Tour Scotland short 4K travel video clip, with Scottish music, of Eagle Ridge at Lochnagar mountain on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit to the Eastern Highlands, Britain, United Kingdom, . Lochnagar or Beinn Chìochan is a mountain in the Grampians of Scotland, located about five miles south of the River Dee near Balmoral Castle. Lochan na Gaire, the little loch of the noisy sound, is a loch to be found in the mountain's northeast corrie. Due to its location on the Balmoral estate the mountain has many royal links, and Queen Victoria climbed to the summit in 1848. In the film Mrs. Brown, John Brown and Benjamin Disraeli hike up Lochnagar to discuss the need for the Queen to return to active involvement with government. It is also the setting for a children's story, The Old Man of Lochnagar, originally told by Prince Charles. The poet Lord Byron spent time in the area in his youth, and wrote the poem, Lachin y Gair, also known as Dark Lochnagar. 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. @tourscotland #spring #music #scotland #highlands #mountain #shortsvideo
