Day 6 - A wander in Glen Nevis

A waterfall near where we started in Glen Nevis - as we followed the path alongside the river Nevis, we saw many waterfalls and rock formations on the way to the Steall waterfall.
Toby and George admiring the views from our riverside path...
As we reached the top of this hill the Steall waterfall came into sight - here Jay admires the view!
George is the first of us to cross the wire bridge, in order reach the waterfall and snack time!

Abi tentatively crosses the wire bridge, scared that I will step onto the wire and wobble her off.

Today we went to Glen Nevis, and followed the riverside path to the Steall waterfall and back again. After reaching Ben Nevis, we were all in need of an easier walk, and many of us still needed to pack our things and tidy the chalets ready for our departure...the walk comprised many lovely riverside views, and according to Mr. Starks many kayaking opportunities! Unfortunately, fairly early on in the walk I managed to sink my foot into a bog, much to the amusement of the rest of the group...and had to put up with a squelching foot for the rest of the walk. It was, however, a lovely walk and a lovely way to spend our last day in Scotland!
