This route is easily accesible by public transport, if you don't mind walking on railtracks. From Tulloch Station - a beautiful hostel by the way - just follow the rail to Fersit. Be carefull! Walking on public roads to get back to the station adds a few miles, which is only recommendable if you've got enough energy left.
