Day 5 of the West Highland Way unfolds with a sense of excitement as I bid farewell to the quaint village of Tyndrum and set my sights on the majestic landscapes ahead. Following the tranquil glen, I am treated to breathtaking views of Ben Dorain, a towering peak that dominates the horizon.
After a brisk two-and-a-half-hour hike, I arrive at Bridge of Orchy, where I pause briefly to indulge in a delectable breakfast roll and rejuvenating coffee. Energised and refuelled, I press on, passing by newly refurbished wild camping spots by the bridge before embarking on the ascent over the hill.
As I climb, I am rewarded with awe-inspiring vistas along Loch Tulla, serving as a testament to the natural splendour of the Highlands. Reaching Inveroran, marking the halfway point of our journey for the day, I take a moment to appreciate the beauty of my surroundings before continuing onward.
The 10-mile trek along the historic drovers road to Glen Coe unfolds with each step, accompanied by the rugged beauty of Rannoch Moor and the towering Munros that line the path. Finally, I round the corner into Glen Coe, greeted by the proud silhouette of Buchaille Etive Mor and my destination for the day behind the Kingshouse Hotel. As I settle in for the night, I reflect on the day's adventures, grateful for the opportunity to experience the unparalleled beauty of the West Highland Way.
