The Mystical Mountain

The Mystical Mountain

The Mystical Mountain of Schiehallion rarely looks the same. Each day, different light, and varied weather. It draws you in, you can’t help but look at it, and look out for it. On wintry morning dog walks you look across the loch to see the pyramidic shape standing out amongst the other hills. The mountain demands your eye. The light lends to the mystique of this ancient hill, and keeps the magic and myth alive each and every day.
