Important note, June 2010:

A correspondent who recently walked the route tells me that a major obstacle has cropped up that will involve a complete rerouting of this section between Altgowrie and Contin. He writes:

"The route across the dam at the base of Loch Achonachie between Muirton Mains and Torachility (NH446545) is to be closed permanently from 1 June 2010 'for health and safety reasons'. The fence has already been constructed with large gates. No other obvious alternative exists other than the road at Moy bridge."

The closing of the Loch Achonachie dam to walkers is a real blow and for the present walkers will need to use the road bridge at Moy Bridge (direct along the road from Altgowrie) and thence alongside the main road to Contin. This is very unsatisfactory indeed and I will need to research whether any alternatives exist.
