Loch Venachar sits in the heart of the Scottish Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park. This 12 mile circular low-level walk around its shores has a lot to offer, from ancient woodland and babbling brooks, the Great Trossachs Trail, part of the Rob Roy Way, bluebells, bridges and more.

Preaching to the choir here I think, regarding the litter. When I was in school, here in the U.S. they did a massive national campaign against roadside litter and it was fairly effective. It taught a whole generation. We need to do it again! It is possible to change how people behave but it takes a lot of effort and resources. Now on trails I try to always have a small bag with me to pick up things that backpackers drop inadvertently, because any of us might do it - a snack wrapper, lip balm, etc. Hey if you really want to see red squirrels, come to Alaska! You will have more than enough.

I needed this today....dealing with a bad bout of chronic pain. Sleep deprived and of course you can't forget the mental health side that goes along with it all. Watching these videos gives me hope, and always makes me smile and forget about the pain. Tnx for taking us along Abbie

So sorry you're suffering. Sending hugs 🫂

Wow that Gorse was really vivid, popping like, Whenever I'm near the coast , usually family holidays I love gorse it sets the scene for a British seaside holiday Cracking video Abbie you seem to show so much of what's around you on your travels. Much appreciated.🌄

Thank you so much Abbie your smile makes me smile xxx

Hi Abbie and thanks for another inspiring video ,I love watching your adventures and your never ending enthusiasm for the great outdoors . My plan was to start walking as often as possible on retirement as I was always too knackered from working but unfortunately I discovered I had developed a brain tumor that needed immediate attention , thankfully it was removed and I'm here I thank God for that but unfortunately it has left me disabled and as such struggle to walk full stop because of the damage to my cerebellum . So as such it put paid to all my plans . But!! Thankfully I found your videos and adventures to watch that we can all join you on and it has been a blessing in disguise to myself , alleviating dark moments and all the bad thoughts that go hand in hand with it ,so in a different way bless you you're helping me on my journey walking all the magnificent places that I'd planned to visit and walk as we can go along with you warts and all and it really does calm me down internally for the better which I will always be forever grateful . The one thing I can't experience and sorely miss are the wonderful smells of the countryside but I can imagine , thanks for it all Abbie 😊👍

Sometimes, sorry to say, I don’t watch for a while and then I do and I remember how lovely your videos are, full of interesting history bits and humanity…happy days back at you! Come to the Sierra! See the desert bloom! Walk amongst the redwoods! We’d love to have you visit…California.

You are such a lovely person, and your video style is so great, really relaxing to watch and listen to. Keep being you, you're an inspiration 💛

We are planning on Scotland this year have taken some notes from your video. Thank you.

@MagicaLucem Год назад

Really lovely to see the outside world and you zooming about in it. It's just too exhausting just watching. Pass me another cuppa

@AScottishOdyssey 11 месяцев назад

I love exploring that part of Scotland. It's often overlooked by people when they visit Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park. I totally agree with you. It's essential for people to get out to explore the natural world, but the arseholes who do the damage make it so much more difficult. It is heartbreaking.

@philfletcher3434 Год назад

Like I've said before, there should be an archive of your videos in chronological order kept for posterity; I'm not quite sure where they should be kept but they're a valuable record of what the human spirit can accomplish and endure.

Love seeing you in my "local" area

@lisawalker7447 Год назад

Hi Abbie Only discovered your channel a couple of weeks ago. Really enjoying your adventures, especially through the Lake District and Scotland. Have you ever hiked in Sweden? We've been to the High Coast, and it's beautiful. Watching your channel makes me think this is something you'd enjoy.

@AbbieBarnesWILD 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for being here! Actually I'm just back from Sweden where I hiked the Kungsleden! Stay tuned for the film in the next few months!

@aruithdearg76 Год назад

Hi Abbie. Another great video. Plenty boggy sections, typical Scotland. It's pronounced 'Venekar'😆 9 out of 10 times if there's a 'ch' in a place name it's pronounced the same as in loch x

@karlejnarch Год назад

That's what I thought too - seeing that Callander is sort of my second hometown 😉

@murchiesmountains2820 Год назад

Great video Abbie😁👍..My neck of the woods up there.😍👍..Iam glad you love Scotland..I’d work on the accent though 😂👍…All the neds or chavs as you guys call them caused the Camping management to come in..So sad it had to come to that..Heh ho it keeps them away. Very enjoyable video😁 Cheers Robert

@davidkennedy4056 Год назад

Great wee video need to give it a visit ...well done Abbie 👍

@CollierCraig79 Год назад

Great video Abbie, I must say as a fellow wild camper and hiker and all round nature lover, these idiots are not humbled in life and have absolutely no respect for anything, I really hope they were young and they learn from their mistakes. ✌️❤️⛰️ Stay wild fellow wanderer.

