With clear blue sky we walked up to Beinn Dubh. It was quite hot and not exactly the weather we’ve expected in Scotland but we we’re happy bout it! We ate lunch with the great scenery and took a nap in the silence of the nature.☀️ Then we continued the road A82 deeper into the highlands. It got greener and greener every second and the mountains welcomed us with the blue sky and their yellow bushes!Read more

Up the steep hill we walked step by step towards the summit of Pap of Glencoe (687 attitude difference). We had to fight our minds to continue our hike because it the path was very rocky and covered with fern. We saw a little froggy and sheep. Luckily we won the fight in our head, the view was absolutely stunning and even the sky cleared up. The lake is btw called Loch Leven.Read more

Deep into the green valley took us the path toward the waterfall. It doesn’t look real at all, the intensive colors and the murmer of the fall. Even our drive towards Skye was amazing, all those colors and sometimes is a sheep along the road🐑Read more
