Re: Loch Riabhachain

Hi Sue,

I had a similar question for my route, that particular few kms of land 'funnels you' NE towards the A831, or SE to include Glen Coltie within your route because you're so close to it anyway.

If you're heading towards the Lochletter wood, perhaps a diversion via the Allt a Chlachain to the south and a cut cross country may let you avoid the area to the immediate S of the loch, then proceed via Breckry in to Lochletter itself.

If you don't specifically need Cannich, you could proceed via Fasnakyle bridge to the SW, use the track to access Corrimony by taking the track to the E of Loch Carn Bingally, then proceed to Breckry

The third option is to make progress via Kerrow as far as able, then proceed along the road for 1 km for Corrimony access.

Great, thanks for that you two

If you look here -

you will see that it is possible to follow the south side of the Kerrow burn and DIY it to the south side of Loch Riabhachain. I've crossed the burn about half a mile south of the loch before. There are lovely tracks through the forest going east after Corrimony and these will take you almost to Drumnadrochit.
