So beautiful. A mystical natural wonderland. No wonder why Scotland is listed as the most beautiful place in the world.
Many thanks Molly. I love this place
Found you detecting first. Your knowledge and ease of relating of the history Scotland is the biggest reason I became a regular viewer of your other CZcams channel. You bring characters and stories to life. This? Spectacular. Thank you for what you do! ♥
Thanks for the kind words Elaine. So glad you enjoyed and many more tours to come!
@@visitscotlandtours1 Same, will def be coming to visit soon enough.
@@visitscotlandtours1I thought you looked and sounded familiar. I'm enjoying your channel very much.
What detecting channel
@@whiskeycook3323I think it's called The Scottish Detectorist
I live in the Piedmont in North Carolina , USA. I can see why so many ended up in this area from Scotland, no matter when or how they got here. It is so similar in terrain. It is so beautiful in Scotland!
My wife and I are from Mississippi in the USA. We have visited this place and made the circuit hike there several times when visiting. We have stayed at the Atholl house in Dunkeld (Holiday Inn) and have driven in several times from the Jute Mill at Blairgowrie just a short drive away. The Hermitage, Scone Palace, the Cateran Trail, Dunkeld Cathedral, and Cargill's Leap on the walk from the Jute Mill into Blairgowrie are just fantastic. Anyone in the area that wants a first class diner should eat at Little's in Blairgowrie/Rattray. I LOVE SCOTLAND.
I loved the video! I hope there’s more to come. Your mic did a great job, btw. 👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻
Much appreciated Violet
John, I’m pleased that while the National Trust warns visitors about copper poisoning while discouraging visitors from pounding coins into tree trunks, I am happy to see that they haven’t hauled off the stump to augment the till of the Trust! Beautiful tour! Also, if you ever wish to visit California to see two favorites of John Muir, Muir Woods in Marin County, north of the Golden Gate Bridge and Yosemite National Park, send me a message!
I love your detecting but this channel brings the beauty of Scotland and it’s history right over my doorstep and into my home, where you will be a welcome channel often. 🥰
Aww thanks …Glad you enjoyed thanks for watching
Absolutely Beautiful! Thanks for the tour, John.
Many thanks
You made comments about David Douglas. This is an excellent book written in the Pacific Northwest about his travels. Really brings to life the times he was collecting in this region.

