Holiday

Not exactly a holiday but my challenge to walk up Ben Nevis is now booked up or at least the campsite is. I didn't want to spend any money on hotels like I did last year when I went to Scotland, thought about Youth Hostels but decided on camping instead. Its gonna cost me £21 for 2 nights, I could of gone a lot cheaper but seams a nice place and not far from Fort William.

I am staying at Linnhe Lochside Holidays which is near Corpach on the shore of Loch Linnhe. Its only a few miles to Ben Nevis. Only staying a couple of nights (21st & 22nd June), I will be walking Ben Nevis on the 22nd and going home on the 23rd.

I am doing a sponsored walk this Saturday from Frosterley to Wolsingham, up onto the fells and back down to Frosterley its only 9 miles. My mother is setting off an hour before me, so might see if I can catch her up and pass her. She is walking with her friend who doesn't walk very fast, so should be able to, might even run along the tops.
