Latest Walk

Ballochbuie Forest,
13 people turned up for this well organised walk around part of the Ballochbuie Forest.
Points of Interest
1. Queen Mothers favourite fishing spot. Brunuich
2. The stone dedicated to James Bowman who was gathering white heather,some say for Queen Victoria,
when he became entangled in a tall fence and was trapped there over night before being found .
He was taken to Inver Cottage but died a few hours later on 9 September 1885. Queen Victoria attended his funeral.
3. The picturesque water falls formed by Feindallacher Burn & Blackshell Burn flowing into Garbh Allt
4. A stop at the Cottage for a spot of lunch and a wee toast to the Bard then back down to the Keiloch
Well done to Duncan & Liz
