06 I passed the guided group as we were
approaching the bridge over the Buchan Burn - so they were heading in the
same direction as me. They were probably doing the Merrick
via the Lochs route. I saw them go as far as Loch Valley. The picture above shows where you leave the vehicle track that we have been walking on since the car park. That track is also the section of the National Cycle Route 7 from Glentrool to Clatteringshaws. We go through by the gate that you see above and then traverse the face of the hill upwards by the dyke. In the pictures below you can see the guided group following me. In the bottom picture you can see the gate where we left the vehicle track. There is a quite easily followed path right up to Loch Enoch though there are plenty of boulders to cross and plenty of wet ground even on a fine day like this - and that after some 10 days of dry weather which had been getting up into the 20's Celsius most days. |
