A RIDE TO ACHNACLYTH WITH CATH AND DOLLY (16/9/24)

It was a beautiful morning for a long ride from Houstry to Achnaclyth. It is one of my favourite places to ride with awesome views in every direction. Dunbeath River winds its way alongside the track, and there are many old remains of crofts scattered along the lonely landscape.
The white walled Tutnaguail Cemetery stands in a stunning location, and further on at the end of the track is Achnaclyth - an uninhabited farmstead. We stopped there for a bite to eat and a rest before heading back.
The track is also winding and is quite stony in parts but also has a couple of great grassy areas for a canter.
I am feeling very blessed and so grateful to have had such a fabulous ride and great company with Cath and Dolly.
Approx 11 miles.
