Hi guys just watched your video, I’m just taking up bikepacking and looking at this route. I would be going over from Aberdeen and leaving bike at drumnadrochit like use guys, would be camping overnight too. Can you pass on any tips or advice on public transport etc and what to watch for river crossing etc. any advice would be appreciated. Thanks Drew.

Hi Drew, thanks for your message. The route is pretty straightforward to be honest. The main area with an increased risk is the route down past the waterfall at the end. The rocks can be slippery when wet. No real issues in terms of water crossings etc. The place we left Hamish at was good, no issues. When you go for the bus you must stand at the roadside and flag it down when it appears or it’ll drive past. Take cash as a backup with you for the bus, the card machine wasn’t working. The driver let us in for free in the end! Have fun. Dave 👍😊

Well done you two! Amazing adventure... Matty (from Adventure is made) and I are eager to do this trip asap... !! Question: You know the faster flowing section at the end of Veyatie, connecting to Fionn... do you think it'd be possible to travel back upstream? I presume by foot would be the only option as the flow looked more powerful than I anticipated...? Thanks for the help and sending much love to you both, Eze. EDIT: Perfect! There’s a trail there! 1.7km to bring us back upstream to Veyatie

Hi Eze, thank you for your message. 😊👍 Sorry for the slow reply. I think you could get part way up depending on what the recent weathers been doing. Possibly as far as where we camped. (In perfect conditions). You’d then need to portage past the faster flowing section then back in where it opens up into Veyatie. As you’ve seen there’s a prominent trail to a point where most people camp if they are paddling out and back from the eastern Elphin end. Have a super trip when it comes. Hopefully catch your video of it. D&L 😊👍🔆

Speechless with admiration as to the walk/climb you did, the bivvy you made, the cold you suffered and the amazing views you had. The camera work was a real treat; and the music eminently suitable for the two of you and your adventures. To top it all, you both scampered down the zig-zags like a pair of mountain goats and then made us all hungry by showing us how to assemble a mountain meal to be proud of. You must inspire loads of people to return to Scotland and learn how to enjoy adventuring in Scotland again.
