    Hi folks,

    Who's for another year of fun MINI Adventures? Let's get our first run of 2025 in the diary!

    A request has been made for a Glen Coe run but, given the shorter days just, it's likely we'd be heading back in the dark. With that in mind, I've put together a shorter route that will still bring in a bit of that Highland adventure while making sure we've got daylight on our side.

    Start Time: 10am for a 10:30 departure

    Start Point: Stirling Services, Pirnhall, Stirling FK7 8ET

    Lunch Stop: The Drovers Inn, North Loch Lomond, Inverarnan G83 7DX

    End Point: Stirling Services, Pirnhall, Stirling FK7 8ET

    Starting at Stirling Services, we'll head up through Callander and Lochearnhead before our swinging round past Ben More and down towards the northern tip of Loch Lomond. We'll stop for lunch at the oldest pub in Scotland before making our way down the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond and back across to our end point.

    Run distance: 117 miles

    Really sorry Ali, we are not going to be able to make this now as we will be in the middle of moving, Dave and Barb.
