The Wilderness Walk, a classic route on Mull's west coast.

Looking along the Wilderness with Ulva in background.

Only at low water can you get round this point!




The start on the Burg, setting sun and warm breezes, just perfect.



Andy, Nick and Liam went for a blast around the Wilderness, on The Ardmenach Peninsula of the Burg.

A beautiful evening was had with the sun setting over the Treshnish Islands and Coll beyond.

It took 3 and half hours to get around following some very thin and steep goat tracks.

This walk is tidal but can be re routed up and over steep grass banks to avoid the high tides.

An ascent from sea level to 500m feels much bigger as you ascend and descend back to Tavool House on the north coast of Loch Scridain.


This amazing walk can involve a slower trip and camping on the wilderness is something everyone should experience!
