A hiking tour in Scotland immerses you in the very fabric of its wild beauty and rich culture through a patchwork of stunning footpaths. Scotland is bursting with coastal routes, rugged and dramatic landscapes, ancient abbeys and historic castles converted into splendid hotels.
In Scotland you can hike some of Europe’s most iconic long-distance trails including the impressive West Highland Way up to the base of the mighty Ben Nevis and the Great Glen Way along the shores of Loch Ness. These locations are where many blockbusters were filmed, like Harry Potter and Braveheart!
