Fantastic historical tour. You need to relatively fit as it involves climbing a very steep hill and then spiral steps up to the top to see the fantastic views. You do get to break. The Monument was erected as he was given the title of the Guardian of Scotland (Braveheart).

This location was used for filming Outlander and Monty Phython's Holy Grail. Just outside is Deanston Distillery where they do a great whisky tour and let you sample some! Lovely cafe and gift shop inside. Coltswood Chauffeur Service offer a tour they can drop you and bring you back. You don't have to worry then about how much whisky you have had to drink! Booking through me and then discount offered through our accommodation.
