We started our walk at Kidston Park with a view of Rhu Marina
Our morning tea break was taken at the lowest of the three Rhu Reservoirs
After our tea we continuing climbing above the reservoirs and could see the Rosneath Peninsula and the River Clyde
We had a short walk and were soon enjoying the sunshine on the summit of Tom na h-Airidh
We had a good view from the summit and could see a dusting of snow on Beinn a’ Mhanaich with more extensive snow on the distant Beinn Ime
There was a strong, cold wind on the summit, so we returned to the forest for lunch
We finally emerged from the forest onto a forestry track taking us to the Highlandman’s Road
