Highlands
Scottish highlands suitable for your trip
When we think of the most enchanting places in Scotland our mind goes to the Highlands or Highlands: eternal mists, rugged mountains, legendary castles and the inevitable presence of whiskey. Oh, and of course this is also the land of Loch Ness and its legendary monster.
The Highlands are located in the northern third of Scotland and its administrative capital is the city of Inverness. Here is the true essence of Scotland, in small towns and villages that still retain their own lifestyle. Her unusual beauty coast off the aura of an untamed land to discover.
On the green hills rise old castles, the pride of the ancient clans: Eilean Donan, Dunrobin and Urquhart. In this last stronghold of old are just standing walls that dominate the waters of Loch Ness and have become a privileged view of those tourists who come in search of a photograph of the legendary animal that lives in its waters.
Near the lake and along the Moray Firth is Inverness. It is a picturesque city with a vibrant cultural life, comparable to the lesser known but equally delightful town of Fort William, to the south. There life revolves around the main street of the village High Street.
Fort William gets up at the foot of Ben Nevis, the highest mountain in the United Kingdom and a few miles from Lake Morar, the deepest fresh water in Europe.
