Re: f.a.o. Joy - Rannoch Moor

I see the King's House Hotel is for sale. I guess that won't affect the continuity of the business, but worth checking if you are relying on it.

Re: f.a.o. Joy - Rannoch Moor

Thanks very much Jeremy for the link. I'm still dithering about this section of the crossing. Mind you I have a few months to dither before November. I'll know more after I've read your piece.
Thanks for the info Robin. Let's hope the hotel resumes its Challenge service under any new management.


edit;- I've just typed the link in but can't get the page

Re: f.a.o. Joy - Rannoch Moor

Joy -

If you google "Two Routes Across Scotland" it should be your top hit.

Have a look at the 2010 Crossing, day 6

Re: f.a.o. Joy - Rannoch Moor

Hi Jeremy,

Thanks for sharing details and pictures of your 2010 route.

I'll be starting from Kilchoan and following a similar route through Glen Raannoch and ultimately heading for Dunnottar Castle. Great to read about and see potential overnight stops.

I'm sure our routes may cross at some point.

Cross at some point?

I suspect we'll be enjoying a uisge beatha or three together before we even set off. I'm starting from Kilchoan this year, too.

We'll be going off in different directions, though. I'll be heading south on day 1.

Re: f.a.o. Joy - Rannoch Moor

I enjoyed reading about your 2010 crossing, Jeremy

Glad you liked it, Robin.

I hope you enjoy my accounts of 2000, 2004, 2006, 2009, 2011, 2012 and 2013 just as much

Re: f.a.o. Joy - Rannoch Moor

Got it now Jeremy, thanks.
Such an interesting read of all those other routes too. Lots of ideas to incorporate into possible future crossings.
So - Rannoch Moor - not a dangerous wallow then for a solo walker?

Well ... I wouldn't seek to dissuade you from carrying a coracle ...
