West Highland Way Day 6 – Bridge of Orchy to Kinlochlen

Twenty-one miles today – Rannock Moor and Glen Coe. The weather forecast is fair for the day so I have unloaded the gaiters and over trousers.

I got to the B&B in Kinlochleven at 5pm which meant eight hours and twenty minutes on the track. I had a couple of ten minute breaks and tea on the summit above the Devil’s Staircase. The drop down from there to Kinlochleven was very steep and longer than I expected.

And when I finally sat down with a mug of tea at the B&B, “The Big Bang Theory” was on the TV
