The Surprise View, Ashness Wood, Lake District added to Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty in North West by AlbionDrones on 24/06/2024

The third location flown on the Drone Show Live Viewers Lakes road trip, just up the road from Ashness Bridge, the wonderful Surprise view.

Car Parking on site, and a very short walk - the car park at Ashness Bridge 300m away is on the same parking ticket, so you pay once to park at both locations,,

The drop is steep so do take care, there are no barriers!

River Coe Gorge, Glencoe (By AlbionDrones)

The River Coe Gorge is a narrow river gorge running from the waterfall down alongside the main road - A82. It is filled with obstacles, trees, branches, rocks, and waterfalls and rapids, yet it makes an amazing place to fly FPV in a cinematic way.

Park in the layby and walk to the viewing platform, keep to the right and you will have a good view of the gorge entrance, your spotter needs to be nearby too.

If the drone loses connection you may find yourself having to take a swim to recover it as overhanging rock faces and trees will make it difficult for it to autoreturn. I flew about 300m down the gorge, using my AVATA and Goggles2 with the MC, at 300m I had 2 bars of transmission, so turned back at that point.

Be prepared to lose your drone if you attempt this amazing location...
