By bike to
Loch Builg or riverside stroll
Here is an
opportunity to visit this remote, dramatic loch. A total of 18miles along a
landrover track it is a slog, but on a bike it should be a breeze. There
are a couple of burns to cross which adds more interest. Alternatively, a
walk out and back along the River Gairn makes a pleasant summer stroll.
