I LOVE SCOTLAND! It doesn’t matter the weather (although sunshine is best, of course!), Scotland always delivers. This was a fab trip north of the border and we had sunshine too! This year we’d planned in the Great Glen Way, which we really enjoyed. I’ve written that up separately but think tents, nice weather, gloriousContinue reading “Bonnie Scotland 2023”

Great Glen Way 2023
Day 0, The Ben As Ben Nevis had eluded us last year after we completed the West Highland Way (poor weather), we decided to have bash at it again. The morning was bright but conditions were set to be poorer at the top, so we went prepared for this. With a good pack up, waterproofsContinue reading “Great Glen Way 2023”
Friday 16th – Saturday 17th Sep
A fab day for all! With much help from ToroTrails, I had a morning out at a local riding centre, Rancho Pancho. I arrived and met the owner, whose name I never got, and we had a chat about a suitable steed for the day. Another lady, who was Dutch (as is the owner) wasContinue reading “Friday 16th – Saturday 17th Sep”
Thursday 15th Sep
We resumed our trip through the white villages today, with our key objective being to visit the one with the houses built into the cliffs – Sentinel de las Bodegas. It was astonishing. In essence, many many years ago the people of this village realised that the caves they lived in provided safe haven fromContinue reading “Thursday 15th Sep”
Wednesday 14th Sep
The problem with having a pushbike stolen when there’s two of you, is that you need two. So this left us a little dilemma for the Via Verde de la Sierra that we were to tackle. The campsite was too far from the start for one of us to walk and one to take theContinue reading “Wednesday 14th Sep”

Monday 12th September
I think I got to sleep around 5am, so it was a fairly late departure this morning! The plan was very loose and not researched properly on my behalf either, but it all adds to the adventure! I’d read that between Cadiz and Malaga there was a route which took you thought lots of littleContinue reading “Monday 12th September”
Thursday 8th to Saturday 10th Sep – Sevilla
We arrived into Seville Thursday late afternoon and by complete chance, drove into the park I’d spotted on P4N by accident! It was baking hot and there wasn’t a great deal of shade, but we established a little spot near some trees and wandered into the city. En route we passed a UK van andContinue reading “Thursday 8th to Saturday 10th Sep – Sevilla”
Spain, Saturday 3rd September
Today’s first stop was Santillano del Mar, which we happened upon after deciding to opt for the scenic route instead of the motorway. We were hungry and ready for a second breakfast, so after collecting a map from Tourist Info, we chose a little cafe promising churros and chocolate, which we devoured with a coupleContinue reading “Spain, Saturday 3rd September”
Sunday 4th September
What a fab day! Altho we didn’t get off to the best start as someone decide to hoon around the carpark at 3am repeatedly honking their horn. Apparently it can be locals who object to those of us who don’t always use campsites. Oh well… It was a clear blue sky, full of promise forContinue reading “Sunday 4th September”
