Set out on one of the famous "Haggis Adventures" specially designed for backpackers and young travelers.

Accompanied by your entertaining “Haggis” Guide you will take the most scenic route from Edinburgh to Loch Ness and experience Scotland like never before. Travel past the imposing ramparts of Stirling Castle and skirt the Rob Roy country before crossing the wilds of Rannoch Moor. Enjoy views of Fort William and Britain’s highest mountain, Ben Nevis, before taking on the Great Glen through the village of Fort Augustus.

Spend some time exploring the ruins, learning about the legend of the Loch Ness monster that is believed to be living in the depths of this 600-foot lake. Trace the entire shoreline of Loch Ness (look out for the Monster!) to the Highland Capital of Inverness.

Journey back through the stunning beauty of the Cairngorms National Park before climbing over the wild and lonely Drumochter Pass. Head south into Perthshire, Big Tree Country - a land of forests, rivers and mountains.
