    059 Inchcailloch Nature Reserve Loch Lomond

    059 Inchcailloch Nature Reserve Loch Lomond

    A short boat trip to visit the magical island of Inchcailloch just off the eastern shores of Loch Lomond adjacent to Balmaha. A wonderful day trip or even just  for a few hours to walk in the woodlands.   There is a small camp site at the south end of the island which must be booked in advance.  Boat services are available from Balmaha and Luss as well as Lomond Shores in peak season.  Many people visit the island  in their own boats or canoes too.

    058 Why visit Scotland in the Winter?

    Our clocks are back to GMT and the long dark days of winter are upon us. Visiting Scotland in the winter though can still be a really positive experience especially if you enjoy your winter sports like skiing and hill walking. Star gazing, renting cozy cottages with open fires, enjoying city breaks for Christmas shopping or celebrating Hogmanay can all be included as good reasons why you might want to visit Scotland this winter.

    Out geocaching & finally seeing the Northern Lights

    This week I'm out rediscovering the very enjoyable pastime of geocaching with Caitlin during the school half term holidays and finally after chasing potential sightings of the Northern Lights all over mainland Scotland and the islands I finally catch up with them in a local field by my home!

    055 Walking on the Rob Roy Way

    055 Walking on the Rob Roy Way

    Out on the Rob Roy Way



    I have enjoyed some great walking over the past week or so not only out on the Rob Roy Way where I had the chance to look at the Corrie Aqueduct, part of the Loch Katrine water supply infrastructure to Glasgow but I also visited the Loup of Fintry waterfall near the village of Fintry next to the Campsie Fells.  It was well worth a visit as the recent rainfall had really swollen the river levels.  We are finally giving up the fantastic weather and Scotland is now moving on and into the Autumn so at least we have the colours of Autumn still to look forward to.
