Princess George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louie are enjoying the last days of summer vacation, but unlike many other children, their playground is the sprawling grounds of Balmoral Castle in Scotland. In recent weeks, the three young royals along with their parents, Prince William and Catherine, are expected to make their annual summer trip over 500 miles north of London to immerse themselves in the Scottish countryside. 

Clearly, George, Charlotte and Louie already know how dear Scotland is to their grandfather King Charles and are starting to build their own happy memories here. Balmoral has always held a special place in the King's heart, as it was one of Queen Elizabeth's favorite places. Now, he is passing on his love of the Highlands to the next generation.

I think William and the children will fit right into whatever activities King Charles has planned. Just as in years past, the family and friends convened at Balmoral Castle and made the most of the glorious grounds with outdoor activities like hunting, fishing, horseback riding and country picnics - pastimes the King no doubt hopes to continue sharing with his grandchildren. 

The Monarch, who has always held a deep affection for his grandchildren, was overjoyed to see William and Catherine arrive at Balmoral along with George, Charlotte and Louis. He greeted them all with warm hugs, eager to spend quality time with the family during their summer stay. 

King Charles is sure to cherish moments reading tales to the children. He may treat them to a story time featuring "The Old Man of Lochnagar", his 1980 children's book set in the caves near Balmoral. The king will also find quiet moments to share, such as taking walks with Prince George in Prince George's Woods - the arboretum at Birkhall named after George at his birth in 2013.

One of the highlights of the family's time at Balmoral was immersing themselves in the simplest pleasures of nature, according to sources. Recently, they took a private fishing trip near the estate, a peaceful excursion that allows them to unwind and connect with the beauty of the surroundings. King Charles was thrilled to introduce his grandchildren to the joys of fishing, a passion he hopes to pass onto future generations.

The insider added that Charles was so proud to see them enjoying themselves and embracing a tradition that has been a part of the royal family for generations. The young royals listened intently as their grandfather spoke, absorbing his wisdom and developing a deeper appreciation for the tradition. It was a special moment for the whole family, said the source.

In addition to fishing, the royal children spent their days exploring the vast estate, playing games, hiking in the hills and enjoying the natural beauty of the Scottish Highlands. Meanwhile, Prince William and Catherine also carved out time to relax and unwind, relishing the chance to step away from their busy schedules in London and soak up the tranquility of the Scottish countryside.

The couple was grateful for the opportunity to spend quality family time with King Charles and the rest of the relatives in the relaxed and informal surroundings of Balmoral. Both the late Queen Elizabeth and Charles roamed the grounds as children, and Charles brought Prince William and Harry there frequently when they were growing up. According to royal photographer Arthur Edwards, the princes were very close as young boys. He commented on iconic shots he took of the trio exploring the River Dee with their dogs in August 1997, saying they looked so relaxed and happy together on that summer holiday.

As the family's holiday at Balmoral comes to a close, King Charles reflected on the precious moments he shared with his grandchildren. The King, who values family above all else, expressed his hope that the long-standing horseback riding traditions will continue for years to come. King Charles is committed to preserving the traditions and values of the Royal Family, according to a source.
