Re: Plockton start short cut in forest

2011 and the path from your GR out into open country was virtually impassable, OK it was impassable in that we couldn't get through without major surgery, either to forest or ourselves. Detoured around the path to the south of Carn na Creige but that disappears fairly shortly after where you would have re-entered the woods. Ended up just getting out of the trees and heading where at least you could see where you were going. If you're heading towards Bendronaig Lodge you may be interested in a superb camp site just to the NW of Loch Fuar where waterfall is shown on map. In a steep sided depression below the waterfall there's a lovely grassy patch, plenty of room for 4 tents or more - probably best not considered if it's wet and the burn is high. I'd include a photograph if only I knew how!

Thanks looks like we go the long way

Re: Plockton start short cut in forest

Bit late now, but I was there in 2009 and posted this also on Geograph here. I did manage to get through but it was extremely difficult. What made you ask about this particular piece of track marked on the map?
