Day 4 Scottish Road Trip: Oban to Tobermory, Mull 21/03/16
Selected video clips and photos of Day 4 of our 2016 Scottish Road Trip. Today we started in Oban, visited McCaig's tower and then got the ferry to Craignure, Mull. We then drove down to Duart Castle and took the single track road to Fionnphort and visit Iona. However we missed the ferry by 5 mins so we turned around and headed for Salen on the coastal road. We stopped at Burg, a National Trust Reserve, and enjoyed a great walk before continuing on to Tobermory for the 1st of 2 nights staying there.
Some great roads, scenery, wildlife and activity. Enjoy!!

Mull is the second largest island of the Inner Hebrides, off the west coast of Scotland in the council area of Argyll and Bute. With an area of 875.35 square kilometres (337.97 sq mi) Mull is the fourth largest Scottish island and the fourth largest island surrounding Great Britain (excluding Ireland). In the 2011 census the usual resident population of Mull was 2,800 a slight increase on the 2001 figure of 2,667; in the summer this is supplemented by many tourists. Much of the population lives in Tobermory, the only burgh on the island until 1973, and its capital. Tobermory is also home to Mull's only single malt Scotch whisky distillery: Tobermory distillery (formerly Ledaig).
It is widely believed that Mull was inhabited from shortly after the end of the last Ice Age, around 6000 BC. Bronze Age inhabitants built menhirs, brochs and a stone circle with examples of burial cairns, cists, standing stones, pottery and knife blades provide compelling evidence. Between 600 BC and AD 400, Iron Age inhabitants were building protective forts, duns and crannogs. Whether or not they were Picts is unclear.
In the 6th century, Irish migrants invaded Mull and the surrounding coast, establishing the Gaelic kingdom of Dál Riata. The kingdom was divided into a number of regions, each controlled by a kin group, of which the Cenél Loairn controlled Mull and the adjacent mainland to the east. Dál Riata was a springboard for the christianisation of the mainland; the pivotal point was AD 563, when Columba, an Irish missionary, arrived at Iona (just off the south-west point of Mull) and founded a monastery, from which to start evangelising the local population.
Mull has a coastline of 480 kilometres (300 mi) and its climate is moderated by the Gulf Stream. The island has a mountainous core; the highest peak on the island is Ben More, which reaches 966 metres (3,169 ft). Various peninsulas, which are predominantly moorland, radiate from the centre.
The Aros peninsula to the north includes the main town of Tobermory, which was a burgh until 1973 when burghs were abolished. Other settlements include Salen, Dervaig and Calgary. The Ross of Mull lies to the south west and includes the villages of Bunessan, Pennyghael, Uisken and Fionnphort. Lochbuie, Lochdon and Craignure lie to the east.
Numerous islands lie off the west coast of Mull, including Erraid, Inch Kenneth, Iona, Gometra, and Ulva. Smaller uninhabited islands include Eorsa, Little Colonsay, the Treshnish Isles and Staffa (of Fingal's Cave fame). Calve Island is an uninhabited island in Tobermory Bay. Two outlying rock lighthouses are also visible from the south west of Mull, Dubh Artach and Skerryvore. The Torran Rocks are a large shoal of reefs, islets and skerries, approximately 15 square miles (39 km2) in extent, located two miles (3 km) to the south west, between the Ross of Mull peninsula and Dubh Artach. Frank Lockwood's Island near Lochbuie is named after the brother-in-law of the 21st MacLean of Lochbuie, who was Solicitor General from 1894-5.
Ferry links to Mull from the mainland include Oban to Craignure (approx. 45 minutes), Kilchoan to Tobermory (approx. 35 minutes) and Lochaline to Fishnish (approx. 15 minutes). Advance bookings are not required for the Kilchoan or Fishnish ferries; access to those two ferry terminals on the mainland side is via single-track roads.
There are ferry links from Fionnphort on Mull to the neighbouring island of Iona and from Oskamull to Ulva. In past years there were direct sailings to Oban (calling at Drimnin, Salen, Lochaline and Craignure), and to Barra, Coll and Tiree from Tobermory. During the summer there was also a sailing to Staffa and Iona from Oban which called at Tobermory. The Isle of Mull Railway ran from Craignure to Torosay Castle, but closed in 2011.

