Fiona and I had a couple of hours to spare today on the way home from Inverness so instead of taking the usual way home along the side of Loch Ness we meandered back via Loch Duntelchaig (see photo). It's a lovely drive through an area locally known as the 'Inverness Lake District as there are several lochs, but Loch Duntelchaig is the biggest by far. I ran round it last year and it is 12 miles of wild, rough ground but well worth it for the views and bird life visible on the loch
