Great effort on the trip mate!! It will always be there to conquer another day!!
Can I pick your brains a bit please?
I am looking to do a bit of walking and 7-8 days wild camping next year, on the west highland way did you come across many places that would be suitable for hammock camping? I dont fancy the idea of ground dwelling lol.
Cheers
Steve
Ive never hammocked myself, so im not sure exactly what you need, but roughly.
For the length of Loch Lomond there were not all that many decent flat places to pitch my tent amongst the trees, as it was either on a slope or just not big enough of a clear ground space. Though you would manage if absolutely had to in most bits.
But for hammocking i think the possibilities would be pretty endless tbh, as your pretty much in the trees for the entire length of the loch.
After that i cant really remember. The next proper forested area you enter is the section between Crianlarich and Tyndrum. There are still alot of trees between Iverarnan and that section, but i cant mind what it would be like for hammocking.
Afraid i cant be much more help than that, but im sure someone else will be along to help
