Day 2 - Glenfinnan to Kinloch Hourn
From the very start of Day 2 the route ascends into remote territory, and clips the end of Scotland’s two longest dead-end roads, both at remote sea loch heads. Even when you reach the overnight, you will be far, far away from civilisation.
All distances and height gain data are for guidance only. The route is subject to change.
