Loch Etive Reflections

Shot taken at Loch Etive, in Scotland, where it meets the roads end of Glen Etive.

 

Glen Etive is located "on the other side of" Glencoe.

 

Glen Etive contains a 7 mile single track road, that starts at the Kings House Hotel, at the start of Glencoe.

 

I used to camp regularly in the Glen.

 

Here you could camp freely anywhere you wished, unlike Glencoe where the only camping was allowed at the rear of The Kings House Hotel.

 

Glen Etive is fantastic, as it featured most of the Glencoe Mountains on its northern side, and had a river running through it (to Loch Etive).

 

Featured in the recent Bond Movie, with Daniel Craig, Judi Dench and that song from Adele (Skyfall).

 

Believe it or not, Glen Etive is only a 90 minute car journey from Glasgow, and this journey takes you to some amazing places en-route (you travel up the entire 26 miles of Loch Lomond).

 

If you go to Glasgow on a holiday or short break, hire a car and head North to Loch Lomond, Glencoe and Glen Etive. It will be the best investment that you could ever possibly make for under £100.

 

Trust me, it is unbelievable scenery, tranquilness and the most tuned to glorious nature that you may encounter here on earth.

 

I know I may be overdoing it a bit, but try it, and if your are fully dissatisfied get back to me, taking into account that we cannot guarantee, from one hour to the next (never mind day to day) what the weather will be like.

 

Just take a chance and go for it.
