Britain 0: Inverness to Durness

Posted on 13 May 20102 April 2021 by Rob Ainsley


I woke up to this scene from the sleeper train window this morning. Fresh snow on the mountains. Oh.


The nearest you can get to Cape Wrath by train is Lairg, 60 miles away. I cycled from there along Loch Shin to Laxford Bridge, then up to Durness (nearest town to Cape Wrath), where I’m camping tonight. There was lots of this sort of thing en route.

It’s very windy.

Miles today: 59
Miles so far: 59
