We parked and launched from the layby just below Callert House – a high
spring tide so almost no carry. Just Emma, Paul & I braving the driech
weather but for most of the paddle the rain held off and there was enough
breeze, just, to keep the midges at bay. We paddled across the loch to the river
Coe, up under the bridge. In spite of the high tide we could not get past the
first rapid because the river flow was too high after all the rain.We then
paddled past the Glencoe Boat Club and across to Eilean Munde where we landed on
the north shore and battled the vegetation up to the remains of the old church.
There is a path which runs from the normal landing spot which is on the eastern
end of the island. We meandered past the rest of the islets seeing and hearing
quite a few herons then back to the north shore.
