Few walks offer such good views after climbing less than 200m... west along Strath Connon to the hills of Wester Ross, east over the Cromarty Firth, south to the Monadhliaths and north to Ben Wyvis. The geological maze is interesting, consisting of over eighty of the rock types found in the Highlands, all named.

No difficulties on the route and there are lots of pleasant coffee stops... This walk may be combined with either of Walks 2741 and 704. When not walking Strathpeffer, it is well worth visiting; it was at one time one of the most notable spas in the country, its curative waters said to be the best in Britain. Partaking of the waters were Robert Louis Stevenson, George Bernard Shaw and Shackleton of the Antarctic.
