Final recce for the BMT finished
29/07/2011 by admin.
I feel I can safely saw without any reservation that taking a bike from tomintoul to Ben Macdui is only for the insanly fit and determined of hikers/cyclist. I got as far as the shelter by the ford of avon and bunked out around to the green loch - apart from the rain and winds and low cloud of the day ( just above the waters of avon loch) my enthusiam was pretty well drained after dragging the bike just from the lodge - but went back a few days later and finished the route from the ski centre including a recce around loch avon to finally determine the state of theose paths and left a report with photos here
And while we’ll at it, here’s a link to a report and photos of a walk I did last year to devils point from the sugar bowl car park.
