Back out into the mountains once more, the first time I've been able to do so since September! This trip sees me exploring Gleann an t-Slugain, to see if next year it will be possible for me to climb Ben Avon (pronounced Ben A'an).

Tree Line Silhouette

Cycling along Gleann an t-Slugain the sun is very low this time of year, and barely makes it above the hills either side of the Glen, making wonderful silhouettes of the trees lining its ridge.

Crossing this small burn in Gleann an t-Slugain, I just had to get off the bike to get a shot of it's natural beauty.

A small cascade tumbles between rocks of a small burn which crosses the track I'm descending through Gleann an t-Slugain.

Bubbling Burn
Bubbling Burn

A small burn (it's what stream's are called in Scotland) in the Scottish Highlands, tumbling its way over and around the rocks. And so ends my trip exploring Gleann an t-Slugain, but I will be back next year as it confirms I can definitely climb Ben Avon when the conditions are right.
