The Highlands region

The Scottish Highlands are the mountainous regions of Scotland north and west of the Highland Boundary Fault. It is popularly described as one of the most scenic regions of Europe.

The highlands claim a certain amount of distinction from the rest of Scotland in the continued use of the Gaelic language in some parts as well as strong cultural traditions of music and dance.

History of the Highlands dates back to Viking invasions and Scotland's defence tactics can be seen in remains of ancient cairns and stone settings.

A landscape to explore, a history to discover, many mountains to conqueur and a multitude of whiskies to savour.
