  • We're in Killin for this video, and there's so much here to do and see; Loch Tay, Finlarig Castle, Falls of Dochart and Mike's hike up Ben Lawers where our drone Midge gets to new heights.

    Greetings from Poland.
    One of your best videos. The opening drone shot was superb.
    I was impressed with the voice command camera. Didn't know they even exisited.
    Killin - Maragowan campsite looked lovely. Shame about the weather though. The pitch surrounded by hills and the river was beautiful. Finlarig Castle, Loch Tay and the Falls of Dochart were beautiful, The drone shots using Midge above the Loch made it even better. What fabulous scenery.
    I love old railways, brought about in this case by Dr. Beechings Axe in 1965. What engineering, all done by hand.
    The highlight for me was the walk up and down Bens Glass and Lawers. Midge worked very hard to produce the best drone shots ever. Brilliant photography. Thanks so much for producing such a wonderful vlog, made all the better by you three. Stay safe please and I'll see you again soon

      Thanks Michael, glad you liked this one, it's one of our favourites too, and my highlight was also the mountain walk. It really made my day when the mist cleared on my way back and I was able to get the shots from the air, it always adds a different dimension to the videos. There was just so much to do and see around Killin, and stumbling accross Finlarig castle was a special treat.

    The first time we went to Killin was in a converted transit van 45 years ago Jonathan (3years) fell out the van and split his chin lots of blood but he was ok and Pauline(8yrs) went for a swim in Dochart falls it was during the summer so not much water in. I am enjoying these videos as they are covering a lot of areas we have visited in the past, I enjoy all your post and I am catching up with lots of your old ones
