Day 5 Rowardennan to Inverannan

Today has been an incredible day! Great breakfast at Rowardennan Hotel and an early start for one of the most challenging days on the walk. We walked along the Loch side for most of the day. The start was a gentle climb up through pine forests carpeted with bluebells and wild garlic. We arrived at Inversnaid hotel. A lovely place by a huge waterfall on the banks of the Loch. Had a great coffee and ate our lunch. Carried on alongside the loch clambering over rocks and boulders and wading through mountain streams. Took time out to paddle in the loch and cool off! Eventually we emerged into a beautiful field surrounded by mountains and carried on for a few more miles to The Drovers Inn where we were spending the night.
Amazing old place supposedly haunted! We are staying in one of the lodges as the inn is very old and used just for the bar and restaurant.
Had a great dinner and early to bed as another epic day tomorrow!
Amazingly good news. Our formal complaint to The Buchannan Arms , the worst hotel ever, resulted in a full refund! Party on !!!!
14 miles today. Tomorrow we make the halfway mark!Read more
