#Brave disney 3d series#
Robbie MacPherson was not alone and at one time there were over 200 illicit stills operating in the glen due to economic hardship and a series of whisky taxes imposed by the British government. Run by the Glenlivet Estate and the Glenlivet Distillery, the walks tell the history of the smugglers who distilled whisky in the remote climate and terrain of Glenlivet away from the prying eyes of excise men, before smuggling it out of the glen. Keen walkers can follow in the footsteps of famous whisky smugglers like the legendary Robbie MacPherson, with three walks in the Glenlivet valley of varying length, from a family walk, to a one day hike to explore the secret smuggling paths of days gone by. Walk in the footsteps of Smugglers on the Glenlivet Estate Atholl Estates boasts the only private army in Europe, a real life clan army that dates back to the times of Merida’s adventures.
Hidden from view in the attic maze of rooms and corridors are many strange, wonderful and interesting artefacts that tell even more of the story of the castle’s chequered past.
Whilst there take advantage of discovering the Castle’s secrets by booking onto an attic tour. One of the first private homes to open to the public in Scotland, Blair Castle is an Aladdin’s Cave of history and Highland culture and on your visit you can take in a tour of 30 rooms and the fascinating collections they contain. You can also time it right and see the Amur tigers getting their afternoon snack – it’s a must.īlair Castle is one of the most striking Highland Castles as the whitewashed walls sit splendidly against the lush green trees that surround Highland Perthshire. You won’t come across a grisly brown bear like Merida does in the movie, but you will get to meet Walker and Arktos (the UK’s only resident polar bears in a public collection), Elara and Puika – the wolves (and their 5 pups!) and wildcats, Arctic foxes, bison, snow monkeys and elk. You can practice shooting the target with your bow and arrow during an archery session or simply sit and watch the world go by on the shores of Loch an Eilein – the award winning loch with an ancient castle on its island heart. Not only that, but if you want to saddle up and head out on horseback through the Ancient Caledonian Pine Forests – just like Merida – then you can. Owned by the Grant family for more than 450 years the estate is home to some of the most stunning views and indigenous and endangered wildlife. One of the most magical and inspirational parts of the Highlands, Rothiemurchus is the epitome of all things Brave. Come and join us – we promise you won’t be disappointed! So, instead of tying ourselves to our cinema chairs, What’s On followed our destiny and headed out into the landscapes of the UK’s largest National Park to see just what we could get up to, walking in the footsteps of Princess Merida. “Some say our destiny is tied to the land, as much a part of us as we are of it.” Princess Merida, Brave
