I didn't go too far today
as Blair Urquhart is coming to the hotel this afternoon with my kilt so I
can try it all on and see that it fits ok. So... I decided to drive
around the south side of the loch and then do a tour up the hill so these
are the scenes I'll be showing you below.
I would add that I was
impressed while starting my journey to see that the area had put up posts
telling you where each clan used to live and there was a note to say you
could purchase a clan trail leaflet at the Post Office.
These are scenes from the foot of the loch
A useful map of the area and the start of the
road around the loch
A memorial for folk that died in WWI and WWII
A couple of views from the road
I headed back to the Post Office to get that
clan trail leaflet
Inside of the Post Office is an excellent cafe
with some interesting posters
The above pictures are of the Royal Bank van
that comes to Kinloch Rannoch each Tuesday and Friday around 11am so folk
in the village can do their banking. Also went back to take a couple of
pictures of the Clan Posts so you could see what they are like and then
off to the upland route for the rest of the trip
Really beautiful scenery and I found an
interesting wee plaque on the roadside
You can perhaps just make out a rowing boat on
the right photo
The picture on the left shows a wee trail into
the hills going behind the trees... if I'd had more time would loved to
have explored what might be up there.
You can see from the clouds that it was a
beautiful day but very cold |
