi Malkie, Many thanks. I really hope you have a super clear day to fully enjoy the experience on this classic ridge. Cheers

Hello, Many thanks, really glad you enjoyed this one. It was a cracking day and always a joy getting on these tops. Thanks for watching... Cheers

Hi jk, Really glad you enjoyed this one, it was a super day. Many thanks. Cheers

Hello, Yes, the total ticks on but focused on trying to hit the good weather slots on some of the classic tops. Cheers
