Today was to be a long day, 20+ km to Tyndrum, initially
along a river valley, climbing all the way as we leave the watershed of Loch
Lomond and enter that of the River Tay (there was a very famous poem about the
Bridge over the River Tay often thought to be the worst poem in history).
At Crianlarich the trail really starts to climb into pine
forests and proves to be the hardest climbing so far, however as is often the
way the rewards are fine views.

The pace Jo sets is quite fast and we make great time
passing just about everyone who had set out before us.
It was under the rail line and across the A82 and past
the half-way point of the Way, just out of Tyndrum.
Tyndrum is the biggest village so far, with a pub, a
café, a supermarket of sorts and The Green Welly (that sells designer wellies
up to nearly $300).
Twenty km in just over 3 ½ hours walking time
A curry of sorts (Mrs Jaspal has nothing to worry about)
and then bed after what was a long foot sore day.
