Winter Road Trip Drive With Bagpipes Music On B827 On History Visit To Southern Highlands Scotland

Tour Scotland 4K sunny weather Winter travel video, with Scottish bagpipes music, of a road trip North on the B827 route on ancestry visit to the Southern Highlands of Perthshire, Britain, United Kingdom. The road starts on the old military road just north of Braco, amongst the Roman camps and forts that sit in the hills here, and head west up the valley of the River Knaik. At first, the river is not visible, but after a few bends and the first few farms are passed, the landscape opens up and the river can be seen in the valley below. The road tightly hugs the contours curving in and out around tributary streams, and then running past a forestry plantation where a small parking area offers a viewpoint. The road reaches the headwaters of the River Knaik, and the gradient, which was not really steep, levels off as we curve round to the north. Suddenly the landscape closes in on this little road, and the descent begins, with sharp bends under trees. It is a shame that the road demands so much attention, as the view northwards to the hills and mountains of the Highlands is breathtaking. By the meteorological calendar, the first day of Winter is always 1st December in Scotland; ending on 28th of February. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day. Find things to see and do in Scotland where you are always welcome.
