Loch Ness and the Caladonian Canal Walk, Scottish Countryside 4K

Description :

No talking, just walking. Exploring the Scottish Countryside. A nice gentle walk around Loch Ness, Fort Augustus and along the Caledonian Canal. Loch Ness is famously associated with the legendary Loch Ness Monster, affectionately known as "Nessie," which has intrigued and attracted tourists since the 1930s. Loch Ness is the second‑largest Scottish loch by surface area but the largest by volume due to its great depth (up to 755 feet). Fort Augustus is a small village situated at the southern end of Loch Ness, where the Caledonian Canal meets the loch. The Caledonian Canal stretches from Corpach near Fort William in the southwest to Inverness in the northeast, connecting several lochs, including Loch Ness. It was engineered by Thomas Telford and completed in 1822. It was designed to provide a navigable route through the Great Glen, avoiding the dangerous waters around the west coast of Scotland. It played a crucial role in the economic development of the Highlands by facilitating the transport of goods and people. A beautiful walk! Do enjoy :)
