My Undiscovered Scotland : Crail Harbour

I wanted to take in the Fife coast and I wanted to pick a point that I would drive to as my start point, then drive back to check out the places.

I set Crail harbour as my starting point, as I have a love of harbours and boats thanks to my grandpa who used to take me out on his boat when I was growing up.

I got in my car and headed there, and when I arrived I knew I was in for a treat.

I will start by saying there isn’t much at Crail Harbour or its close surroundings, but! what is there is amazing views, a lovely wee harbour, a nice cosy little beach and it will put a smile on your face just walking about.

There is a little café on your approach down to the harbour, I have been here and done a review so have a read and if you visit Crail Harbour it may be a spot you want to check out.

Ben Lomond via the Ptarmigan Ridge – Scotland Munro Hike

I completed 4 Munro’s in 2019 and wanted to get to 10, then covid hit and things and life changed. I got busy with my blogs etc and added the ones I wanted to do to a big list.

This year I wanted to bag at least 2 Munro’s and now I have bagged my 5th…. Ben Lomond. I went with a group, and the weather started out nice then the closer to the top it got really horrible and a little dangerous but we all took our time and all made it to the top and bottom safe.

Elevation 974 m (3,196 ft)
Prominence 820 m (2,690 ft)

Conic Hill 4K – Balmaha – Hillwalking Scotland VLOG

Conic Hill Located on the eastern side of Loch Lomond and also on the Highland Boundary Fault Line, walkers leave the popular village of Balmaha for a short but fairly stiff climb to the top of Conic Hill, 361m high.

A few of my friends have done this so I added it to my to-do list, and today I decided to take it on.

The views from the top are amazing and the weather was good…well apart from the wind but it was 100% worth it.
