Venture into the embrace of the Scottish Highlands with a hike up Ben Ledi, a peak that stands as a sentinel over Loch Lubnaig. As you ascend through evergreen forests and heather-clad slopes, the world unfolds beneath your feet. Reaching the summit is an achievement worth every step, rewarded with panoramic views that stretch across the heart of Scotland. Ben Ledi offers an experience that encapsulates the grandeur of the Highlands.

Milo Lockhart | Fairy Pools Sky

Step into a world of enchantment as you journey to the Fairy Pools on the Isle of Skye. Crystal-clear waters beckon you to follow their course, leading you through a series of captivating cascades and serene pools. The blue hues of the water, framed by the dramatic backdrop of the Cuillin Mountains, create a surreal landscape that feels straight out of a fairy tale. Whether you choose to dip your toes in the inviting pools or simply look at the natural beauty that surrounds you, the Fairy Pools promise a truly magical experience.

Scott Weir | Great Glen-way

Embark on a journey through history and nature as you walk the Great Glen Way, tracing the path of the Caledonian Canal. This long-distance trail guides you along the fault line that forms the Great Glen, revealing the striking beauty of Lochs and Glens along the way. From the picturesque shores of Loch Lochy to the iconic vistas of Loch Ness, each step offers a new perspective on Scotland’s diverse landscapes. Whether you choose to walk the full length or savour shorter sections, the Great Glen Way is a testament to Scotland’s natural and cultural heritage.
