Hill walking in Scotland
Getting out and bagging a few more Munros in August is a luxury we haven’t had for a while. It’s fantastic to be able to hill walking in Scotland again and to see some familiar faces enjoying a respectable, socially distanced Munro bagging week based at Fraoch Lodge. These are just a selection of photos taken by Andy and Peter during a glorious week of sunshine and Munros. All were suitably exhausted but satisfied by the time they headed home.
The weather was amazing (as born out by the photos) so we were also able to enhance the trip with some outdoor dining experiences and broke out the BBQ as well which allowed us to be more social than we could have been if stuck indoors.
To see the full selection of images (and original sizes) please go to the google album.
