We agreed on Sandaig Islands, the fictional Camusfearna in Gavin Maxwells books on otters including The Ring of Bright Water. As I turned at Shiel Bridge, I had to slow for a herd of Feral Goat. They are common in this area. Headed over Mam Ratagan, through Glenelg and parked up near the start of the walk on the Arnisdale Road. Walked past the ...
