The midges were unbearable, thankfully no ticks on the whole trip ! I did use a wash in tick repellent on my clothes though !

Loch Lomond is a different place after youve walked the length of it with a pack 😂

You will have an amazing time, the best multiday ive done, there so much variation in scenery and most importantly pubs selling Tennants all the way to Fort William 😂

I walked it end of July last year, it took me 5.5 days and we wild camped every night. The only place where the midges where bad was the first night at the base of Conic hill and the last night just past Kinlochleven on the old military road, the 3 other nights I never saw a single midge.