We had just gotten to Edinburgh when I watched this video! So glad I did. It was the perfect halfway point between our AirBnB locations. What a beautiful hike. The river was quite full, the sun shining, and seeing the “wishes” all over the forest trails was quite nice too. The trees covered in moss was a nice touch. Your video was amazing, but seeing it in person even better! Thanks again John!
Tuned in here from your shout out in MD video and I’m so pleased I did. What a truly magnificent place, I can’t wait to visit. loved every minute of your commentary and the stunning scenery, Thanks for sharing John and look forward to seeing more sites in Scotland.
Thank you John, for a wonderful and informative video. I have been enjoying the Scottish Detectorist and your history lessons for some time and all I could think of when I saw those coin trees - was "Coin Hoard" :D Thank you so much for the Insight you give to a place you love. Looking forward to the next tour :)
Haha 😂 many thanks Jennifer and I’m glad you enjoyed! Best wishes and thanks for your support
What a beautiful place John, and good to see the other side of the SD channel! This video is good enough to bring the world to Perthshire! I’m definitely going to plan a break there and visit this magical place 😍
Many thanks Pauline. Glad you enjoyed
It is unlikely I will ever see this in person. The work you put in to bring this to us is much appreciated. Thank you.
John, I have been watching your metal detecting for almost a year now and this is the first time I’ve been to your Travel Channel. I didn’t know what I was missing.
Your vlogs have proven to be so useful for planning my next trip to Scotland. My Scottish husband was wonderfully proud of his country and set me on the same path of appreciation for the glorious scenery and history of his grand home of Scotland. He oftentimes used the same description...absolutely gorgeous! Thank you, John.
Wow you took me back, we got married here on 30 October 2023 in Ossians Hall and it was a magical day. We love the Hermitage and are fortunate to only live less than an hour from it. We’ll return next October for our first wedding anniversary. Thank you 🫶🏼
Scotland is beautiful.
Amen 🙏 😆
Absolutely breathtaking and fascinating from beginning to end! I am all a-thrill! Can't wait!!! Huge gratitude to you, Sir!
You are so welcome! ☺️
This makes me so happy. John, you are an incredible talent.
Aww thanks much appreciated
Well, how lovely was that? What an absolutely beautiful part of the world! I can't walk these days but it used to be one of my main pleasures in life, and to be able to watch as you took us along on this walk was just brilliant!
Thank you so much! A guided walk is always better when you can learn something about what you are seeing and you are an excellent guide. A fountain of knowledge and information! You're a great storyteller, as you manage to bring the tale to life. I can tell I'm going to love your new channel as much as the detecting one!
Many thanks Jan and I’m glad you enjoyed. I wish I hadn’t drowned out quite so much of the flowing water noise but at least you could hear me! Many thanks
691st subscriber!... I was one of the first 1000 on the Scottish Detectorist. "yay me"
I could get me some nice big Brown Trout below that waterfall.
Well there we go again… another task for us. Like and share. I guess king John wants 22k on this channel too? 😁
Scottish Trout, like the folks, are very picky. I’ve heard they only bite on scones with jam or chocolate. 🥯🍩 The trout that is….
Yep, really picky, I mean, we don’t see John going around the fields with a Garret Ace 200. It had to be the XP Deus 2. 😉
Much appreciated
Love this! I am mainly of the Sutherland Clan, but also the Murray's. I have got to get there. I own 5 square foot of land outside of Inverness and can legally use Lady before my name. I want to get more reforestation in the Highlands! My people have been here in the Colonies since 1747. We were among the first to hit the Far Blue Smokey Mountains, the first frontier. It looks exactly like where I live in the Appalachians!
Magical place. Thank you for this wonderful tour and great education.
Thank you
So glad to see you on this new channel, John. The Hermitage is a family favorite walk. So so beautiful! I’m excited to see , and hear, more of you on this new CZcams venture.
Many thanks Derin. Couldn’t agree more, I love this place!!
Very, very much enjoyed this beautiful walk along the Hermitage path. Absolutely gorgeous. I look forward to many more of your informative guided tours John.
My pleasure Myn and I’m glad you enjoyed, see you on the next!
Best of luck with your new channel john,just subscribed .
Many thanks Pat. Much appreciated
Thank you for posting this video. Used to live just outside Dunkeld and visited the hermitage many times. You’re right about the hermitage being a magical place and you did a good job capturing the stunning scenery ! (mind you, not so sure quite how much Ossian appreciated the splendour of the views since he was reportedly blind 😁). Been away from Scotland too many years now. This video rekindled desire to return home some day. Thanks again for posting. Cheers, 👍
Some of the shots in your video would make fantastic postcards. The colours in the trees and the foaming river with the mist in the air are absolutely beautiful
Thanks Jan! Glad you enjoyed
Wow John!!! You ought to think about doing this for a living!!!! 🤗 Absolutely could listen to you for hours!!! Well done Sir! ❤👍👍👍👍👍👍
just subscribed, already enjoy your metal-detecting videos John and now there's this channel which is absolutely amazing. If I'm ever blessed to get to Scotland, Perthshire will be the place for me. Looking forward to future videos and thank you.
Welcome to the Channel penny and thanks for your support
Whenever I need a soothing escape from work, and daily life-I come to your page(s). I'm a history/travel junkie. The pace and content of your tours are spot on. Thank you again for sharing your amazing knowledge and love of your stunningly beautiful country! I often wonder how my ancestors could leave such a magnificent and magical country!! Hello from Santa Fe New Mexico (USA)
Wow! Thanks for sharing all of this with us! Looking forward to watching the rest! 😍
Many thanks and happy new year!
Thank you so much for making the soothing restful recording of the Hermitage. It was delightful, and gave me the desire to visit it one day.
Sigh.
This looks so much like my home state of West Virginia, USA. As you say, they were once connected. WV was also heavily settled by the Scots partly because it reminded them so much of home. I guess now I can say it also reminds me so much of home; my ancestral home.
What a wonderful boon to the country the creator of this incredible parkland accomplished. I could spend a lifetime there I think, or at least years, just wandering and studying the different species of plants. And watching the river, letting it both soothe and excite my soul.
Thank you for this wonderful tour. I could almost feel my feet squishing the Scottish mud.
I love Scotland! My maternal grandparents were born there. My friend and I visited in 1994 and I ache to go back! Beautiful country but bad politics (like most of us around the world). Thank you for your videos.
Thanks for watching, haste ye back
This is one of The most beautiful places i have ever been! Thank you for all of the historical information.
Years back, we visited your amazing country..3weeks spent traveling through stops, including Hermitage with McBackers Tours and a lovely guide named Grahm. Absolutely stunning!!!!
I hope you’ll be coming back soon to see some more! But glad you have such happy memories
OMG, John, this the most beautiful video I have ever seen. The scenery is breath taking..... and the color of the trees are glorious. The waterfalls are truly wonderful and put together, as you have, is stunning! Thank you so much! As you might be able to tell. I loved it! Thank you for sharing!
Beautiful. Very much resembles my forest here in Michigan. Our oldest two trees are oaks and beech as the white pine was logged out then replanted with red and Scotch pine. The steep terrain is here too, left by the glaciers. Looking forward to visiting Scotland one day.
Added to my must see list. Amazing the coin tree tradition. Love new knowledge.
Wonderful Ruth, hopefully you come to see it very soon
What beautiful scenery and a great video to watch thank you 👍🇨🇦
Glad you enjoyed Eva! Best wishes
Thank you so much for this wonderful video. In fact, this magical place is already on our list, for visiting. Now I'm looking forward even more. Thank you so much.
Please do make more videos 😊
This was spectacular! Thank you for sharing this beautiful gem of an area and its history! I can’t wait for your next tour!
Hi John, beautyful. Perfect tour gide. No nonsens and telling how it was in the old times just like your detecting chanel wich I love also to watch and subscribet to. I always wanted to visit Scotland and visit the old Castels. It is such a mittical country. Looking forward to the next video. Well don.
Much appreciated Jack. Thanks for the kind words and your support
I love how you gave exact descriptions of the locale of The Hermitage, along with info about the overflow parking facilities and the fact that you must have 3 pound coins for parking. You also gave a nod towards Dunkeld for their cafe's, well done John! Your information is so informative about the history of Scotland, you are a treasure to your country.

