September 14, 2024,Schottland - Ganavan Sands Runde( Nähe Oban)

We started the tour at Ganavan Beach, about four kilometers north of Oban. The tour led away from the beach into the dense fern thicket. We took a shortcut because the path was often impassable due to the heavy rain of the last few weeks. But you have a beautiful view of Ganavan from above.
