    If you are heading north up the A82 towards Glen Coe and Fort William, it's worth pausing at Luss to stretch your legs. Join me for a 1 mile walk through the village down to Loch Lomond and then passing the church and beside the babbling river.
    The village of Luss
    Built in the early 19th century to house workers from the local slate quarry,
    Luss is considered a model village and has been described as 'the most beautiful village in Scotland'. You may recognise it from the 1980's tv show 'take the high road'. Take a stroll down the street to Loch Lomond and sit on the shore and soak up the stunning scenery.
    Loch Lomond
    Loch Lomond is the largest freshwater lake in Britain, it's 24 miles long and 600ft deep at its deepest point near Tarbet. During the last ice age the loch was a glacier heading down the valley and then fanning out with the rocks and islands at its southern end formed by terminal moraine as the ice retreated.
    The Church
    This is an ancient site and a church has stood here since 510AD, the current church dates from 1875 built by Sir James Colquhoun in memory of his father who drowned, the church roof resembles an up turned boat.
    Hope you enjoy the video and it inspires you to pay a visit.

    Lovely went a few years ago, stayed on a campsite a short walk away from Luss, nice to see it again! : ) Did you see the Viking hog stones in the churchyard? Some fantastic old headstones there. Glencoe was my second favorite area after Skye! Great volg look forward to the next one!

      I saw what looked like a couple of ancient stones yes. I love Scotland and would love to explore and film all around eventually
