Day 4 Report
Left Melvich around 8am and am walking alongside the Halladale River. I thought that I was going to have to get my feet wet, crossing the Halladale river, but just south of Upper Big House I found a foot bridge. I only saw three people until I got to Forsinard. Route was mainly on tarmac, but the road had a good grass verge, making it easier on the feet. There was very little traffic, better than walking on the A9. I camped wild about 2 miles south of Forsinard, just off the road, down a bank. It was only after I had pitched my tent that I found I was directly under a power line!
