Boulders near Loch Tarbert, Isle of Jura

A memory from an Islay walking week walk across Jura, from Gatehouse to Loch Tarbert and back. This view takes in some boulders (with a small reservoir of water below them) towards the western side of Jura, Loch Tarbert just visible in the background.

A nice view from an Islay walking week walk a number of years ago. walking in the area around Ballygrant. The Paps of Jura towering over the landscape and the Sound of Islay (just visible towards the right). Just below us a loch, although I’m not sure which one. I think it might be Loch Allan, if you can confirm or correct me please post it in the comments.
