Wednesday - Day off to see the area at ones leisure.

Thursday - Ben Hope at 3040ft Scotland's most northerly Munro - the name hope is derived from the Norse word 'hop' meaning bay.

Optional lower walks may be made dependant on the weather such as Bein Graiam Beigg, the highest hill fort in Scotland, or a moorland walk using the train station at Altnabreach.  Ben Kilbreck, another Munro, is also a possibility or some more coastal walking.  The leader will decide if any change to the itinerary is made dependant on safety considerations.
