Loch of Lintrathen

                                                                                    Today Stephen Ellis (Montrose Kayaker) and myself The Paddle Bandit went on a early morning paddle to the Loch of Lintrathen, a few miles outside of Kirriemuir in Angus Scotland. We arrived just as the pale sun was beginning to peep its head over the surrounding hills and the temperature was still at the overnight temperature of about 4 and 6 Deg. C and as you can imagine, "Wondering what the hell we were doing here", rather than being tucked up in a warm bed, and why we were proposing to go for a paddle in near freezing water.

Crinan Canal ,Kyntyre Peninsula , West Scotland

Image
My son Andy Hill and myself Andrew Hill (The Paddle Bandit) went up to Lochgilphead on the Kintyre Peninsula to paddle the Crinan Canal between Crinan and Ardishaig in Argyll and Bute on the West coast of Scotland. The canal opened in 1801 and takes its name from from the village of Crinan at its Western end, it is approximately 9 miles or 14km long and connects the village of Ardrishaig on Loch Glip with The Sound of Jura, providing a sailing route between the Clyde and the Inner Hebrides without having a long diversion around The Kintyre Peninsula and saving sailing around the exposed Mull of Kintyre, you travel through a series of 14 loch gates that switch you from level to level from the village  of Ardrishaig. This is a highly recommended paddle, which is both challenging and from a visual point of view, really stunning.
