Started with a full scotish breakfast 🍳 (including haggis and black pudding) and left the B&B around 09:30 up the Glen Roy. Initially with a lot of rain and subsequently fighting against heavy heavy headwind.
Total of 30km in a little more than 7 hours.
And I stayed for the first time in a scotish bothy with 4 other challengers that I will meet again on friday in Braemar.
This is a very long stretch to Brae Roy Lodge (hunting lodge) and the further up the Glen. On the way the gourgeous Roy Falls.
Another 2 hours after that you cross into a new glen / valley starting with Loch Spey and River Spey. The namegiver of the famous whisky region Speyside.
Around 17:00 I arrived in the bothy … the fire was still going and the deer gazing outside not bothered by us.
After dinner and some very nice chatting we all went to sleep at around 21:30 … my plan for tomorrow will probably be to reach Newtonmore on a little more direct path. We will see!
