Rannoch Moor by Lochan Beinn Chaorach - Added to Lakes, Lochs and Reservoirs in Lochaber East and North, Scotland

I have just added this to the map of places to fly your drone at Drone Scene:

Rannoch Moor, 28th January 2026.

50 Square Miles of moorland in the Highlands of Scotland and a great place to fly.

There are many off road locations to fly along this stretch of the A82.

I flew in 5°C which did affect flight time on fully charged batteries on Mini 4 Pro and forv the first time nearly ran out of juice.

The originator declared that this location was not inside a Flight Restriction Zone at the time of being flown on 30/01/2026. It remains the responsibility of any pilot to check for any changes before flying at the same location. Landowner permission may be required before taking off.

@Duckie I hope you do get to fly here, it is a very special place to fly, especially at this time of year with the snow capped mountains.

I’ve lived in Scotland for 65 years and only now in retirement am I getting the chance to explore my country.

I do a lot of Loch flying, we have over 30,000 of them, I’ll never see them all but I’m working my way around them.

Beautiful location IanC2002.
My knowledge of the West coast of Scotland is from a canoe, kayak or sea kayak. Would love to fly/photograph/film up there :wink:

Hi @Raptor56, it looks as though you’re quite new here :wave:t2:

Why not nip over to the Introductions page, and say hello properly and tell us a bit about yourself. :+1:t2:
