Typical terrain on this ridge of Cnoc Damh near Inveroykel

Not the worst of bogland though as there is a stoney base under a mostly shallow layer of peat - at least on the ridge.

After crossing the Abhainn Poiblidh, en route to Oykel Bridge

Shin deep, and fairly fast flowing, after recent rain.

River Einig

The shingle bank is exposed on the inside of a bend, the river cutting hard into the outside. The river drains a vast area of very wet deer forest. There are no high hills here and few visitors.

Ford, Poblie

Crossing the Abhainn Poiblidh by a ruined house. This was probably a shepherd's dwelling. Crossing rivers safely is a vital skill in the Highlands, bridges can be a luxury, and water levels are often very high.

Path below Druim nam Feannag

Half way into our Coast 2 Coast cycle, we were beginning to approach civilisation again. We knew when we turned east shortly, that we'd be heading for Croisk and the road.

Fording the Abhainn Poiblidh

This was taken after a really dry spell, It think you'd get your feet wet normally.

Duag Bridge - Loch Daimh track

Shown as a path, but a very rideable track which makes a good route between Ullapool and Easter Ross, the view shows the area of the summit of the pass across the watershed at c.230m This would once have been the long walk to and from the school at Duag Bridge for any children living at Knockdamph/Cnoc Damh.

Duag Bridge - Loch Daimh track

Looking along the road towards Glen Einig. This track links long estate roads running in from both east and west coasts over a low pass near Loch an Daimh. It is a very useful through route for unmotorised travel and becoming popular. You can walk or ride from one side of Scotland to another in a day by this route.
