It was a beautiful crisp day here at Balquhidder Lodges today so we took the opportunity to put the Christmas decorations up.... here's a picture of the front of the lodge lit up with the icicle lights... surely Santa will see these?

Recent guests at Balquhidder Mhor Soghail Lodge enjoyed a great day out white water rafting at Aberfoyle and were kind enough to share their photo's with us. Our guests were hosted by Splash Rafting who look to be a really great outfit who also offer other water sports activities such as canyoning. Looks to be absolutely great fun!

We've had our first snow and hard frost this winter.... time to wrap up... but we get some fantastic sunsets and sunrise views at this time of the year!

Some great photos from our guests paddle boarding on Loch Lubnaig, only 10 minutes drive from Balquhidder Mhor Lodges. This is a great place to paddleboard, overlooked by the Munro of Ben Ledi. You can enjoy a hot cuppa or a snack at the cafe at the carpark... looks like brilliant fun :)

There is a fantastic walk above Callander which takes you over the Bracklinn waterfalls. Completing the 3.5 mile circuit has not been possible recently as the powerful waterfalls kept washing away the bridge. The £110k bridge erected in 20210 only lasted 6 years. The new steel bridge should stand the test of time!
