Strakin three

Slow Way not verified yet. Verify Strakin here.

You can start this route by train from Inverness. At the right time of day, there is a cafe at the hotel in Strathcarron, otherwise you're straight onto the riverside path then a brief stretch of road before heading in the hills, climbing steadily up Fionn abhainn. You pass the lovely Coire Fionnaraich MBA bothy before continuing to climb to Bealach Ban. This is all excellent footpath and easy to follow. Once over the bealach, there is a short section without path (although marked with cairns) before picking up another excellent path down to Ling Hut and Glen Torridon. It is spectacular scenery. Straight across the road and up Coire Dubh Mor - a good path and steady climb. Follow the path NE around the back of Sail Mhor, to get some of the most amazing views and then a steep climb alongside the waterfall to Loch Choire Mhic Fhearchair. From the Loch there is a challenging 5km section without path that involves some navigation and sensible route selections. It's time consuming and boggy. Not to be underestimated (this section too us around 3 hours!) before joining a good path up to an unnamed bealach (NG985625) where you get amazing views of Loch Maree and beyond. The path then descends towards Kinlochewe. This is one of the Cape Wrath Trail variations
