Tour Scotland 4K Winter travel video of a Boxing Friday, 26 December, 2025, road trip drive, with Scottish bagpipes music, on a single track road past Loch Freuchie to visit Glen Quaich in the Highlands of Perthshire, Britain, United Kingdom. Glen Quaich gets its name from the River Quaich which runs through it into Loch Freuchie. The Highland clearances in Breadalbane, did not occur until the 1830’s, under the command of the Second Marquis of Breadalbane. In 1835, the factor, James Wyllie, had cleared the entire population of Glenquaich, with most Scots in the Glen taking flight by sea and populating lands in the new world mostly to North Easthope, Canada. A single track road or one lane road is a road that permits two way travel but is not wide enough in most places to allow vehicles to pass one another, although sometimes two compact cars can pass. In Scotland you may also find sheep walking on the road. This kind of road is common in rural areas across the United Kingdom and elsewhere. The term is widely used in Scotland, particularly the Highlands, to describe such roads. 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. By the meteorological calendar, the first day of Winter is always 1st December in Scotland; ending on 28th of February. Officially, the Scottish winter runs from the 21st of December through to the 20th March, When driving on Scottish roads in Scotland slow down and enjoy the trip
