  • How to Get to the Ralston Cross | Epic Landscape Photography Views of Glencoe.
    Come with us in this video as I show you how to get to the Ralston Cross in Glencoe for some truly EPIC views down the Glencoe Valley.
    The cairn is in memory of Ralston Claud Muir, who was Trevor's brother and who died at the age of 32. He loved to climb in the glen (his ashes are here too) and he was a train driver on the west highland line.
    Ralston died on the 10th of January 2000 very suddenly after taking unwell on Christmas Day. He died from multiple organ failure caused by a rare form of Leukaemia, which he never knew he had.
    All his friends still visit the cairn today, and have a wee dram with him.

    Great video mate and IMO probably the most breathtaking landscape in the country. I’m yet to see one on a fine sunny day lol but that’s the Scottish weather for you eh?! I visited very briefly heading back from Harris in Feb but cannot wait to spend some time there next year exploring.

      @@LandscapesDronescapes I think you could be right there.... although I think the Quiraing could give it a run 😉👍🏻

    Great images , really nice mate, wish i had more time to explore the area when i was there . Mine was not a dedicated photography trip, something i really need to do !!

      @LeePelling It's a great little spot .... I know that feeling, when I'm away with the Mrs 👍🏻

    Far easier, I find, is to park at Jimmy Saville's house, then follow the old Military Road uphill (not a Roman road - Romans never got that far). At a cairn by the side of the road, turn straight uphill to the cross.
    That way, you aren't walking on the main road.

      @GingerCaptures fair enough. Yeah, parking is a nightmare in Glencoe. Particularly since they made one of the car parks buses only.

    Great to see an outake 😂 I assume that's the first time you've forgotten to press record 🤔 😁 I never knew about that cross so thank you for showing how to get to it. Those conditions are perfect for Glencoe aren't they? Really moody skies

      @GingerCaptures  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @tuftyhill Cheers Mr 🥰🙏 it certainly was the mood that made it lol..... and of course it's not the first time 🤣🤣🤣 nearly every vlog has a retake due to me not pressing the record on the Mic or Camera 🤣🤣👍🏻
