Puck’s Glen

Wendy stepped in to lead the walk from Benmore Gardens around Puck's Glen on a beautiful sunny autumn day. We had a longer than usual drive to reach it due to a bridge being demolished by the storms in the past weeks, but were well rewarded, and had a lovely stop at the tearooms in Strachur on the way home.

Balnakeilly Loop

A very last minute change to the published walk, as the Colintraive ferry was off due to technical reasons, so our quick thinking leader took us round the Balnakeilly loop from Rhubodach, with a visit to the World Ward II bunker.
