JOURNEY OFF THE BEATEN PATH IN SCOTLAND
If you want to feel the heartbeat of the “real Scotland” – to explore the foundations of its centuries-old culture and traditions – you must journey northward to the Highlands. This sparsely populated region of rugged mountain ranges and mysterious lochs captures the beauty and essence of all that is Scotland.
Loch Ness, shrouded in mystery, grabs the attention of all who arrive at these shores hoping to catch a glimpse of Nessie, its famous monster. Take a boat tour across the watery expanse to get an even better chance at seeing her. Of course, there’s much more to delve into. This part of the Highlands is known for its dramatic scenery, with brooding castles and solitary lighthouses.
Views of Loch Ness can be enjoyed from the ruins of the famous Urquhart Castle. Get a sense of what Medieval life was like at this 1,000-year-old castle, which features a remarkable collection of artifacts left by its residents as well as historic replicas.
When you are ready for a city break, head for Inverness, which offers a lively culinary scene and open-air Victorian Market. Stroll along the banks of the sinuous River Ness and across footbridges to
explore both sides of the riverbank. And be sure to visit the Castle Viewpoint, a viewing platform offering 360-degree views of the Highland capital and surrounding scenery. Climb the tower to find out more about the city’s intriguing myths and legends.
Also on a visitor’s must-see list is the Isle of Skye, home to some of Scotland’s most iconic landscapes, with many captivating geological features. The scenic beauty of the island’s dramatic coastlines and mountain ranges is beyond compare. After
a full day of exploring, step into one of the local village restaurants or pubs to sample the local fare and enjoy a warming drink.
Venturing beyond the Isle of Skye, take the road to Glencoe, which winds through an ancient volcano. This area of the Highlands, with its deep valley and towering mountains, is said to be one of the most beautiful and other-worldly places
in Scotland. You might even recognize it from scenes of Harry Potter movies.
With all its beauty, mystique and historical treasures, Scotland’s Highlands make for a wonderful journey that will leave lasting impressions for years to come.
