What to expect
Possibly built around 1430 to replace an earlier bridge destroyed in the battle of 1297 fought between William Wallace and the might of the English Army.
14th century castle made famous in recent times through Monty Python. Outlander and Game Of Thrones. Castle is closed but expect a couple of local stories.
Scenic spot for refreshment and restroom.
Epic waterfall and ancestral burial ground for the local clan. Hear tales of a couple of notorious highland chiefs.
Killin
Ancient standing stone circle and a thoughtful delve into the minds of the ancient people. There will be no one around but you. Exact location is a secret.
Kenmore
Abandoned Highland village. Hear tales of the local sooth sayer and explore the shell of her centuries old home. Expect a walk of about a mile in total with steep inclines. There will be no one around but you as the whereabouts of the village are known only to a few.
Kenmore
High mountain pass with incredible views, just jaw dropping stuff. This is a very quiet wee road so maybe enjoy a wee dram of whisky in amongst the heather.
Dunkeld
There should be time for a wee meander around this lovely wee Highland town with Jacobite tales of divine winds before heading back to Edinburgh.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
