I am glad you showed us Drimmy woods. Love that place
Great episode Kyle, thank you for inviting me to take part!
Heyy Piotr! Thank you for letting me :D
Lived just up the road at Mains of Mause farm so as kids and daredevils we walked the gorge .Later drove the old road many times till I left Scotland in 1990,drove the new road a few times when we were back in Blairgowrie.
This vid is a hidden gem!
I love your channel man, I'm watching you from Moldova, I'm half Syrian half Turkish and somehow God sent me to your channel to tell you that its gonna grow crazy within a year, MARK MY WORDS.
Wow Kyle. Great video as always. Brilliant content and learned so much about Blair, and guilty of not appreciating where we live! No wonder, you have so many great comments from across the globe. I’m sure when restrictions are lifted, our local community and businesses will benefit from an increase in visitors and tourists, thanks to your hard work and dedication. Your mum would be super proud as we all are. Can’t wait until the next one!
I deciphered the 4 cup marks in the shape of a square to be the star system pagasus. I learned from Andi Kaulins how to deciper the standing stones from his book. The horse stone may also be connected in some way with the horse of pagasus. It is a theory of course I have
Really well put together episode exploring some of the more hidden gems that Blairgowrie has to offer.
Thanks Andrew! 🥰
When the river is low you can walk up the left side of the gorge from Craighall bridge. It's not easy and if you don't want to walk back the way you came it does involve a pricarious scramble which takes you out just where the old road opens out into the fields above the gorge. It is one of the most beautiful and memorable walks I have ever done. I believe you can also kayak down from B' o C'. I have also jumped the leap many times, when I was young it was often the best option.
Ali that’s super interesting (and tempting). There is a video somewhere on YT with someone actually trying to walk through that gorge when the water is low.
Awesome presentation.
Thank you Mark for such kind words ✨❤️
If only the Gairie burn was deep enough and the Dean water was more accessible I could paddle from Kirriemuir to The Isla then up the Ericht, or down river to the Tay.
my ma and da were evacuated to blairgowrie from glasgow as children during the second world war when german bombers were targeting the clyde shipyards,much more to their story but it impacted them deeply
