Today I
started from Kinloch Rannoch and then drove over to the Pass of
Kilicrankie to see the site of the famous battle. Read about
Battle
of Killiecrankie.
This is the front of the Hotel with my Blue
Muckle big vehicle in front :-)
The
Dunlastair Hotel
is located at the head of Loch Rannoch surrounded by hills and is a really
beautiful location and within easy reach of all kinds of lovely areas that
I'll be exploring in the days ahead.
This is looking right and left while standing
across the road from the Hotel
This is looking over both sides of the bridge
across from the Hotel
More pictures from the Bridge
On left is picture from the Calinet offices
out over the hotel and on the right are the workers Dave, Jaimie and Ali
who without them the whole business would collapse, or so they tell me :-) 
And the corridor leading from my room to the
restaurant and lounge bar
Having taken this wee collection of pictures I
decided to head for Pitlochry where I wanted to visit Killicrankie where
the famous battle took place and here are some photos I took there...
and a final photo showing there are lots of
walks around the area. It's really a very beautiful place with many
species or trees and birds. You can likely see from the depth of the pass
that it would certainly be hard for the English soldiers to march through.
After this I wanted to do the Queen's view
which shows you where Kinloch Rannoch is situated and where you need to
drive to reach it and then onwards to Rannoch Station where you can
actually get a train... |
