The scenery in the
Highlands is breathtaking…spectacular mountains like Glencoe, the Nevis Range
and Cairngorm, also waterfalls, tumbling rivers and magical islands. There many
signs of the past here, like the Cairns and standing stones or castles like Urquhart
Castle by Loch Ness, Dunvegan Castle on Skye and Ardvreck Castle by Loch Assynt. Why not visit a Whisky Distillery? Many
distilleries have visitor centres and offer tours (and tasting)! Or try
spotting Bottlenose Dolphins in the Moray Firth.
Take the ferry or bridge across to Skye – it’s another world.
If you are birdwatchers
then head for the Flow Country of Caithness, golfers can try the ‘big name’
courses like Dornoch or Nairn, anglers cast in to the remote hill-lochs of the
north-west and mountain bikers can head off-road through the forests along the
Great Glen. Don’t miss the delights of Loch Lomond
– breathtaking. The Highlands are the place to be.
