After a pick-up from Inverness, we head North, enjoying lovely open views along the route towards Ullapool. In this delightful coastal fishing village, our accommodation is based on this trip. Ullapool is an idyllic place to stay as it sits picturesquely on the shores of Loch Broom, with plenty of fresh fish served in the friendly bars and restaurants and regular live music most days of the week. Here, you will enjoy your first night on the Ullapool Walking Adventure.
We stop on route for our first walk of this 3-day adventure just before Ullapool. Our delightful riverside route incorporates some lesser-known and visited tranquil waterfalls and a beautiful gorge!
On day two, we walk on a gorgeous coastal path to the off-grid village of Scoraig, where we explore and learn about this largely self-sufficient and hard-working small community's inspiring history before taking a short, highly scenic boat ride back to Ullapool.
Our final day takes us North of the Ullapool area to walk to some fascinating cave systems, the largest in Scotland. On route, we also stopped at Knockan Crags Nature Reserve, which tells the story of the fascinating geological history of Assynt with a short interpretative trail that includes sculptures that bring the geology to life.
We then drive you back to Inverness, where it's time to say our goodbyes from our Ullapool Walking Adventure after what we hope to be a great introduction to the North West Highlands.
