Be aware that it is very exposed so have gear that is warm with you. Apart from the six warm days of the Scottish Summer it’s always a cold westerly wind

The Tornado Bagel on the high street is an excellent place to stop and refuel. The Pastrami Bagel and espresso were excellent, and the two ladies were delightful.
