BEN VRACKIE

jak wiecie, sezon lazikowania juz otworzylysmy! pozwolcie ze przedstawimy wam kolejna gore, ktora nam ulegla, BEN VRACKIE, kolo pitlochry. wysokosc 720mnpm, nalezy do 'Corbetow' (gory sredniej wysokosci). calkowity czas wejscia okolo 5 godzin, wiadomo, ja robie zdjecia co chwile :)
szczegolnie podobal sie beacie, gdyz mniej wiecej polowe drogi idzie sie dosc stroma, kamienista sciezka, beacie bardzo przypominalo to nasze tatry... chyba zaczyna lubic te szkockie wzgorza ;)
na wycieczke zabralysmy ze soba basie i krisa


as you already know, we opened our 'hillwalkin' season 2009'. let us introduce you the next hill that we 'defeated' Mr BEN VRACKIE, 2759ft, a Corbet (general name for lower hills in scotland, less than 3000ft high), near pitlochry. total time of a walk was around 5hrs, you know I stop to take pictures all the time. i think, beata enjoyed it the most as more-less half of the way we had to go on a steep, rocky path, that reminded her of our tatras... i have a funny feeling she starts loving those scottish hills ;)
we took basia and kris for this trip
