Checked online in October 2026. Places marked "listed, not confirmed" appear on a public listing (OpenStreetMap, VisitScotland, CAMRA or a booking site) or have an out-of-date website, and could not be confirmed for 2026. Rooms on the Cape Wrath Trail are few and far apart, many places are seasonal (about April to October) and phone signal is often missing, so book before you set off and tell your host if you will be late. Bothies are first come, first served; carry a tent. Food parcels can be posted ahead to Glenshiel Campsite; ask other places before you send one.
The Cape Wrath Trail route works offline in Outest, with these places on the map and a trail guide you can ask about water, weather and the next village.
