Walked solo. From Glen Doll car park via Jock's Road and path through Corrie Fee and besides waterfall. Corrie Fee is truly spectacular and the highlight of the walk! From the rim of Corrie Fee to Mayar and along the ridge following a broken fence most of the way to Driesh. Return to Shank of Drumfollow and descend back to start along Kilbo path ... a bit messy lower down due to forest felling. Weather cloudy and dry for most of ascent. Rain, wild and mist (sadly) from Mayar summit onwards. Time 5 hours. Parking in Glendoll is £2. | jamessteel100 | 11/08/2019 |
