About 1 mile from Badachro is Flowerdale pier and pontoon. Although not a favourite place, it provided an opportunity to fill with water and to shop for food and diesel. We rafted with a Gemini catamaran called Catflap and spent a while chatting with the owner and having a guided tour of the boat.
We did not want to stay in this busy place overnight and as no wind was forecast for the next few days, we decided to go to Upper Loch Torridon to do a mountain walk. We motored most of the way there. On arrival we were pleased (after the Loch Roe experience) to anchor in loads of empty space. In the evening we visited the hotel, which turned out to also have an outdoor centre, B & B accommodation and an Inn. So we visited the bar and asked about the route up and down Liathach.
