Setting out from Arisaig for a walk round the coast.

Looking back to Arisaig harbour.

Back in Arisaig, the memorial to Czech and Slovak soldiers who trained here as SOE agents during World War II.

On a forest trail in Gleann Dubh Lighe.

Further along the trail we came across this young deer.

Lunch on Na h-Uamhachan, with a view along Loch Shiel.

Traditional native woodland on mossy ground, in the Ardnish peninsula.

Arriving at Peanmeanach bothy.

Glensulaig, another isolated bothy. We were glad to shelter there during a rain storm.

On the way home, I stopped to see Neptune's Staircase on the Caledonian Canal.