@claireEt9055 Год назад

Hi Abbie 👋🏼 great video. There’s something really wonderful about the Scottish countryside isn’t there? Love how you master the bogs🤣x

@davemassingham2096 Год назад

@FlyingScot Год назад

Great to see these day walks. Bumped into you at Pitlochry car park back in 2021 when you were on cycling Britain trip and i was visiting back home from Seattle.! Btw, Loch Venachar pronunciation made me chuckle! The ch in venachar is pronounced the same way as the ch in loch with almost a silent r at the end. Im sure you wil get it if you try. Keep up the great content! Im attempting the Cape Wrath Trail this August!

@AbbieBarnesWILD 9 месяцев назад

Was great to meet you!

@barbiesguy Год назад

Hey Abbie, new to your channel and loving your honest content. Was shedding a tear at the end of your Iceland trek! Just wanted to know how you keep your batteries, camera phone etc charged?!

@AbbieBarnesWILD 9 месяцев назад

I carry power banks. Thanks for being here!

@hamwhacker Год назад

Maybe you could arrange a wild walk where we all pick up some rubbish in a known beauty spot. Could be could publicity for you and I am sure lots of wild walkers would support you. ❤

@eleanor6686 Год назад

I absolutely love this idea and would happily join in!

@AbbieBarnesWILD 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for your comment! We actively pick up rubbish and seek to educate and leace the trail in a better place on every event :)

@mikebeattie1061 Год назад

heart breaking to see the trash by the loch but these people are not like us these neds wont watch videos by you and don't understand the horrors of their doings .. apart from that another great video abbie and it isn't Scotland unless its raining

@ruthkelly3117 Год назад

This is my running training route. So sorry not have bumped into you 😊

@docjeano734 Год назад

What kind of hiking shoes are you wearing? I just bought some Oboz Sawtooth shoes.

@davidburgess9058 Год назад

Hi Abbie. You did a review of the Hiiker app sometime ago. Could you tell me if it had a facility where it warns you if you veer off course? Also is the direction indicator a little blue dot or a chevron which I prefer to be honest because it's clearer to see if you have dodgy eyesight. Thanks

@AbbieBarnesWILD 7 месяцев назад

Not that I know of, but they are very helplpful so maybe give them an email :)

@nicholasmaycock267 Год назад

Too many people want rights but not the responsibilities that go with them. Always amazed that they can carry full cans, bottles and the such to sites but can't manage the empties after. Very selfish.

@jamieb741 Год назад

Lovely video Abbie , the camping bits left behind by the Loch is disgusting. Absolutely no respect to the area or other people 😒 Leave no trace 😊

@Daytona2 Год назад

I'm with you on Cuckoos, Abbie If it wasn't for the ticks, that looked like a nice little forest to get a little lost in. Litter louts don't need educating; they know what they're doing. They need removing from society. I resent paying for clearing up after them.

@WilderhopeAdventures Год назад

Fly campers (coined in Dartmoor NP after lockdown) are horrendous and give camping a bad name and leave a sour taste in the mouths of locals and nature-lovers alike. Glad to see the rangers were heading out to clear it up...but they shouldn't have to. As far as your shoulder and back goes have you ever thought about fitting the pack/straps so it doesn't put any weight on your shoulder. I use my shoulder straps to keep my pack in place...they carry no weight; it's all on my hips

@derrickfelix6206 Год назад

Abbie, One really lovely vlog this, totally agree to catch these real litter louts, then humiliate the elders, Under public vanderlisam, distoy their standing they had in the communitee, I feel a public whipping should, be considered, Paid by them that did the vanderlising. apart from that , Cheers Abbie, You sounded so churpy, good for you. How can it be acheived, I feel humilliation to be the answer. Safety is another area we do lack in Travel, soft verge, lanes where ther is little ,too no definition. Abbie your waring a dull mustard jacket, but hay, your ruck sack did this cover the dull mustard ! I use to cycle and in the the area of Dulverton, abright yellow t-shirt or fleece always warn When on the bike, or walking Enough from I, Classed as a firm Abbie follower, Cheers. Ps recon soft verge barrier fondations..
