  • Craigmore sits overlooking Aberfoyle in the Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park, Scotland. It is a popular low-level hill with fantastic views that make for a rewarding climb. I headed out in May 2021 whilst recovering from a back injury to climb this hill, and to hunt down the Little Fawn Waterfall that tumbles down the hillside.

    We did this walk today, and we did the circuit in the same direction as you, and for the same reason (the waterfall at the end). And I'm glad we did it in that direction. The steep woodland path up the hill was muddy and wet, and very, very slippery - very slow going, but far better going up than down.
    But the stellar view from the top, along the full length of Loch Ard to a snow-covered Ben Lomond, was well worth the effort.
    Coming down again on the surfaced path was very easy going, and made for a quick descent to the waterfalls and the Lodge.

    We live along the road from Aberfoyle. When we are there we normally park at the Lode and walk via the falls first. The Bluebells in May are really something to see locally.

    Great video. We live in the village and this is a weekly walk for us. Not sure why I found myself watching, but it was brilliant to see the landscape we take for granted year on year through your fresh eyes. Thanks for sharing

    Another wonderful walk described in your appreciative voice. I love how you inspire us and this walk is something I would love to try. I'm not in that part of Scotland very much on my annual returns. I guess if I could do the Whaligoe Steps last October at 70, what's to stop me! 😄 Keep smiling and encouraging, my dear. You are so good at both.

    Hi Abbie. Lovely walk. I appreciate the way you share your struggles and are able to tailor your hikes to work for you. It makes it feel so much more attainable for people like me who also need to manage pain when hiking.

      unsolicited advice: I carry pepper spray not that I feel like I need it, and I carry an inreach in case I have an injury out of cell service. I carry a life straw and extra surgery snacks. a light rain jacket in Scotland any time of the year. never wear cotton! And, In parts of the US and Canada I also carry bear spray.

    I’ve been to Aberfoyle and surrounding areas so often but never seen the waterfalls. Thank you for your video. I think next week I will drive up there. I am about 2 hours away so not too bad for a day trip.
