THE HIGHLANDS
The Highlands are the reality behind the captivating images conjured by most people when thinking of Scotland. It is a beautiful and inspiring region, full of timeless landscapes and absorbing history. The dreamy, unspoilt scenery gives rise to the region's reputation as the romantic heart of the nation; with ever and fast changing weather, the snowcapped mountains can be lost in a fog instantly, sunny spells over deep blue lochs give way to dark shadows, stretches of sandy coastline are enveloped in mists, and empty glens are playgrounds for majestic red deer and eagles rule the skies.
The beauty is not the only draw of the Highlands, the area is surprisingly bustling with activity. Driving through the jaw-dropping beauty of Glencoe and Kyle of Lochalsh, you will find peace exploring Cairngorms National Park, Ben Nevis, Ardnamurchan, and Glen Affric or in the flat lands of Caithness or Fort William. Don't forget infamous Loch Ness with its titular monster. For the thrill seekers there is the ski haven of Aviemore, horseback riding, and mountain biking. Also on offer in the vast Highlands are golf, fishing, water sports, jogging, dolphin watching, and much more!
