Ben Lawers Dam. A wee short video of one of our favourite places, set within the stunning Ben Lawers mountain range and nature reserve in the southern highlands of Scotland.
Contructed between 1951 and 1956 this massive buttress type dam is 344 metres in length and 42 metres in height. Ben Lawrs Dam is part of the Breadalbane hydro Electric Scheme.
Built across the southern end of Lochan na Lairige and fed by a system of tunnels and aqueducts from a ctachment area of 45 square kilometres. The water in the Lochan has now been raised by a massive 27 metres!
The water drops from here down to Finlarig power station on Loch Tay, a drop of 415 metres.
We were staying in Aberfeldy and in the beautiful Glen Lyon so it would have been rude not to drive through and visit this awesome place.

Hope you enjoy the video.

About Saor Thoil.
Join our journey as we travel through Scotland on our Munro bagging adventures. Our Munro climbing journey has changed us so much as we experience the real Scotland outdoors through all of our mountain adventures while hiking in Scotland, losing ourselves in the magical Scottish mountains and celebrating with each other as we reach and cross the many Munro peaks that Scotland delivers. Our outdoor adventures and wilderness exploration take us on many Scottish trails and we hope that the scenic landscapes and nature hikes will motivate you to explore Scotland also.
Through our YouTube channel and website as well as our social media channels we aim to build a Munro baggers community, full of Munro bagging challenges and Munro bagging tips.
Our videos don’t just feature our Munro bagging experiences or our Munro bagging achievements but also feature hikes through the Scottish wilderness showcasing some of the best of Scotland’s beauty while travelling the many hiking trails in Scotland.
We welcome all outdoor enthusiasts and anybody interested in Scottish nature exploration, those in love with Scottish landscapes, Scottish summit views and scenic viewpoints right through to those who love mountain photography, drone footage and Scotland travel in general.
We hope our Munro bagging guide and Munro bagging routes either through this channel or our website at www.saor-thoil.co.uk will help you on your own Munro bagging journey and that you will subscribe and follow the channel and our social media platforms on Instagram and Facebook and become part of our Munro bagging community.
We would love to see and hear about your own Munro bagging challenges and Munro bagging milestones as well as hearing about any epic hikes that you complete while enjoying Scottish hillwalking.
We hope you enjoy our Saor Thoil adventures and our adventure vlog but most of all we hope that our Munro bagging series and our films showing our Saor Thoil climbs inspire people to get up, put the boots on and enjoy the wonderful outdoors and Scotland’s mountains. Stay awesome.
