Help connect Gairloch

Many Slow Ways have several route options. Some will be better than others, or good for different reasons.

Our goal is for each Slow Way to have at least one route that is verified and surveyed. To be verified – and get its snail badge – a route needs at least three positive reviews.

Give a hike and help get a for every one of Gairloch’s Slow Ways.

Gairloch—Poolewe

The footpaths on the OS map to the north of the road in the central part of the walk look as if they do mostly exist but the first part going from the main road (where it says ‘Ford’ on the OS map) is super wet bog and no sign of a path any more. On the latter part of the route going north from the main road there is a big stony track up to the communication towers on the hill....
