  • We pushed right up against the boundary of 'getting another wild camp in this year' as we left the house on Dec 31st!! - Off we headed on well known bikepacking routes through Strath Ossian to Loch Ossian and Corrour station. It was another great winter adventure!

    Great views and great pictures. Trips like that on key dates of the year are always special and evoke great memories when you reflect back on them! Thanks for sharing.

    You bring what no one else does, Scotland in winter . I was on the great north trail last June , it's more beautiful in winter . Thanks for a great video and happy new year to you both.

      Thanks ascot! Actually not done this section in the summer but will surely get to see it at some point... Winter is great if a little harder... Worth it though... Happy new year to you as well.. would love to do the great north trail but would need to wait till I retire I think!! 😂

    Good video again! Thanks. This looks more doable than previous one ha ha. Love the area, been there many times with my bike too. I like to combine cycling with the train in there.

      Yeah significantly more 'doable' than the previous trip!!! - lovely area isn't it? - first time there though for us so looking forward to seeing it in normal seasons!! - the train is a great idea and makes it more accessible even though it feels very remote.. ideal! - Looks like we will need to check out your channel as well!! looks interesting!

      haha actually going to come out and say that summer is my least favourite season for camping.... there I said it... cos of the wee blighters!!! - when planning weather forecasts for camps I usually just try to make sure theres no rain.. in the summer you have to add a wind 10mph+ (or so) to the requirement!!! making it a more difficult proposition!

      @@hikebikescotland9121Exactly as you say:-]. Well there is quite a few bothies in that area too and they are usually not busy in weekdays. I am sure you heard about them. In a nice summer hot not windy day I quite like to enjoy the day on bike, perhaps have a swim in loch Ossian and then for the evening hide into Staoineag bothy for example which is not too far from there. I hate being shut in tent without the option to move around because of insect ha ha. But in bothy you have much more space to move around🙂
