There’s nothing quite like it' is part of the series A Year in Scotland. This is the October episode.

In this story, we're immersed in Scotland's Big Tree Country as we explore the history and woodlands of Perthshire. First, we follow in the footsteps of Robert Burns and wander through the woodland surrounding the Falls of Bruar. We hear about Scotland's champion trees, the tree-planting Duke of Atholl and the role of trees during the Highland Clearances. Then we follow the waters of the River Garry, high onto the Pass of Killiecrankie and deep into the history of the Jacobites.
