Day Three on the The Cambrian Way mountain trail 479 km (298 miles) with a total ascent of 22,460 m (73,700 ft). I think it could be Britain's hardest long distance trail. Its hard to say but looking at the map i think i started todays episode around the Mynydd Garnclochdy area i want give exact camping locations away. I was so wet from the rain all night i set about getting ready to walk around 4am just to keep warm. I was no risk at cold from the time of Year and in good health. So walked back up towards Mynydd Garnclochdy i think. The rain came back on top the hill. The rain was very bad so much so i could only see about couple of meters ahead what with the mist as well as the dark even with two powerful lights. By this time my cannon camera was destroyed by the weather i should know by now and my phone was useless take note people think phone navigation fine lucky i know this i used my garmin fenix3 gps watch with the track loaded onto so i knew i was heading in the general dir

Ben Nevis tourist free summit & shelter Britain's highest mountain


My pre summer solstice trip to Scotland June 2019.
Summer solstice countdown 17/06/2019
Last night i wild camped half way up Ben nevis at the loch. I wanted to get a early start to avoid all the tourists nothing wrong with tourism i promote it but i wanted to show you its possible to a have a relaxed walk even at the most popular mountain in Scotland if your willing to wake early and i am a tourist my self. It was raining early morning i  got away around 5ish i wanted set of about 3am i think but no way was going out in the rain is was below zero up there i think and i only had summer hiking clothes. Still i managed to get to the top before any one else. It was a different matter on the way down. I really wanted sleep up in the shelter but with the gear i had it would been very cold and even at night time there was still fair amount people still coming down the mountain. I think i may come back one day out season with winter gear and stop night in there. There was no views at the top this time so i have included photos from 2012 when i did the cape wrath trail i went up ben nevis in perfect weather blue clear sky and snow.
I made a massive mistake on the way back today i needed make it to Fort William bus station to catch the citylink bus to Glasgow or so i thought it turned out i got on the prebooked citylink bus a day early and they did not notice and i did not realise until i was sat in Glasgow bus station waiting for the national express bus to Birmingham when i looked at the ticket i realised i made a massive mistake and now i was in Glasgow a day early with no where to stay. What i could done is get the train to Loch lomond and wild camped there would saved alot money. But i was tired i looked at hotel prices i manged to get a travelodge  for £39 which is a very good price as was in city centre but still hell lot money for me but hey it was a great treat.
