Good walk with lots of contrasting scenery. A beautiful sunny day compared with the previous miserable days of drizzle. Sylvia sat in the car reading a book. Falls of Foyers and ravine very picturesque and interesting. Too many trees restricting an even better view. Evening visit to Inverness.
Hazards:
Guardrail now at '3'. From entrance at road follow path by hand rail all around to entrance of house/restaurant at '7'. Path re-routed just before '7', now no gate. bridge at '9' under repair, follow forest road from '13' to '16'. Yapping Jack Russell dog at '10'. Tree grown around metal fence after bridge at '9'. Colin took some video of metal fence and tree etc. Frog on road just before '17'. Goats in trees after bridge qt '17'. Hydro electric plant water inlet at '18'. Excellent view of Loch ness at '14'. Falls at '3' poor due to diverted water to hydro electric plant.
