Ok. I didn't have time to do the entire hike while we were visiting Balmoral, but I did want to get a photo of the castle from above. I only wish I'd had more time to wander through the beautiful woods here. What a fantastic spot. As I walked—without seeing another soul—I envied the members of the royal family who are able to go for trail runs on their own property! Lucky them.
