The Scottish Highlands near Balmoral - view of Lochnagar, 1864. Creator: Unknown
The Scottish Highlands near Balmoral - view of Lochnagar, 1864. Landscape at '...Loch-na-Gar, to which Byron has dedicated a few well-known verses. Here is a small black lake, which sleeps at the foot of a wide corrie or cleft near the summit of a mountain some miles to the south-east of Braemar. But in our View this lake, from which the mountain takes its name, is hidden by a lofty range of precipitous rocks, which run sheer down to the edge of the water, inclosing it with a perfect wall. The ground in front, strewn with white crags or tors, slopes upwards to the top of the mountain. The forest of Balloch-bowie, which lies just below this romantic solitude, is one of the best preserves of the red deer'. In 1980, the then Prince of Wales (later King Charles III) wrote a children's book called "The Old Man of Lochnagar". The story revolves around an old man who lives in a cave in the cliffs surrounding the corrie loch under the Lochnagar, a mountain which overlooks the royal estate at Balmoral in Scotland where the royal family traditionally spend much of their summer holidays. From "Illustrated London News", 1864
