/ En Route to ArdeonaigPhoto: Macs Adventure
An awesome day as you head cross-country past Loch Breaclaich into the hills above Loch Tay.
Distance 19.5 km
6:37 h
518 m
505 m
This is the most challenging section of the way in terms of ascent and route finding so in poor weather conditions you should be willing to follow the south Loch Tay road if unsure of your route finding ability. On a good day it provides the highlight of this fantastic journey. Once you have descended to Ardeonaig you follow a minor road along the shore of Loch Tay to Ardtalnaig.
