Around Killin

11th and 12th July 2016

Two great walks with my humans in the Killin area were a nice way to end my holiday. The first was to Meall Clachach, a small summit of about 594 metres giving a great view across to Loch Tay and the Munroes to the north.  The walk was just over 11 km but the initial ascent from Killin is very steep and the weather was very very humid.  I had lots of water to drink and puddles to splash in however I think my human found it very hard work.

The following was a little bit easier for my humans and very easy for me and involved a walk alongside (and in) the River Lochay west from Kenknock then uphill from the valley floor to a track contouring back in an easterly direction.  This was very different to the hills I had been in over the last few weeks as you can see from the photographs.
