The final day then. As mentioned yesterday, because of the taxi drop off yesterday we had a little bit more distance on this last day than we had originally planned.
The first couple of miles were just on rolling and winding tarmac roads – quite honestly only a slightly hillier version of the terrain we’d been training on. The surrounding moors and hills were just gorgeous.
GGW day 7 - Abriachan to Inverness 🍾
