When I was 21 in the early 90’s, I went in search of the Shores of Loch Shiel. My 1st time driving to the North. I went searching for that Castle. It wasn’t til Years later, I discovered Eilean Donan Castle driving to The Isle of Skye. Before Internet, Web Sites, were the norm. When I seen it…. WOW! I had a “Highlander” Poster up on my bedroom wall for years.

Hello Mackie. Thanks for making and sharing with us all this voyage through space and in a way time also. Would you believe I was only a kid from a small town in the south of italy when watching the movie, and it was the movie that planted the seed of moving to Scotland in my brain? I finally moved to scotland back in 1999 and one of the first things I did was to scout for all the locations where they shot the movie was shot and I have managed to fiond most of them. My question would be if you chould actually share the coordinates of all the locations, if you have them? Many thanks!

This vlog series is passion. Only after I travelled along A82 through glencoe highlands up to inverness did I understand the sheer beauty of this land. Later I took the hogwarts express over Glenfinnan and lock shiel did I twig about highlander realising the filming locations then finding this vlog. As a welshman, I totally get it.

Just found ya channel .. subbed 👍🏻 will defo be visiting some of those locations 👍🏻👍🏻 i have same thoughts in historic places the people that have been walking about there

Hello brother, Chris here in Canada, your VIP club member! Just checking in. Been many months since your last video and hoping all is well and the pause between filming is just because you are enjoying life and are too busy! Hope everything is good, let us all know my friend.

I just pray that some moronic lowlife does not attempt 5 minutes of fame and attempts to cut it down.

It's great vlog,mate...had a shivers once play it..thank you so much for it.Its mental experience...bless ya.

I’m lucky enough to work in Culross Palace. I can assure you that the “veil” is very “thin” here, as it is in the rest of Culross. The former residents are our colleagues and we hear/see/feel them regularly. As I often say, “They loved it so much, they just haven’t left.” Same goes for me. 🥰

There is so much of me that wants to also, just launch myself into the mass of the bluebells and roll around - come what may. Bring me everything or bring me nothing.

Wow, woolly mammoths coexisted with this trees. It's believed that they went extinct around 4,000 years ago.

The only film I’ve ever watched and it resonated with me so much I have watched this film over 500 times and I know it word for word

Going there this weekend l!!

Amazing😍 we are going tomorrow with our dogs 🐕 love the music you put through it, what is this track please 🙏

So beautiful 😍

Thank you 😊, i love Aviemore ✨

the woodland training montage...so the horse is galloping along through a forest with Connor running ahead, that scene must be filmed next to a road because the camera is following the running horse at speed and so the camera must be mounted to a moving vehicle which is driving along a smooth road. When I look at that scene it reminds me of the forest area just outside Glen Coe village, so as you head through the village westward you cross a small bridge over the river Coe, and as you continue along that narrow road the river Coe is on your right and to the left is a forest area that rises on an upward slope that I think might be the location, I tried to have a look on Google maps and it looks very similar, I've been wild camping there a few times by the river and it really reminds me of the sequence in the movie, might be a long shot, but it might be worth investigating next time you are in Glen Coe, next time I'm there I'll have a closer look.

Superb video thanks, in several weeks time I’m staying in glencoe and the locations are on my list, thanks

Thank you so much for this. Since watching the movie in 1987 I’ve been a lifelong fan ever since. I watch it every year and scooped up the latest 4K remaster. I had trips booked to visit a few places in 2020, but Covid prevented that and I had to cancel my bookings, and haven’t made it up there since. So this has been the next best thing so thank you so much for sharing your passion with us, your fellow enthusiasts share your love for this movie and this series has been a joy to watch and hear from start to finish. Great job 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙌🏻

I took an 1100 mile, solo van tour of west Scotland in August 2024. It was relatively unplanned, but based around a single desire to see Eilean Donan Castle for it's role in Highlander. It was an amazing experience, with the Highlander soundtrack playing while I drove. My only regret was not stopping at Glenfinnan and standing on the shores on Loch Shiel; it was absolutely packed with visiting Harry Potter fans. I wish I'd watched some of your videos before going, but as I didn't plan for much walking, I would have missed most of it anyway. This video had me in joyful tears that you were able to do this - what a fantastic achievement. I now want to go back!

