Finnich Glen

We'll embark upon a journey whereby we get you to a mystical place, where we'll delve deep into forrest, enjoying the song of the birds and the gushing sound of the gorge underneath us, walk along the gorge, looking down at the amazing waterfalls and taking pictures of it.Then we will get to an ancient "staircase", where we need to climb down, using the rocks alongside the "stairs", then we'll gaze upon an amazing gorge between the rocks covered with moss, ice cold water, but a place looking like a haunted scenery out a fairy tale.This is Finnich Glen, that locals thought of being a place of the devils, an isolated and remote looking area, that gives you the chills and excitement in the same time.No wonder this place has been used as a scenery for the Outlander movie.For those brave ones, who want to get further into the glen, you can roll up your pants and get into the water (warning: extremely cold) and walk along and see an amazingly mesmerising world in front of you.

Loup of Fintry

We're going on a trip around Scotland's countryside, where we leave the noisy cities behind and drive by some really cute villages, where you feel like you stepped back in time, then it's just raw nature with lush forests and meadows, old fashioned stone bridges and walls, friendly sheep and horses giving you a farewell. After admiring all these beautiful scenery, we get to a place where we continue our journey on foot.We get on a footpath that is barely visible from all the lush vegetation and flowers and keep going until we gaze into the distance and see this amazing waterfalls far away, surrounded by greenery and majestic rock formations. We keep going until we start hearing the rumbling sound of the water and suddenly the entire gorge and waterfalls cascading down one after the other, enfold as a mesmerising picture in front of us.Once we arrive to the place, we roam around to discover the hidden parts, where we can take in the views and explore further into the depths.
