Tour Scotland 4K Winter travel video, with Scottish music of the snow covered Lomond Hills on history visit to Fife. The Lomond Hills have a rich and varied history. From the Iron Age are the remains of several hill forts, which can be found around the summits of both East and West Lomond as well as at Maiden Castle, a grassy knoll that lies between the two. The name Lomond Hills was first recorded Lomondys in 1315, and may derive from a Pictish cognate of Welsh llumon, meaning " beacon ", an element found for example in the hill name Pumlumon in Wales. Also suggested is derivation from Gaelic lom monadh, " bare hill ", perhaps adapted from an earlier Pictish name containing cognate elements. Officially, the Scottish winter runs from the 21st of December through to the 20th March.
