Day 11: Melvick to Crask

Day 11: Melvick to Crask

  • Today’s mileage:  50.4 miles
  • Total mileage:    387.3 miles
  • Desasters:  none ?

Yesterday’s short day threw our plan out the window. We had a rethink over breakfast…

What a difference the weather makes.  Dry & little wind today so the new plan was to get some miles done. The options were Altnaharra, Crask or (at a push) Lairg. Several phone calls later and were booked into the Crask Inn. We started off about 9am.

Not much to tell really – pleasent and uneventful days cycling through beautiful countryside.  As with all phone photos they don’t do the scenery justice.

Around Betty Hill…
On the road side at Betty Hill