So awesome seeing beautiful Gask! My ancestors are from here, surname de Gask that changed to Gass in the 1500s. I appreciate your video so much.

So sad that these clearly innocent women were put through such torment because they were ‘different’ for want of a better word. I have never heard of this lovely lady til now but it’s of special significance to me as having taken much interest in my family history and being knowledgeable about how many of us ‘Adie’s’ there are, the possibility of being a relative of hers seems fairly high 🤗 that’s fine by me. I shall be looking in to it I think.

This is absolutely brilliant. Very well done on a great video. Such a beautiful part of the world.

NONE of those rock carvings are ancient. Every single one is modern. All the crap people leave is relatively a new thing as well.

My Higlander trip in end of march is getting closer, fingers crossed conserning the weather. If Ralston Cairn is not the correct location for the tower, can you give some information how to find it?

There's a mosaic in the Cowgate where the last "witch" was burnt in Dundee.

The Victorians made up the story about Pontius pilate to increase tourism at the time.

Sir, this is amazing what you are sharing us. I hope there is such a tour "Highlander pilgrimage tour."

Thank you for showing us the beautiful areas of Scotland and their history!

Well done!! brilliant series !, commemorating an iconic much loved classic film , now do “Restless natives” ;-)

It's heartening that someone actually from Scotland can be so inspired by a film produced by a British company, distributed by US publishers, directed by an Australian, with its lead a French actor. A timeless film followed by mostly failed attempts to replicate its success. At its heart, it is a Scottish legend planted in the 1980s. Hell of a location tour.

I live in Bridge of Earn mate, we used to have raves in the tunnels!! Who is that behind you at 3.18? Love your channel, only stumbled across yourself today.

Very interesting, deserves a visit. Good video, thanks

When I visited here I felt welcomed and at home 🫶🏻

The yew in Doveridge is only 1000 or so years old, but Robin Hood is said to have got married under it!

Really interesting buetifull place too

Left coins and flowers in this magical sundappled spot; it pained me to leave it💙

I don’t think I have seen a clearer picture on TH-cam Beautiful place 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Wow. Not only best Highlander film location video I’ve seen, but one of the best film location videos of any movie, period. Hello from Minneapolis.

Which route did you take for your circular walk? From the sequence in the video you appear to traverse the north tunnel in a southerly direction then the south tunnel in a northerly direction?!?

lovely!

You do good work

My ambition is to visit your buetiful country im at the end of the wagging tail of england also stunning but im 57 with a 16 month old baby and preparing my boxer for a title fight for the west of England title later next month so its hard to get time

Great video Dene 🤩greetings from Paul

Buetiful

I'm so glad I discovered your channel! Learning about my ancestor's country through your videos is so much fun, keep them coming! Btw, love love the accent.

My ancestors came from Scotland... Jacobites that were sent to Ireland and from there they settled in the Mountains of southeastern USA. As soon as I started watching this video I had shivers running thru me, it was like my ancestors inside of me let me know this place was important to them...

I went to Culloden Academy. Be were hammered with this.

I just watched a doc on Chillingham Castle, Northumberland, and there was a guy there called John Sage who was known for doing the most awful torture to captured Scots, including women and children. I can’t remember what it was called!! At the end of holding all these Scots prisoners, he told them they were going free. Except he led the adults out to their death by fire, and had the children all stand at the windows watching their parents burn. He then slayed all the children. The odd thing though, although this story is well known and talked about long through history. There is no record of a John Sage ever existing and being at Chillingham Castle. You should have stayed for one of the ‘ghost walks’ they do there. We went on one, and way back from the road, on that huge piece of land, everyone in the group heard Scottish voices talking and also heard fighting (as in battle). There was no one there. I’ve tried in every way to rationalise this, I’m not a believer so to speak, but, I think this may have been my one paranormal experience in life. (I did think they had speakers hidden and were playing sounds) but was later confirmed to be wrong. It’s a shame Boleskine House is under reconstruction right now, you could’ve visited there too. We wanted to go, but couldn’t.
