Wildlife boat trip with SeaXplorer

This weekend was all about the Outdoor Capital UK and I enjoyed trying a few new activities, including the superb Via Ferrata at Kinlochleven with Vertical Descents (more info about that to come) and a wildlife and history boat trip with SeaXplorer based at Ballachuillish.

Our tour guide and driver, Paul, was very knowledgeable and offered lots of details – and entertainment – about the wildlife on Loch Leven and Loch Linnhe, as well as some amazing – and bloody – history stories.

I’ll be blogging further but this is a snapshot of the stunningly calm conditions we experienced on an autumnal weekend in Scotland. The views were truly breathtaking. #ScotlandAtItsBest
