Loch Lomond

First of all, we want to talk about Loch Lomond, which, with its 8 kilometers wide and 38 kilometers long, is considered the most big From great britain. It is the heart of the Trossachs area, which is the lower part of the Highlands. We recommend that you make excursions on foot or by boat and that you walk around the place to contemplate the beauty of the area.

Orkney Islands

Skara Brae stands out, an area where you can discover settlements that are more than 5,000 years old. Of course, its rebellious and wild nature is also striking.

Ben nevis

Another landscape that could not miss on the list is Ben Nevis, the highest elevation in the United Kingdom. Also known as The Ben, it is a true paradise for lovers of mountaineering, especially for its 700 meters high cliffs on the north side. From the top you can see the beautiful city of Fort William.

Eilean Donan Castle

As you know, Scotland is a country full of castles, so it is not surprising that we include one in the list. In this case we are going to opt for the Catillo Eilean Donan, a fortress built in the year 1200 at one point strategic, specifically on a small island in the middle of a lake. How could it be otherwise, it is the setting for many films. The interior of the castle is somewhat kitsch, but it is worth exploring anyway.

Glen Coe

Another Scottish landscape worth seeing is the Glen Cloe Valley, dominated by three gigantic rock formations called Thrre Sisters (The Three Sisters). Located in the Highlands, this beautiful valley looks even more spectacular from the highway main coming from the east. You will be amazed by the mountainous ridges, the torrents that burst with deafening waterfalls, the low clouds and the silent and hidden valleys.

Lake Ness

Also not to be missed on this list is the famous Loch Ness, which beyond the monster, hides a truly spectacular landscape, with impenetrable depth and a backdrop formed by mountains silent and abrupt. In addition, it is important to keep in mind that due to the fog and the cold the place acquires a most mysterious atmosphere,

Isle of Skye

Finally, we want to talk about the Isle of Skye, one of the main tourist destinations in Scotland. It is connected to the mainland by an arched bridge and offers a wide variety of landscapes. As if that were not enough, many Gaelic traditions are preserved here, including the language. Although there are many corners of this island that we should highlight, we are left with The Old Man of Stoor, one of its best known points.
