Day 9 Kingshouse to Kinlochleven

Another wonderful day! We left Kingshouse early after a great breakfast and began walking through Starfall landscape! The sky was a crystal clear blue and the mountains looked stunning!
We climbed up the Devils Staircase to the highest point on the WHW. It was wonderful and not too bad a climb at all. Mountain streams and views that were beyond words! Carried on across the mountains and then a steady climb down into Kinlochleven. Stunning views of the loch and later of the aluminium works and water pipe system that fed the works now closed down.
Found our Hotet and were pleasantly surprised to see that we had separate rooms this time! Checked in but then found that one of the twin beds in my room hadn’t had the sheets changed!! Same in Gwyne’s! Head housekeeper was extremely apologetic! What goes on!!!
Hotels is actually very nice. Small and old but ok.
Walked from the hotel to an incredible waterfall.
Oh yes! The gnomes! Lots in the gardens here apparently to deter the deer ! Probably not worth planting flowers etc as they would eat them!
Dinner this evening and then off early for our last walk’! 😢😢About 9 miles today including the waterfall. 15 miles tomorrow to Fort William!Weiterlesen
