The Knoydart Peninsula and The Rough Bounds is an inaccessible and rough
part of Western Scotland. There are only two access points: By ferry to
Inverie (which has the distinction of Britain's remotest pub) or on foot
by way of Kinloch Hourn using the path network built by deer stalkers.
The area has a dark history, the emptiness of the lands today are mainly
due to the Highland Clearances when tenants of the estate were forcibly
evicted from their homes.
Photographs from one visit
In May 2004 we completed a nine day expedition in the
Knoydart Peninsula, starting and finishing at Kinloch Hourn. Along the
way we climbed Ladhar Bheinn and stopped off for a pint at The Old
Forge, which is Britain's most remote pub. |
