Old Packhorse Bridge in Carrbridge

November 21, 2013 By Ron 13 Comments

The old packhorse bridge in Carrbridge in the Cairngorms National Park is the oldest stone bridge in the Highlands. The plaque near the viewpoint reads as follows: "At the beginning of the eighteenth century, to the inconvenience of both travellers and local people, there was no point at which the River Dulnain could be crossed when it was in spate, and burials at the Church of Duthil were often delayed. Brigadier-General Alexander Grant of Grant, Clan Chief, commissioned John Niccelsone, a mason from Ballindaloch, to build a bridge at Lynne of Dalrachney. Built between May and November … [Read more...] about Old Packhorse Bridge in Carrbridge

Hebrides Islands on the Edge – A Photographic Journey

July 1, 2013 By Ron Leave a Comment

Early in May 2013 the BBC broadcasted the stunning television series on the Scottish Hebridean islands titled "Hebrides Islands on the Edge". The first run however was shown on BBC Scotland only but I've read that on Thursday 11th of July at 9pm the series will be shown on BBC meaning that anyone in the UK and in other countries can see this amazing documentary as well. Being a island hopper myself I thought I'd share some of my pictures and memories of the Hebridean Isles of Scotland. My travels have brought me to quite a few islands so far: Islay, Jura, Gigha, Colonsay, Mull, Rum, Seil, … [Read more...] about Hebrides Islands on the Edge – A Photographic Journey

The Pretty Village of Crail in East Neuk of Fife

November 3, 2012 By Ron Leave a Comment

During our spring tour when we travelled Scotland in a Motorhome, we pretty much covered the entire country, we returned south via Beauly and Aberdeenshire. At a campsite in Tarland, east of Aberdeen, we had a nice chat with someone and he told us to if we were to head south to visit the village of Crail, just south of St. Andrews. Now St. Andrews was on our "To Do List" but I had never heard of Crail. So the next day we had quite a long drive ahead, from the campsite at Tarland via Aberdeen and Stonehaven, where we visited Dunnotar Castle, all the way south to Dundee and St. Andrews. We … [Read more...] about The Pretty Village of Crail in East Neuk of Fife

Scotland in a Motorhome Pictures and Information

August 29, 2012 By Ron Leave a Comment

We've been on a stunningly beautiful trip in the spring of 2012. We've toured the entire west coast of Scotland in a motorhome, travelled well over 2,000 miles, took over 4,000 pictures, been to 17 campsites and had the best of times ever in Scotland. And there you are, four weeks later, with so many beautiful memories and a "homesick feeling" because it was too good to be true, and if we had the choice we would go back instantly. This motorhome thing was our first holiday this way, we rented one to see if this would be the thing for us and it is, in fact it is much more than that, I could … [Read more...] about Scotland in a Motorhome Pictures and Information

Beautiful Scottish Mountain Pictures by Ela

November 20, 2011 By Ron Leave a Comment

A few weeks ago I found a blog, Around Scotland, with beautiful views of the Scottish Mountains, taken not from the glens but from high up in the hills. Due to a wee injury in my lower back I can't make such trips myself anymore which is why I enjoyed these breathtaking pictures even more. After a closer examination I also found out that the pictures represented places where I've been myself such as Rannoch Moor, The Kings House Hotel, Glen Coe and Glen Etive and my interest was raised even more. Curious as I am I contacted the owner of the website to find out more about the person behind … [Read more...] about Beautiful Scottish Mountain Pictures by Ela

Stunning New Pages on Scotland Info

November 10, 2011 By Ron Leave a Comment

Over the years I've taken thousands of pictures and visited many parts of Scotland and most of these places made a lasting impression, both in my mind and in harddisk space as pictures on my computer. Some of these images and memories have found a place on the current Scotland Info Website pages but a lot of them haven't, but that is about to change. I'm quite proud to announce a new section on the Scotland Info website titled Scotland Feature Pages. These pages will be dedicated to the most beautiful places I've been to in Scotland and it doesn't come as a surprise that this will eventually … [Read more...] about Stunning New Pages on Scotland Info
