  • Ullapool

    Walking through Ullapool in Scotland.

    I´ve arrived in the lovely town of Ullapool and spent my first day here just walking around the town and enjoying the little bit of buzz going on after a very quiet week in Assynt.

    Looking out into the north of Scotland and also looking forward to my boat trip to the Summer Isles the next day.

    One of the many ferries arriving at Ullapool and two days later it will be my ferry going to Lewis and I was already excited about that!

    All the views from Ullapool. The town has a lovely selection of independent shops and cafés. I really liked the Deli and went there twice!

  • Ardmair & Rhue

    Walking along Ardnair beach and to Rhue Lighthouse.

    I continued my drive towards Ullapool but just had to make two more stops.

    Ardmair Beach

    Ardmair Beach seems to go on forever, a beautiful and very calm beach near Ullapool filled with stones.

    I parked the car and walked down to the Rhue Lighthouse. A short and easy walk with stunning views near Ullapool.

    It was finally time to drive the short way to Ullapool and say hey to my new host, I stayed in this stunning garden.

  • Leitir Easaidh – Little Assynt

    Leitir Easaidh - a nice little walk in Little Assynt.

    It was just a few hundred metres from the parking at the Assynt woods to the starting point of my next walk: Leitir Easaidh. I could also have made a little detour and combined the two.

    I´ve never seen that many dragonflies like on that short walk – they were everywhere! The trail around Leitir Easaidh is suitable for wheelchairs and strollers or if you just don´t want to get muddy boots. It is a lovely walk with stunning views and as said lots of dragonflies.

    From one loch to the next one, who wouldn’t like to do a little relaxed boat tour on this one?
