Kelly and I didn't do too much hiking (does walking through Stirling, Calendar and Aberfoyle count?) while in Scotland, but I can tell you this...

There's a road between Aberfoyle and Calendar. Not hard to find, considering it's the ONLY road. It is a windy road and goes over a mountain, through a valley (with NOTHING in it but fields) and over another mountain. Along that road, there are no people, VERY few cars (1 passes every 10 min or so) and just open country. Along side of the road, there's a little parking lot with a couple picinic tables and a gravel parking lot. You can't miss it.

You want your hair to stand on end? Hit that place right before sundown and watch the sun set over the mountain with the woman you love while wearing a kilt. The silence and beauty and smell of clean air are more memorable than anything else on our whole trip to Scotland.
