Dun Coillich

Further north we stayed near Dun Coillich, a hill (572m) in area of community woodland and east of Scheihallion (1083m). We could walk to Dun Coillich from the campsite but as it was too far for Purdy we took separate walks!

A lovely place for a break

There were a surprising amount of wild flowers still around in the hills this late in the year, here are some.

From here we visited Crieff further south and also Aberfeldy and Kenmore close by.

At Aberfeldy, a lovely town, we hiked up The Birks of Aberfeldy (named after a poem by Robert Burns) to the Falls of Moness.

Purdy did very well!

Kenmore is a village at the northern end of Loch Tay. Set in beautiful surroundings, we arrived with the loch bathed in late afternoon sunshine. If it was earlier we would have gone in for a swim as the water was surprisingly not too cold!
