Woke very early and was showered and ready to go by eight. The early start gave me the opportunity to take a detour on the journey to my next stop at Durness.
Travelling along the A836 to Altnaharra, I went onto the B873 to Bettyhill. This took me past the site of an old clearance village. And a memorial to Donald Macleod, who witnessed the destruction of the village.
I carried on through some amazing scenery through Tongue to Durness and Sango Sands Campsite. Sorry about the poor quality of the photo; it was pretty gloomy.
The road near Tongue.
The campsite overlooks the beach and there is a very chilly wind. In spite of that, there are a surprising number of tent campers who have come on bicycles, motorbikes and cars. Braver than me, that's for sure.
