Fire and Ice

We decided to brave the weather and head off to the Scottish Crannog Centre for an evening's display of Fire and Ice on 4th December. We're certainly glad we did as it was an evening to remember.

A visiting master ice sculptor (who makes ice hotels!) taught some local artists to sculpt in ice. The local artists also made sculptures that were set alight which made for a fantastic visual display...which also gave out a lot of heat!

The photographs show the Crannog Centre and one of the fire sculptures.

Afterwards, there was storytelling in the Crannog in front of a lovely fire, followed by some fire dancing. Hats off to the Crannog Centre and the local artists who successfully pulled off their first Fire and Ice Festival. I've been so impressed with the Crannog that I've added it to our list of Things To Do in Pitlochry on our new website.

Best wishes, Liz
