  A guidebook to walking and mountainbiking in Scotland's Rannoch glens, including Lochaber and the Mamores, the glens west of Drumochter, the Rannoch moor area and between Orchy and Killin, including link routes between them. The aim in this series of books is to provide the mountainbiker and walker with information on an intended route so they have some idea what to expect on the ground. OS maps give no indication as to whether an 'other road' is metalled, a path or a forest fire break, or anything in between. Many bridges shown do not exist. Rivers are difficult to judge in size from the map, and a building may be anything from a pile of stones to a maintained bothy. In this series of guides, all is revealed without removing the sense of adventure and exploration. Gradient profiles help to assess how strenuous a route is, and each hand-drawn page contains a wealth of information. The object is to save wasted leisure time and enable the armchair explorer to plan ahead or relive experiences. Volume 3 - The Glens of Rannoch - includes Lochaber and the Mamores, West of Drumochter, Rannoch and Orchy to Killin.
