Hi Eddie 18.26pm. Ireland time Sunday again. Nice to see hear you ❤️ Glad you knack on those pies. Best wishes. Thanks as always.👍🙋🥰 kind regards Niall O'Connell Eire.

Thank you for highlighting this lovely wee Glen. I know it very well having spent a few months there studying it for my geology dissertation at uni!

Hi Ed, I just discovered you while trying to find something on the TV to cheer me up ( I don't watch much TV) Well ! that said, I am watching every episode of yours I can find. You have brought back my memories ! thank you so much I love your shows. You even talk like me Ha1 Ha! I live in Australia but grew up in Kilmarnock and I used to do all that walking that you are doing now. Our country is beautiful and you show it so well, Thank You so much

Wonderful video Eddy, and a great area to have the pleasure of spending a day out. The Trossachs National Park and its surroundings is pure magic, I am envious of you having the whole place to yourself, although it did look a bit chilly! Your music is amazing as well and adds to the enjoyment of the videos. Thanks Eddy, and looking forward to more adventures, best regards, Rob.

Many thanks Rob.

Lovely lovely lovely, those looked like fruit trees at 11:00, the rocks and stones keep the warmth of the sun a bit longer than earth does so is good for plants that are used to a warmer climate than we get in Scotland. Used to walk all over there when I was in the terries, was a great time if you forget the waiting for transport, weather, sleeping on rough ground in leaky tents. Midges, colleagues farting, rations, carrying the radio, wet feet etc.

It was a strange out-of-place bunch of trees. Wonder what they were doing there.

Good to see you out and about again; as usual, another good one.

Really enjoyed this video Ed,loved your music I miss Scotland so much ,I also watch this other video called Living The Sky Life it's about a couple that sold their flat in the city and bought a wee cottage in Sky very interesting and I just love the solitude feeling I get when watchin it,as I do your videos thx so much Ed

Cracker as always Ed. St Brides chapel was one i never head of before, not to be confused with St Brides church in Douglas ,Lanarkshire , which is well worth a visit. Great stuff pal , liked the wee song as well. 👍🍺👍

Great video Ed as always. I did this walk last year from Loch Lubnaig to Loch to Loch Earn and back. Lovely walk indeed. Wasn’t aware of the chapel. Well done for finding it. Sorry about your rucksack. I’ve had mine for years and still going strong-it’s a Berghaus. Not the cheapest but I would buy the exact same one if anything happened to it. Thanks for posting. And lovely music too.

A couple of years ago I was at the same start of this walk. A pheasant kept following me, looking for some food. There was a small place nearby for parking a couple of cars then, but its now been closed off. I'll need to give it another visit and maybe try the walk during a dry spell. I'll give the pies at the Mhor shop in Callander a try soon. Great video.👍

Loved this, Ed. Really enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing. Loch Lubnaig will always be my favourite loch. This is our usual stomping ground when we visit Scotland, but Dunoon is beckoning this time. Only 34days...Cheers again Ed. Hope you're doing alright. All the best.

@@EdExploresScotland That was somewhere I looked in to visiting after watching one of your videos, but I'm sure when I checked, it's still closed sadly.

I walked most of Glen Ample after doing the ridge from Beinn Each to Stuc a' Chroin, very nice. I have a non-waterproof DSLR and use an exped dry bag, clipped around my rucksack in a rolled up loop within reach and as soon as i feel spots of rain I open it, pop it over the camera round my neck and clip where the strap is, works a treat.

Thanks for that. I can probably handle spots of rain using plastic bags for the camera.

Hi Eddy, as you say, with forest tracks you have to be careful not to follow one that ends in a dead end. Great scenery and mostly good tracks.

A little wet in places, but great just being out in such an area.

If you continue on the track it takes you down to the loch car park with the cafe 😊

I think that's where I ended up. Should have continued, as the walk along the side of the road from there was very dangerous and to be avoided totally.
