Heading up to Connell Bridge tomorrow for a power boat course. Going to have a couple of spare hours of light in the evenings. Was wondering if anyone could recommend any routes round that way? Nothing too taxing as they boat activities during the day can be tiring..,and I'll be on my tod so don't want to banjo myself and scupper the course...any experience or lidl knowledge gratefully received!

Beinn Lora just up the road would be the obvious one, although for a pootle the path alongside the airfield is nice enough (might be a sustrans route now)
You can cycle along the back road to Oban, which is (was) all landrover track but nice to stretch the legs.
You can follow the road to the Dunstaffnage marine lab/castle (v important if you're into Scottish history) then take paths through the moor to Ganavan beach just outside Oban, again, a couple of hours pootle, but nice singletrack and some interesting rock features if you want a detour to try and get out of another RIB blast through the falls....
There used to be a Lidl in Oban, but it's been 14 years since I lived there, so can't help with more recent knowledge.
