Day 10 (13th Sept) Gateside to Dalnacardoch (in the middle of nowhere!)

Long drive from Edinburgh to Gateside, but managed to get off in ok time - 9.30 am. Did a bit of unplanned off-roading at Dunkeld as we were following the National Cycle Route along the river Tay. Made such good time to our scheduled lunch stop at Dalguise that we went on to Pitlochry (just short of our scheduled finish!). Had lunch by the Pitlochry dam and (appropriately!) it's Salmon fish ladder. Lunch extended rather longer than expected so the day ended up being shorter than usual, but we still ended up 10 miles north of our stop. Long drive back to Lethendy Bank Farm for our night with the Bluetts. Thank you to the Fergusons for our bed last night.

Total distance: 56 miles!
