  • We didn't really know about this one until Alicja found a great book on Amazon - 'Angus Coastal Trail' by James Carron. Buying the book was the easy bit, we filmed the difficult bit! Follow us as we try to walk the full traditional Angus Coast from Invergowrie (just outside Dundee) all the way to River North Esk (just north of Montrose). Spoiler Alert: it wasn't as easy as we expected!
    Filmed 30th April - 3rd May 2023 in Angus, Scotland.
    Hi, I’m Steve, a travel reviewer from Scotland. Join me on my adventures as I discover my own country, often visiting places for the first time, so hopefully it's as much of an eye-opener for you as it is for me! Don't expect expert opinion, just a very honest journey of discovery. Sometimes featuring my intrepid sidekick Alicja, sometimes featuring adventures beyond the borders of Scotland. Enjoy!

      "Looking back at Dundee in the sun, it's beautiful..." are words I can't imagine being said.
      I might go with: "Dundee is the Stockton on Tees (or Hartlepool) of Scotland".
      Now for the rest of the video and memories of St Andrews where father-in-law studied and played a LOT of golf, and Arbroath where my wife spent her summer holidays with Grannie + Grandpa...

Answering to your question: no, I don't think I'll ever do that, that's why I enjoyed it so much in this video, I only missed the smell of the sea and the wind, but it felt like to be with you both in this beautiful adventure (also the everlasting fear of missing open pubs or café ahahahha). cheers!!

    When the white eagle 🦅 of the north,
    Is flying overhead, and the greens browns and golds of autumn lay in the gutter, dead.
    Remember then the summer birds on wings of fire, come to witness springs new hope, born of leaves decaying.
    As new life will come from death, love will come at leisure, love of love, love of life and giving without measure, gives in return the wondrous yearn of a promise almost seen.
    Live hand in hand and we'll stay, on the threshold of a dream 🌊💭

    New Patreons/subs here, Steve- hubby found you. We're in Minnesota (US) and adore your channel. You have an excellent way of informing with humor, and giving us glimpses to cities, countries and continents that we won't get to in our lifetime! We had an enormous day of yardwork that left us spent, and as we watched last night, I felt myself having tired legs just from WATCHING you and Alicja walking 51.5 miles!!!!😂😂😂
    We got a wee tear when you walked past Carnoustie- our eldest daughter is a collegiate golf coach, and in 2013 she was handpicked to play a Collegiate style Ryder Cup in Scotland representing 12 female college golfers from the US. She played Carnoustie, AND St. Andrews, and at SA, she shot an 82! (Collegiate players play from the men's tees, so this girl got game:-))
    Thank you so much for your quality videos, your guided tours and commentary- we hope every episode that you find the best chippy in town!! God bless you both- Jack and Kitty (Catherine) Gray

    …And if the hope for a Kebab and a beer is your only motivation that keeps you going, the vision of closed shops may stop you dead in your tracks. You need an additional bit of motivation. Alicia probably should have a cattle prod in her bag or so! 😊

    Steve, you're inspiring me now! I couldn't manage to walk even a fraction of the whole thing, but the area round the City Dock in Dundee looks interesting and might be within my capability, if I gave my self plenty of time! The bit between Broughty Ferry and Balmossie is probably just about do-able too, or between there and Monifeith, whose beach is a real walk down memory lane...! (I can't do the whole distance from Broughty, unfortunately - as I didn't have much energy left just walking from the town to the castle, there...).
    The railways stations at Balmossie, Barry Links and Golf Street are served by just two trains a day in each direction - a frequency that doubled after many years of just one a day, a few years ago... As I expect you'll know, such minimal services are usually provided at wayside stations the railway would ideally like to close, but doesn't want the expense of going through the lengthy legal procedures of doing so, and so they're known as "parliamentary" trains - intended solely to meet a minimum legal requirement in order that a station remains technically open. They did have at least a 2-hourly service running most of the working day until 1992, when most of the Dundee - Arbroath local trains were withdrawn to facilitate faster Aberdeen services in the run-up to the privatisation of British Rail - and for a dozen or so years, even the very centrally-placed Broughty Ferry station had only three or four trains a day. (Originally running from Dundee East (closed 1952, along with Easthaven, Elliott Junction, St Vigean's, Inverkeilour, Lunan & Usan stations), most of the trains originated in St Andrews thereafter, running via Tayport and Dundee until those lines were closed in the 1960s, thanks to both Dr Beeching and the construction of the Tay Road Bridge). I take it you're also aware that the latter is also built upon infilled docks where it lands in Dundee? Dock Street was previously right at the water's edge, hosting both road and rail traffic - as a single line ran along its' quayside, providing a physical connection for goods traffic between Dundee's East and West (terminal) Stations. Thanks also for the Auchmithie detour - I've also not been there but heard is is very picturesque - and now I know why! Oooh, those dunes at Montrose! (Apologies - it was a particularly memorable school trip, the best part of 50 years ago...!)

    I know you might not have been feeling emotional after that one but I think we both were at the end haha! It never fails to amaze me how many little beautiful spots are literally on our door steps if you just go out looking for them, I've discovered so many little things to see even here in Dundee thanks to your videos and obviously out with as well. A fantastic route and so many stunning sights to go out and see!

    hi Steve and Alijca. another great video and one that brought back so many great memories of my time gone by. I used to go walking as a youngster with my Aunt and Uncle and we walked many of these places. As a wee laddie (about 7 or 8) over 60 years ago it was a windy day and my uncletook me to see the big waves. All i really remember was walking down a hill to an old harbour and me and my uncle getting soaking wet. Imagine my surprise when you walked down that same path to the same old harbour. I didnt know its name or where it was just a memory .so thank you for that. it brought a few tears to my eye.
    I follow all your vids and ive followed your steps on a couple. Sadly these days im knackered but I do enjoy all your vids (and Scotts from T P and E) . Keep up the good work guys and lang may yer lum reek. Cheers again.

    Hi Steve and Alicja. Fantastic video. My wife and i loved it and some of the memories she has of visiting the East coast with me. I lived in Dundee for 48 year (I live in Warrington now - 12 year) and i have never heard of the Angus Coastal Trail. I bought the book, not started reading it yet. You both recently did the Fife Coastal Path and i had always wondered why their is no East coast path starting, say, Dundee to Stonenhaven. Last week, we were in Banff, Whitehills, Gardenstown, Crovie and Cullen and tried the Cullen Skink. We both loved it. She said it was "Gorgeous". The weather was great. Thank you again. Sean and Yvonne.

    That was really nice. Walking on beaches (sand and shingle) is exhausting. I worked in Montrose in 1980 at a frozen food factory (Raspberries). One very drunken night at a house party I was found at the bottom of a cliff south of Montrose blood streaming from a head wound. No other cuts or scrapes, nobody could decide if I had actually fallen down or was hit over the head on purpose. The people I was with cleaned me up and put me to bed. With the power of youth I was right as rain the following day.

    Steve, I just watched the Angus Coastal Trail vid.
    In 1998 I signed up for AOL and did a search on my surname. The Chapel of St Skae was a resulting hit. i learned it was in Angus which is why i watched the vid. I was so surprised to see it on your hike by Elephant Rock. You hiked right past the chapel bearing my surname! Heading to Scotland for my
    first visit in 4/24. Family roots traced to Tullibody. Was on the fence about heading to Angus but after seeing my pile of rocks I’m sure to stop there! Remarkable! In the vid you mentioned a pub that offers a 5 in 1, I think you called it, bbq chicken and a cold beer. Let's meet there in '24. Cheers.
