About Scotland
Scotland's Highlands stretch north and west in a sweep of purple heather, dark peat bog, and silver loch, a landscape that feels older than time itself. Shaggy Highland cattle graze on the brae, red deer pick their way across the moor, and the distant silhouette of a stone castle rises from the mist. In the glens below, the smell of woodsmoke and the sound of a fiddle drifting from a village inn are as much a part of the place as the thistle and the tartan.
