Braemar to Tomintoul (and back) - Day 1,2

In May 2016, I returned to the Cairngorms for another multi-day adventure, this time a 60 mile solo hike to the highest village in the Scottish Highlands, Tomintoul. I start and finish at the village of Braemar in Aberdeenshire, heading out via Mar Lodge Estate and returning via Invercauld estate... 4 days, 3 nights wild camping and 3 bothy visits. Re-edited version.

Day 1 - Started from Braemar early afternoon and walked about 7 miles to Bob Scott's bothy where I wild camped for the first night. Met some guys who were staying in the bothy, members of the mba.

Day 2 - Walked 13 miles from Bob Scott's bothy to Faindouran bothy via The fords of Avon and visited Hutchinson memorial hut en-route.  Wild camped at Faindouran bothy and had the place all to myself.  :)
