Tie Me Wallaby Down Sport!
Have you ever wondered how the animals from the distant shores of Australia would fare in Scotland’s wet and windy shores? Well you need wonder no more, because everyone’s idea of the second most cuddly inhabitant of the land of Oz, the wallaby lives here. The cuddliest is of course the koala! But the Koala needs eucalyptus trees which we lack. However, shortly after the end of the Second World War a Scottish aristocrat introduced a mob of the delightful, shy creatures onto an island on Loch Lomond and there they have prospered for around 80 years.
The island in question is called Inchconnachan which was owned by Clan Colquhoun for nearly six hundred years, but has recently been sold to a celebrity couple. The wallabies have been known to leave the island when foraging for food in the depths of winter when the loch freezes over, but they always returned to Inchconnachan.
Locals always refer to the isle as Wallaby Island and anyone can visit the island as long as they don’t disturb the wildlife, especially the marsupial inhabitants. It won’t be easy however as there is no ferry for the isle which is only 40 minutes from Glasgow, you’ll need to sail or row, or even paddleboard across to sample its secluded delights. There is only one rule “leave it as you found it:” Which is the rule for all of the nation when wild camping and the like.
But to access the delights of the delights of the James Pirie website it takes no strain, no hiring of kayak or paddleboard, just a few clicks of the mouse.
