Call of the Heather
A visually sumptuous tour of Scotland's majestic mountains and magnificent lochs.
Overview
"There could not be anything more delectable" than Scotland, this travelogue declares, and it includes plenty of splendid shots to make the point. This whirlwind tour encompasses Edinburgh, St Andrews and many mountains and lochs in between. Look out for the intrepid woman manoeuvring across a rope bridge which appears to have more in common with a tightrope than a bridge.
This film also features glimpses of the Trossachs, Loch Katrine, Loch Lomond, the Pass of Killicrankie, Fort William, Loch Linnhe, the Ballachulish ferry, Glencoe and Glen Nevis among other places.
