The beautiful view west along Loch nan Ceall from Arisaig near Mallaig to the distinctive outline of the distant island of Eigg. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/arisaig/arisaig/index.html

I'm in #FortWilliam and at a loss where to go. West to #Arisaig the A road is too dangerous for cyclists and there are no offroad alternatives for most of the journey. East to #Ballater / #Aberdeen the A roads are also a no go for cyclists. There are offroad routes but I'm not sure if they're easy enough to ride on my heavily loaded bike.

Anyone any suggestions?

If everything else fails I'll head north along the Great Glen to Inverness, although I was going to use this as my way back and I don't like riding the same stretch twice.