Sheila's Drive Across The Isle of Mull On Route to IONA, Part III, May 6th 2014
After just over 2 hours the drive across The Isle of Mull to Fionnphort is getting closer with some beautiful scenery. The time is still early so I was able to have the single track road to myself. I can imagine the traffic problems at the height of the Tourist season especially with coach loads arriving for Iona----but for me the early morning start was a very wise decision and of course enabled me to really enjoy the scenery at leisure---Alberta, my 24 year old campervan did her job well and hummed as we went along in and around the valleys and winding down thru little hamlets dotted along the route. The whole experience will be remembered forever and when I am 120 I will be able to enjoy the videos and photos---a life time away yet and plenty of Family Tree trips yet to come as I explore my beautiful country and walk in the footsteps of the Ancestors---on this day I was very focused on getting to Iona, to visit the burial place of the Ancients. I have traced my Ancestors to the Kings of Alba--the Scottish Kings, also the Vikings, the Anglo Saxons and later the Normans. Travelling alone can be lonely but it is also empowering--there's a sense of the 'Free Spirit' which is also enabling--basically the experience is quite different than having another person or persons sharing the experience--I like it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Send me to Mars

Top ten things to see in Scotland
1. Loch Ness and the Great Glen
A geological rift split the land from coast to coast, once dividing Scotland in two. Glaciers deepened the trench and the
result today is a long glen of steep-sided, wooded mountains and dark, mysterious lochs. Castles and forts abound,
bearing witness to the Great Glen's strategic importance and enhancing its dramatic grandeur with intrigue and nostalgia.
And, of course, there's the legendary Loch Ness monster, elusive but irrepressible, and still attracting scientific
interest -- keep that camera to hand.
2. Edinburgh Castle
Dominating the city's skyline as it has done for over 800 years, this castle is a national icon and, deservedly, the
country's most popular visitor attraction. Din Eidyn, the stronghold of Eidyn, from which Edinburgh takes its name,
was the vital possession in Scotland's wars. Varying roles as royal palace, barracks, prison and parliament have all
helped shape this castle, home to the Scottish crown jewels and the fabled Stone of Destiny.
3. Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum
Scotland's most visited collection is more popular than ever, since a 27.9 million pound refurbishment allowed even more
of its fascinating collection of art and artifacts to be seen. Some 8,000 works of major international significance are
displayed over three floors of gallery space. The diverse collection takes in world-wide ancient cultures, gives a
comprehensive view of European and Scottish art across the centuries, and provides insights into 20th-century Glasgow
life. Contrasting displays in open spaces demonstrate Kelvingrove's quirky sense of fun
4. Isle of Skye
The product of violent geographical upheavals, the misty isle is justly famed for its towering, ragged mountains
wild coastline. Add to these a colourful patchwork of crofts (farms), waterfalls, an exceptional whisky, a castle linked
to the fairy world and the historical romance of Bonnie Prince Charlie, and you find on Skye all the ingredients that
best symbolize the Highlands.
5. Glasgow Science Centre
This £75-million millennium project is a pure delight. The heart of the centre is the Science Mall, a glass-sided silver
crescent with three floors of hands-on exhibits, demonstrations and special-effect theatres. Adjacent to this is the
world's only revolving tower and an IMAX cinema projecting gigantic 3D films.
6. The Cairngorms
The highest mountain massif in the British Isles comprises a magnificent range of peaks, wild lochs and ancient forests,
as well as bird sanctuaries, nature reserves and sports amenities. It is a region of exceptional scenery and habitats
that have not been divided by roads. Activities take place on its fringe, but the heartland remains open only to those
who travel by foot or on skis. It is this relative isolation that makes it so appealing both for the wildlife that
inhabits the region and for the people who thrive on the testing terrain.
7.The Falkirk Wheel
An engineering design wonder, this huge structure was built to connect the
Union and Forth and Clyde Canals for east to west coast access for boats. The technical genius makes this a fascinating
sight, and it's a great day out for the whole family, adults and children alike.
8.Edinburgh Zoo
It has been open since 1913, and it's still one of the top Scottish attractions. Edinburgh Zoo gives you the opportunity
to meet over 1,000 animals, and is the most exciting wildlife attraction in Scotland.
Of all the things to see and do in Scotland, this is one of them. The highlight is the daily Penguin Parade.
9. Culzean Castle
Formerly a rather dull fortified tower house, Culzean (pronounced Cullane) was transformed by the architect Robert Adam
into a mansion of sumptuous proportions and elegance. The work began in 1777 and lasted almost 20 years, the Kennedy
family sparking little expense in the decoration and craftsmanship of their clifftop home. Culzean -- a masterpiece in a
land full of magnificent castles -- was gifted to the nation and fully restored in the 1970s. Its grounds became Scotland's
first public country park in 1969.
10.Glasgow Cathedral
In Scotland, round about AD550 St Mungo, the first Bishop of the British Kingdom of Strathclyde, founded a religious
community around a small church, in an area that was to become known as Glasgow. The present stone building was built
during the 13th century, on the site where He is believed to have been buried in AD612.
