http://web.me.com/simon.willis/Routes/Sound_of_Mull_%28North%29.html Route One - August 2006. Launch at Drimnin OS: 47 GR: 556539 Routes Two - April 2007. Launch near Glenborrodale OS: 47 GR: 583620 Route One - At weekends it’s OK to park where the small passenger ferry unloads, but not when it’s operating. This is a short paddle but easily extended and best undertaken on a Saturday when the excellent fish-and-chip van on Mull’s sea-front is open. Route Two - A full day-trip to the same destination, but launching in a bay after the Ardnamurchan Visitor Centre. House building makes parking increasingly difficult.
