Gold-Bonnie Scotland

Sunday

We depart and make our way to
Northern England for an overnight stay with
dinner, bed and breakfast.

Monday

This morning we continue into Southern
Scotland and make our way along the shore of
Loch Lomond to Crianlarich, arriving late
afternoon at Crianlarich Hotel for the next 4
nights stay with dinner, bed & breakfast.

Tuesday

We join the Scotrail train at Crianlarich
station for the ride to Oban. The line takes us
through the Pass of Brander and alongside Loch
Etive. In Oban we have time to explore the town,
have a look at the harbour, enjoy lunch and relax.
In the afternoon we take the train back to
Crianlarich.

Wednesday

Today we head along Glen Dochart
to Killin, with the Falls of Dochart rushing
through the village. From here we drive along
Loch Tay to Aberfeldy, where we have our lunch
break. This afternoon we head south along the
Sma’ Glen to Crieff. Here we visit the Glenturret
Distillery, makers of the Famous Grouse, for a
tour and a wee dram. Our return takes us along
Loch Earn and Glen Ogle to Crianlarich.

Thursday

We discover one of the hidden
wonders of the Highlands. A power station buried
deep under Ben Cruachan – the hollow
mountain. At its centre lies a massive cavern,
high enough to house the Tower of London. The
hollow mountain is unique, an underground
world on a spectacular scale, a five star
attraction, not to be missed. From here we head
north to Fort William. We have time to explore
this popular town before we are on our way south
alongside Loch Linnhe to Ballachulish and Loch
Leven. The Glencoe Visitor Centre is our
afternoon break and here you can learn all about
the feuding clans and the infamous massacre.
We return over rugged and awesome Rannoch
Moor to Crianlarich.

Friday

Leaving the hotel we make our way into
southern Scotland and northwest England for
our overnight stay with dinner, bed and
breakfast.

Saturday

After breakfast we make our way
home.
