- Loch Maree, in the west of Scotland. West of Inverness.
There is a Code of Conduct for paddle sport people. Check it out here, www.nature.scot/lochmareeaccess
The full route can be seen here at OS maps. The route was a circular (clockwise) route from the car park. I have tried to illustrate that where the route is close to the shore, it was where the wind had really picked up. Also, where the route prominently contours round the land, also illustrates where the wind was strong. Map link below.

The original plan was to paddle from Loch Maree, portage to Loch Fionn and wild camp at the causeway. But, it didn’t happen. Check out the video as to way.
@PaulMessner Just saw your Solo camping in snow & wind - Wild Country Panacea TESTED - nice one!

Unbelievable scenery, cracking video again!
James, thanks for plugging in while you unplug so the rest of us can plug in to unplug with you. 😊 Definitely inspiring-I’ll be taking my boy out for an overnight on a nearby coastal island, a short kayak out. Can’t wait. Cheers!
Cheers Frank, so glad you liked it. Let me know how you guys get on.
Enjoy and stay safe.

OMG Stunning mate - keep it going mate
Mate, glad you like it. I'm a fan of your channel. You do fantastic adventures.

@@JamesFleming888 Thanks for the support bud!! Loch Marree has been on my to do list for TOO long... but haven't found the right window for it. And definitely want to do it in good weather to enjoy it!!
I'm heading there in October with friends in our canoes... Really hoping we can find your campsite location as it looks stunning... Although up there you are spoilt for choice.
Thanks for the vid.. looking forward to catching a few of your others
Cheers for that Stuart and glad you liked it. Enjoy Loch Maree, take time to soak up the island hopping and have the best time. I'll be back, for sure.
James
