Glen Douglas Loop

(download)

Lovely bright, if rather cold for the end of April Day.
The Glen Douglas Hills are another set that are pretty quiet. The more glamorous and high Arrochar Alps are a lot busier.
Saw quite a few red deer, a long way out, and a hill fox. Although I could see city foxes where I live most evenings it is still exciting to see a country one.
Started up Beinn Bhreac, walked along to Ben Reoch, don into An tSreang and then up over Tulloch hill and back down to the road.

Another walk round the Whangie this evening.
Lovely night bright & breezy clear blue sky distant hills a wee bit hazy.
2 kestrels playing over the plantation near the rocks and a raven circling the hill.
Quiet.

A few Hazel nuts to come back for.


The place where you leave the Loch Sloy road is marked with a wee 'cairn' easy to miss.


Very cloudy with no views at the top by the time I was half way down clouds had risen and tops clear.

About 9 miles.

I've gpxed this walk before: 09-05-24 Ben Vorlich so saved my battery today.

Later Edit, i though I had found a way of posting 2 voice memos from my iPhone along with photos, but I had posted photos, a image of an audio icon and one recording. I've added the second audio file from my desktop.
