Glen Affric is a glen south-west of the village of Cannich in the Highland region of Scotland, some 15 miles to the west of Loch Ness. The River Affric runs along its length, passing through Loch Affric and Loch Beinn a' Mheadhoin. A minor public road reaches as far as the end of Loch Beinn a' Mheadhoin, but beyond that point only rough tracks and footpaths continue along the glen.Often described as the most beautiful glen in Scotland, Glen Affric contains the third largest area of ancient Caledonian pinewoods in Scotland, as well as lochs, moorland and mountains. The area is a Caledonian Forest Reserve, a National Scenic Area and a National Nature Reserve.The forests and open landscapes of the glen, and the mountains on either side, are a popular destination for hikers, climbers and mountain bikers.

Landscape Photography | Glen Affric, Scotland Part 1

Glen Affric – Part 1.

I spent a rather wet night in my tent in Glen Affric, in the Scottish Highlands to allow me the opportunity to capture the early morning light in one of Scotland’s most colourful glens. With autumn in full swing, and having miss timed my visits the last few years I was hoping to have a bit more luck on this visit. As you will see in the video I couldn’t have asked for better weather and conditions for capturing the autumnal colours in all their glory.
