Scotland is not just the land of Braveheart, haggis, whisky, and sheepherders. It is filled with
castles, stunning lochs and mountains, beautiful parks, whisky, and welcoming locals.
I love visiting Scotland. It is just an amazing place that I can never get enough of. The
people, the jovial spirit, the landscape, the booze – Scotland never disappoints (ok, a little
with the food). Be sure to get out of the cities into the highlands with their rich rugged
landscapes. Head west to the islands of Islay, Jura, and Mull.
1. Try to find Nessie
Loch Ness is one of the most famous lochs (lakes) in
Scotland. It’s the alleged home to Nessie, aka the
Loch Ness Monster, a creature said to live in the loch.
The first “sightings” date back to the 1870s, though
there is no definitive proof that any such creature
exists. Nonetheless, the myth perseveres and it’s a
popular destination to visit to take a cruise, hike in the
nearby hills, and visit some of the smaller nearby
towns and villages like Dores or the nearby ruins of
Urquhart Castle. The best way to get here is to travel
to Inverness, from which Loch Ness is close enough
to take a day trip to (it’s just a 25-minute drive from
Inverness to Lochend, the top of Loch Ness).
