WILD WANDERINGS
Adventurer Geoff Allan has hiked to each and every Scottish bothy. Here, he chooses his ultimate weekend walks taking in the remote hideaways...
Best for… easy access For the perfect bothy adventure that doesn’t require a car, utilise the worldclass West Highland Railway line and take the train to Corrour Station - made famous in the film Trainspotting. From there, head down to Loch Treig and round to the sweeping glen of the Abhainn Rath, north of Rannoch Moor. Staoineag Bothy stands on a rocky prow above the river and is the ideal location to go off-grid, escaping overnight the urgent pulse of modern life. Return the next day the way you walked in, back to Corrour Station and the welcome embrace of the Station House Café.
