Cycle Steps |
1. 2 weeks is an easy pace, from the port at oban over to Barra, a beautiful found trip covering the island and stop for a day kite surfing. an hours cycle up tho the most northern port a little hop over and a night on E. then the longest stretch up with Tarancy on your left up to Harris and Lewis. Stornaway on a sunday is like the land before time and there is only one ferry back to Ullapool at half 3 so check your timings or have a plan of where to stay before arriving... the swing parks were padlocked, seriously. |

Landmarks/Sites to see? |
Generally a very quiet route, which is what I love but you have to be prepared and although there are little shops and stops along the way its an idea to always have some form of food to allow you to stop when you want to camp out rather than having to get to the next little village. the people are all lovely though and so accommodating. Enjoy!
