To celebrate the Year of Stories, 'Writ Large' will project prose and poetry from Scotland' s best storytellers across the city. This eastern tip of north Scotland, part of the famous North Coast 500 driving route, is an untouched and beautiful part of Scotland, just waiting to be discovered.
One of the most easily recognisable towns in Scotland, it's hard to missTobermory'sbrightly coloured houses along the harbour-front.Jura has only a few roads and deer vastly outnumber people, so it’s easy to imagine why George Orwell sought the quiet of Jura to finish writing 1984. Top of the wish list for many hikers is the 96-mile West Highland Way from Milngavie (near Glasgow) to Fort William, a weeklong walk through some of the country's finest scenery, finishing in the shadow of its highest peak, Ben Nevis. Some of the glen's finest walks – to the Lost Valley, for example – follow the routes taken by fleeing clanspeople, many of whom perished in the snow. With our wild beaches, sparkling lochs and romantic castles,we're often referred to as one of the most beautiful countries in the world.
The Scottish Seabird Centre makes for a great day out, watch the puffins on Craigleith through the moveable cameras in the visitor centre, or best of all take a Catamaran boat trip around Craigleith and Bass Rock.
Glen Etive is a wild, enchanted place where people have been camping for years to walk and climb in Glen Coe area. Choose between a leisurely stroll or if your legs are feeling up to the challenge, take on the Alpaca Trek where you’ll climb the hills of Beirhope and be treated to the stunning views of The Cheviots and Eildon Hills.
Ask at the Whisky Museum about the Malt Whisky Trail, a self-guided tour around the local distilleries. If you just have time for one, the Balvenie Distillery is a good bet, as it still uses a traditional malting floor – the smell is glorious! Already a beautiful place to go on holiday for keen explorers, kayakers, and walkers,Bow Fiddle Rockin Portknockie is a stunning sight to admire as the sun shoots its last rays over the coastline. We would also like to send you exclusive promotions, competitions and content from The Times and Sunday Times and selected partners.Head to the Isle of Mull where you can experience the magic of this quaint fishing port, which was used as inspiration for the popular children's TV show, Balamory. Perched on the cliff edge of the North Sea, the castle boasts a dramatic and evocative atmosphere with centuries of history to explore.
The community aims to take ownership in 2022, so this year may be the perfect time to visit for a congratulatory pint. Local tip: Start your visit to Edinburgh with a climb up Arthur's Seat, an extinct volcano for panoramic views over the city. With a world-class modern art gallery, top museums, spooky historic sites and a majestic 12th-century castle, there's plenty to keep you entertained whatever the season.
Country parks are a great way to connect with nature and Beecraigs Country Park offers hours of excitement and exploration.
