After Vlog #13, I camped up by Strathy Point Lighthouse. In my naivety, I had hoped to find some Aurora activity; however this is not something one can expect to see in summer. It was still light out after midnight. Disappointed/relieved, I went to sleep much earlier than expected.
I woke up and continued west toward Durness, stopping in for a bit to explore Smoo Cave. For just £4, you can have a short tour of the cave. Definitely worth a stop in the next time you find yourself at the far north of Scotland.
From Durness, it was time to start the trip back south. I took the A838 south toward Ulapool, making frequent stops along the way to look about. Sometimes, just from my window, sometimes attempting a failed time lapse in the rain, sometimes climbing over a fence to explore a castle with some sheep, and sometimes up the side of a cliff just to see what could be seen.
With my goal for day 4 being to visit Skye, I decided just to find somewhere close-ish to Eilean Donan castle to wild camp for the night. I believe I ended up in a nice secluded spot near Loch Dughaill.
