Wandering Knight

Part 1 of my journey across Scotland. From Dornie I will travel 3 days across about 76 kilometers to reach Fort Augustus. My introduction to the Scottish Highlands would not start out as smoothly as one would hope for but as time went on things would fall into place and the adventure would really begin. Places I stayed at: Loch Duich Hotel, Dornie, Scotland is where I would start my TGO Challenge from. This is one of several lodgings in and around Dornie. I picked it mostly because I knew it was the sign-out point for the Challenge and that seemed as good a reason as any. While a handful of Challengers stayed here many stayed at other locations around town and were just as happy. Cougie: This was a remarkable place to stay. I had only thought I'd be stopping for tea and a scone but managed to snag a bed in the 4-bed cabin. Great food, conversation, and good times were had by all. I'd definitely go again. Caldonian Hotel, Fort Augustus: This was the first place I learned of that had room for me when I arrived
