The path between Fort William and Ben Nevis

Footpath between Fort William and Ben Nevis, Scotland
There is a path between Fort William and the Ben Nevis trailhead. Achintee Farm is right on this path, so we walked this way several times daily during our stay in the Fort William area.

Sheep, Achintee Farm, Fort William, Scotland
There are usually sheep, their baas aloft on the wind.

The mountains loom in the distance.

A path with mountains in the background needs a welcoming home at its end.

I wish I could walk this way everyday.
