Update – Myself and Pete Wimbush will now be staying at the Ochils Hut until the 24th. I believe he’ll be there from the 17th. Anyone interested in joining us, please just let me know. Hut places can be booked directly.

[Richard Pegram]

Potentially interested. Have you got many takers?

[Richard Pegram]

The link to the accommodation hasn’t come out right. It is Loch Ness Backpackers Lodge

One more trip booked: – Glen Affric/Strathfarrar 17th – 24th August 2026 http://www.lochness-backpackers.com

Note I have booked a bed in Glencoe YHA 15 – 17th April next year. I’ll be going from there to Crainlarich YHA 19th 22nd April 2026

Knoydart – if anyone interested:
Knoydart Bunkhouse 11th and 12th July
Saddle Mountain Hostel 13th – 20th July

[Richard Pegram]

Knoydart – I’m looking to book Knoydart Bunkhouse in Inverie 19-20th July then Saddle Mountain Hostel 21-27th July. Saddle MH Arn’t taking bookings until the end of October – useful as if anyone is interested in this trip you may want more than 1 day in Inverie – I’m flexible.

Glen Affric/Strathfarrar – Looking into Drumnadrochit Youth Hostel (Loch Ness Backpackers) 20-26th August 2026

[Richard Pegram]

On Monday I plan to book 2 more Munro bagging trips for next summer.
July – Knoydart – Inverie then Invergarry.
August – Glen Affric/Strathfarrar – Drumnadrochit Hostel

If anyone’s interested just get in touch

Thanks

Update – For various reasons I’ve decided to postpone my next 2 munro bagging trips to next year. If anyone’s interested:
19th – 22nd April – Crainlarich
10th – 11th May – Aviemore 12 – 15th Braemar
All youth hostels – which are already finning up.
I’ll probably arrange a trip to Knoydart in June and Ullapool in July over the next few days.
thanks

I’ve booked myself a bed in Crainlarich Hostel for 17 – 21 September.So no clash with the Poolewe meet – could just be an extention to that/ breaks up the journey.

[Richard Pegram]

I’m flexible but thinking of September or October. The only dates I can’t make are the 2nd and 10th of October. I only need 3 days but would be interested in a full week. I stayed at the Crainlarich Hostel in April/ May and found it comfortable, friendly and convenient but happy to see if the Ochils Hut is free. If you’re interested, please suggest dates.

[Richard Pegram]

I’m interested. Good Idea.

[Richard Pegram]

Any takers for this walk?

[Richard Pegram]

Does anyone want my place? Having double checked; the munro I’ve left to do in the area would be better suited to longer days than you get in Feb, I’m inclined to postpone a visit until later in the year.

It is a really nice hut and handy (I think) for poplar ice climbing areas.

[Richard Pegram]

Hi – Anyone else interested in this meet – hut fees need to be in for 24.11.24. Thanks
