Holiday in the Highlands

Location and orientation

Nature-rich highlands in the north of Great Britain

In the far northwest of Scotland, the Highlands cover an area of 25,600 square kilometres and are divided into the Great Glen, the Grampian Mountains and the Northwest Highlands. The largest city in the region is Inverness on the banks of the Ness. The region is famous for its rustic vegetation, the mountains (Munros), moors and for the production of Highland Malt whisky.

The landscape of the Highlands served as a backdrop for international films and series such as Harry Potter, Highlander, Braveheart or Outlander.

Top 3 travel tips

1. Legendary waters

The most famous lake in Scotland is about ten kilometres from Inverness. Loch Ness spreads over a length of 1.5 kilometres and a width of 37 kilometres. Its maximum depth is 230 meters. The freshwater waters and the small village of Drumnadrochit attract thousands of tourists every year looking for the legendary sea monster Nessie.

2. From the early new to the post-war period

On the outskirts of Newtonmore is the impressive Highland Folk Museum, which consists of four sections. Visitors can take a trip back in time to the 19th century and visit the original farmhouses and handicraft huts. The buildings include a school, animal stables, a church or a railway station.

3. Celtic defence complex

Near the village of Dornie lies the most famous castle of the Highlands. Eilean Donan Castle was built around 1200 and is situated on a promontory that turns into an island at high tide. The Niederungsburg is the most photographed motif in the region and is visited by 310,000 visitors every year. Today the fortress is used as a museum.
