A 3 day Campervan Road Trip to the beautiful village of Killin in The Loch Lomond & Trossachs National Park, Scotland. We pitched our VW California Ocean Campervan at the Maragowan Caravan & Motorhome Club Campsite in Killin. This video includes the very scenic journey from Dunfermline, in the county of Fife. to Killin in Perthshire. Along the way we pass through Glen Devon and Glen Eagles within the Ochil Hills mountain range and continue through the picturesque villages of Muthill and Comrie before reaching the town of Crieff in Perth & Kinross. From here, we pass through St Fillans and stop to admire the stunning surroundings of Loch Earn. We then pass through Glen Ogle and stop to explore the Glen Ogle Viaduct (the former Callander & Oban Railway) before continuing to the summit of the glen and Killin junction. A short drive through the village of Killin follows before reaching our destination at the Maragowan Campsite. #campervan #camper #roadtrip #scotland #explore #adventure #drone #vw #vwcalifornia #scotlandtour #scotlandroadtrip Day 1: The scenic drive from Dunfermline in the County of Fife to Killin in Perthshire.

Killin is a small village at the Falls of Dochart, a spectacular series of rapids, at the western end of Loch Tay, where the Rivers Lochay and Dochart join. Killin translates as Cill Fhinn ‘the White (or Fair) Church’ in Gaelic. The MacNab Clan were once dominant here, and have long been associated with Killin. Their ancient burial ground is on Inchbuie in the River Dochart, just below the falls, and is visible from the bridge. Kinnell House was the seat of the MacNabs. A well-preserved prehistoric stone circle known as Killin Stone Circle can be seen in the grounds of the house. To the north of the village lie the ruins of Finlarig Castle, the stronghold of the Campbells of Breadalbane, with its associated chapel. The growing power of the Campbells eventually ousted the MacNabs, who lost Kinnell House to their rivals. In 1694 Sir John Campbell of Glenorchy, 1st Earl of Breadalbane, established Killin as a Burgh of barony. In 1949 Kinnell House and its estate returned to the ownership of the Chief of Clan Macnab, but in 1978 death duties forced the then Chief, James Charles Macnab of Macnab, to sell most of the estate. https://www.lochlomond-trossachs.org/...
