Tour Scotland December Video Schiehallion Mountain Highland Perthshire

Tour Scotland December video of Schiehallion mountain on ancestry visit to Highland Perthshire, Scotland. This Scottish mountain is located between Loch Tay and Loch Tummel, 10 miles north of Aberfeldy. Schiehallion's isolated position and regular shape led it to be selected by Charles Mason for a ground-breaking experiment to estimate the mass of the Earth in 1774. The name Schiehallion is an anglicised form of the Gaelic name Sìdh Chailleann, which translates as Fairy Hill of the Caledonians. It is also known to some as The Maiden's Pap, or Constant Storm.
