    Another great video. What a gorgeous town; I must visit! Really loved the painting, and you becoming part of it was brilliant! Too bad it was so windy to fly the drone; you still managed to capture great footage. You have such a talent to pair the music with the scenes, it’s truly remarkable. I’m so glad to have found your channel😊Thanks for sharing.

    We stayed in Kingussie during our visit to Scotland in 2018 and trekked from Loch an Eilein to a tiny loch to the east, towards Loch Morlich and I long to return. The fernweh for Scotland hits me like a ton of bricks when I watch your videos, thank you so very, very much.

    Thanks, great video! I am off to Cairngorms on Feb 1st with my daughter. Staying in a hotel in Inverness but plan on 2 days hiking from Aviemore into the national park. Any suggestions on closest parking spots to the hills and munroes please? I am mindful of changing weather and lack of daylight hours, so proximity to the car park will be key. Also, any ideas on best places to see wildlife would be appreciated. Thanks

    How much is accessible without a car?

    • @DHShields
      @DHShields  6 місяців тому +1

      Hi William, Aviemore is more than accessible without a car. You could get the train there which gives you access to the main town and all it's facilities (including the steam train). From there it's an hours walk to Rothiemurchus's Loch An Eilein (the loch with the castle). In my video however, the first loch featured (Loch Morlich) would need to be via a bus but if you Google it I believe there is one to Glenmore that would get you there. Hope this helps and thank you for the comment! Wishing you a great trip if you choose Aviemore, we absolutely loved it 😊
