The Cowal Way 4-day backpack

Pitch at the Brack bealachA 4-day backpack of the Cowal Way (CW) waymarked trail in Argyll, running through the peninsula from Portavadie in the south-west to Tarbet in the north.

I enjoyed this backpack almost entirely in glorious conditions and I was very surprised to find nearly all of it totally deserted. Apart from locals in the towns and villages, the only people I saw on the route were two couples near Sruth Ban waterfalls and a few starting out on the popular Succoth path to The Cobbler.

  1. Interesting route through an area I know nothing about. Some great photos and a fantastic last pitch.

  2. Thanks Andy, my first time in that region too. A varied trail backpack through a new area makes an enjoyable change occasionally, it made me realize how much I missed it.
