Tour Schedule
Please note that the sequence and length of the stops can change if the weather is unfavourable. I try to keep you dry if possible, but it is Scotland!
First stop Culloden Clootie Well (St Mary’s Well), a clootie well to show you the strange traditions still going strong in a modern world. An ancient tradition with origins back in time amongst cultures we no longer understand but can still empathise with.
Now Clava Cairns, a magnificent example of reverence for the dead in a civilisation from 2,000 to 6,000 years ago. These cairns and the associated Standing Stone circles were ceremonially used but unfortunately the how’s and why’s can only be imagined by us today.
Clava Cairns
Next is Culloden Battlefield. Site of the last great battle and the end of the Highland way of life.
We then drive to Tomatin Distillery for a Whisky tasting
And now down to Kingussie to visit Ruthven Barracks.
And lastly, we visit the Highland Folk Museum at Newtonmore, site of several Outlander filming locations. A wonderful museum taking us through time from the 1740’s to my own youth in the 1960’s.
