Today we looped the loop of our bike tour with #Glencoe to #FortWilliam by the #WestHighlandWay and military road , which we joined from #Kinlochleven. There it's a quite steep path for 2km, on which we pushed more than pedalled - hikers were looking at us with a pitying or even worried look.
But once the 200m+ are done, great wideish track, rocky and watery, in an amazing #firstDayOfTheWorld landscape! By then hikers's looks turned rather envious ;)

I had a fantastic 2.5 week #holiday visiting friends and walking the #WestHighlandWay. Hadn't felt this fulfilled and happy in years! It created space in my mind and reduced anxiety so much, I could cry from realising the the actual happy me has not been lost🌻
Been back at work now for a few days only, and I can feel the mindspace and relaxation wane already. It only took a day for my back/neck ache to return so I'm really trying to not get sucked back into the stressed #PhD life

Took this years ago while walking the West Higland Way.

The West Highland Way arriving in Tyndrum. For centuries the village has stood at a major junction in the Highlands: it is also said to be the smallest settlement in Britain served by two railway stations on different railway lines.

I did it. Was so good to hike the #westhighlandway and to be in #Scotland again after such a long time. Now, being home again I try to make some Scottish morning rolls and square sausage today.... Which hike should I try next year? #Greatglenway #robroyway or something else?

9 days till I'll go to #Scotland and walk the #westhighlandway Today I tested my rucksack with about 80% of the trail weight. It wears very comfortable. And the ankle of my friend is getting better as well, so the #squirrels will be well fed...

12 days to go. Today I printed all the tickets for the journey to #Scotland twice. One set of prints will go in my mates rucksack just in case. #westhighlandway
13 days to go till I'll be going to #Scotland. Bingewatching youtube videos about the #westhighlandway to get prepared...
Its only a fortnight till I head off to Scotland and take on the #westhighlandway
Due to #depression and #anxiety I couldn't do any longer journeys the last 25 years or so. I wasn't able to leave my save haven at home for so long. Nevertheless now I'm really looking forward to the trip and the hike and I will do it! So good to see #Scotland again. So in two weeks time on this hour I should be on the train to #Glasgow

Continuing watching Iain Robertson #walk the #WestHighlandWay. He has a pretty torrid time in this episode on #Harris but a highlight is a detour via #StKilda. Which with his on the spot filming is amazing. The full series is on the #iPlayer. https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m001hcdf/iain-robertson-rambles-series-3-episode-3 #Scotland #WesternIsles #OuterHebrides #Islands #Walking #Rambling #Dogs

@Ellis_ramblings Random facts dazu:
- Highland Cathedral wurde von zwei Deutschen komponiert.
- Die Schotten waren von dem Stück so begeistert, dass es als Nationalhymne Flower of Scotland und Scotland the brave ersetzen sollte.
- Nur noch 93 Tage bis ich nach Schottland fahre um den #westhighlandway zu erwandern
