Marvellous Walk in Moniaive

Todays walk in Moniaive had been planned a few weeks ago but we were only able to go today and without John as he is still in Edinburgh. It was a perfect day for walking but very cold. The instructions we were following advised us to turn right at this cottage which to our surprise was called Langholm.

The early part of the walk involved crossing the Dalwhat Water and a climb to the top of Bardennoch Hill which is just over 1000ft high.

The summit but not a place to linger as it was bitterly cold in the biting wind.

Someone has built a seat beside this lovely tree so I had to give it a try

The final section of our walk was a lonely country road but due to it being in continual shade it was very slippy with lots of patches of black ice

And finally back into Moniaive for a lovely lunch in The GlenWhisk Cafe and Bistro. Very quick service and excellent food we will definitely be back.
