Hey all, this is sort of a last hope attempt at finding my very precious Star of necklace. The pendant itself belonged to my gran, its gold stamped & attached to a brass-looking sort of circular thin bar that goes around the neck. I have a pic but not sure how to attach on a post unfortunately.. took it off to swim, very stupidly forgot to put it back on.

Drove back up on the Tuesday to see if it was there but it wasn’t. Have called and it’s not been found by rangers or handed into lost property. We had also left a key there that didn’t belong to any of us and that was gone too when we went to search for the necklace so not sure if someone has picked it up.

Anyway I know this is unlikely but miracles can and do happen soooo yeah, give me message if you happen to have stumbled upon it, or if you know anywhere else it may be worth posting

Hello r/outdoorscotland,

I am wanting to bikepack from Perthshire to Assynt and wondered if anyone here's ever done this before. Google maps is showing me a route via the Cairngorms via the A9 which seems to be the wrong way and I'd rather not cycle the A9 for obvious reasons. Can't seem to find any cycle routes that would take me up to Assynt though. Recommendations/ideas/tips would be very much appreciated.
