The Hermitage Dunkeld Scotland
This video is about The Hermitage near Dunkeld Scotland The Hermitage (officially The Hermitage pleasure ground) is a National Trust for Scotland-protected site in Dunkeld, Perth and Kinross. Located just to the west of the A9, it sits on the banks of the River Braan in Craigvinean Forest. It is home to Ossian's Hall of Mirrors and Ossian's Cave, Georgian follies built by the Dukes of Atholl, who had their former main residence in nearby Dunkeld House[1] (demolished early 19th century), in the 18th century to honour the blind bard Ossian.[2] The Hermit's Cave was built around 1760 for the third Earl of Breadalbane, who unsuccessfully advertised for a permanent eremite. The guide in 1869, Donald Anderson, dressed up with a long beard of lichens and clothes of animal skins.[3]
Also in its grounds are several Douglas-fir trees — one of which was the first tree in Britain to reach 200 ft 0 in (60.96 m) in height.[1] The Forestry Commission Scotland, on the other hand, gives its height as 194 ft 0 in (59.13 m).[4]
A stretch of the riverside path
Visitors to the site can undertake various walks. The most popular walk is the 0.75 miles (1 km)-long journey to Ossian's Hall. Wheelchairs are accommodated via a pass-for-all route.[1] There is also a link to a thirty-mile network of footpaths beyond The Hermitage to various parts of Dunkeld. These paths date back to the 18th century.[1]
Originally, the popular riverside path purposely deviated away from the river at about a half-mile from the car park. This was to build up the visitors' anticipation for the waterfall (the Black Linn Falls) that is to be found a short distance ahead.[1] Another path, running parallel to the riverside path, is wider, the purpose for which, it is believed, was to accommodate horse and carriages.[1] A stone bridge, dating from 1770, is located nearby.[1] Standing next to it, and appearing to be growing out of it, is a Cedar of Lebanon, which is believed to be the oldest tree at The Hermitage.[1]
Wishing Tree Hermitage Walk River Braan Craigvinean Forest Highland Perthshire Scotland
Tour Scotland video of the Wishing Tree on the Hermitage Walk by the River Braan in Craigvinean Forest on ancestry visit to Highland Perthshire. They say money doesn't grow on trees. But here in Perthshire coins have been knocked into this felled tree trunk using stones by walkers, who hope it will bring them good fortune. Local legend states that if a sick person presses a coin into the tree their illness will go away, and if someone then takes the coin out they then become ill.

About Dave's Walks
I enjoy walking, I enjoy watching videos of people walking. Decided to get some camera equipment and make some of my own videos, so I can share my walks with like-minded people. After looking around on YouTube, I could not find many channels that focus on the Great British Countryside, So this is what I aim to focus on. Small towns, villages, Picturesque Landscapes, Rolling hills and mountains, along the coastline.
I also Plan to do some ASMR-ish style videos. Videos watching waves crash on a dark rainy day, watching clouds pass by on a windy day in the hills, watching the sunset on a far-off village, listening to a stream trickle through the woods, a waterfall up on a mountain. Taking in all the sounds. Great videos as you drift off to sleep.
Filmed with a DMC-GH5 in UltraHD 4K 60FPS. Using a Panasonic DG Vario-Elmarit 8-18MM f/2.8-4 ASPH Lens.
Sound - Rode Micro Microphone.

I don't do any video editing, Its from Camera straight to YouTube.

Situated on a key route into Scotland, Hermitage Castle has been described as the 'guardhouse of the bloodiest valley in Britain'. Originally built by a Norman settler it was taken by the English during the Wars of Independence, seized by the Douglas clan and was the scene of a Royal scandal between Mary Queen of Scots and the Earl of Bothwell.
For those wishing to learn more about the Castle more information can be found here :-
I hope you enjoy the visit.
