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

All support is hugely appreciated and it helps me keep the channel going!

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.

About Dave's Walks
Hi there, I‘m Dave! I've lived in the English Countryside all my life, and I love it! I enjoy walking, and couldn’t help but notice just how beautiful the UK can be away from the cities. I found myself inspired and decided to get some camera equipment and make some walking videos so I can share my walks of the beautiful countryside with everyone!
I mainly focus on small towns, villages, picturesque landscapes, rolling hills and mountains, forests and canals, all along the coastlines in England, Scotland, Wales, and who knows maybe one day further afar!

I upload every 5 days 11am GMT (3am PST) (6am EST) (4.45pm IST) (8.45pm ACST)

I use the free version of Davinci Resolve 16 to do some really basic editing. Mainly making sure the sky isn't over exposed. It's from Camera straight to YouTube. No cuts, no fancy business, no talking, just walking.
