We set off early down to the road north of Balmaha and along the shore of Loch Lomond. Just after Cashell Camp Site, it started to drizzle so we stopped to put on waterproofs. We continued up and over the hill, which had changed much since I last walked here. The trees are now quite mature! Down to Rowardennan.

Continuing along the shore and then up the track, it seemed as if our destination, Inversnaid, was getting no closer. Just when I thought that we must be nearly there, there was a map indicating that it was another four kilometres to go. Well, thank goodness the map scale must have been wrong, for we covered the ground in just under half an hour. On to the camp site in the woods, but that night Sarah lsft us, he knee playing up. That's two down and four to go… and I'm talking about Explorers, not days.
