• I'm trying to find out if the last few hundred metres of the south path from corrour station to staoineag bothy are passable by bike - google maps resolution not sharp enough. anyone got any resources to help with this? I can find plenty of examples of people walking the north path (on youtube etc) but don't want to have to cross the river on the standing stones...

    edit: I'll probably just wild camp on the south shore of loch ossian. no availability at the youth hostel, sadly.

  • The lady that runs the YHA is super lovely. I arrived after dark once and asked if she sold any booze in the tuck shop, she didn't but she went to her own fridge and gave me a can of lager. Legend.
    Ask her if you can camp on her grounds or if she wouldn't mind you popping in the morning to use the facilities. Worth a punt.
    Around the Loch is a deer reserve so probably not officially wild camp territory, although I'm not sure if it's around the whole loch.

  • Thanks - I saw a report on a forum of someone wild camping discretely on the south coast of the loch, so hopefully it will be OK. We're not yet into stalking season, I think (late-Sept/Oct?) No availability at the YH unfortunately but have asked about camping in the grounds/use of the facilities - thanks for the tip.