Been there many times over the years. One of my favourites. I am luck to live in 🏴
Thank you for showing us this spectacular place! It is definitely on our bucket list now.
Your love for your country comes true in you tone & words. I bet you can figure out the coins that are buried in the wood…..even with only a fraction of the coin showing.😊
Many thanks Claire. Glad you enjoyed. Possibly my favourite place in Scotland
I can see why you are so passionate about your homeland.
Beautiful it is.

John, it was an absolute pleasure to walk along beside you in this fabulous video. I'm going to take some stills and hopefully paint them, the views are spectacular! You certainly chose the right day to visit, the light showed off the colours of the trees at their purest. It certainly was magical. I've never heard of this place, and know I'll never get to see it in person, so thank you, your video did Scotland and the Hermitage proud. Much love to you and Mrs John 😘😘Chez in Lliria Valencia Spain 😘😘

I am a decent of the Graham clan of Montrose. I can go from 1400s until today. Thank you for showing me the castle they use to live in. I am Scottish and English, and American Indian.
Thank you for this gorgeous walk through the woods. So wonderfully peaceful and calming in stressful times . Best regards from war-torn Israel

Thank you for the video of a truly wonderous part of Scotland.
I was born in Perth and miss the beautiful scenery I grew up with, I had never heard of the Hermitage, unfortunately I will not be able to go and view this beautiful view. You have taught me where two names came from. The river Bran (Bran Terrace was the name of a road that leads you up the hill from Mercer Terrace) The river Lyn (we used to go swimming at the Lyn in Stanley Thank you. 21:51 👵🏼❤️
Such a wonderful video. So mystical and calming. A privilege to watch. Thank you.
Much appreciated
This beautiful place reminds me of my beloved wild mountain home in southwest Montana, USA. Thank you for this glorious experience. Your work is magnificent.
The spirit and tenacity of the Scottish people is well represented by the story of the unfair toll being forcibly removed. Or so this old Yank believes. 🏴🙏❤️
I'm getting married here in July, glad to know the puppers won't be able to get at the dress 😅
Absolutely breathtaking!!!!! #1 on my bucket list is to visit Scotland. I absolutely love this video......feels like I am there. The scenery is so amazing!!!! Thank you!!!
Much appreciated and I’m glad you enjoyed 😆
