Highlights
  • The Kelpies & The Helix - As you drive past the majestic Kelpies, marvel at these towering horse-head sculptures glistening in the winter light. Although we won’t stop, their imposing presence is a sight to behold, especially with a backdrop of frost-kissed landscapes
  • Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park - Enter the enchanting Trossachs National Park, where the winter season transforms the park into a serene wonderland. On many occasions during the winter, snow-dusted trees and frozen lochs could create a magical atmosphere.
    Make a stop to take in the wonderful scenery, and perhaps a warming morning coffee.
  • Rannoch Moor - Drive across the desolate and beautiful Rannoch Moor, where the vast, often snow-covered moorland stretches out in all directions. The crisp winter air and the stark beauty of this remote area make it an unforgettable experience.
  • Glencoe - Arrive in Glen Coe, known for its dramatic landscapes and history. The towering, snow-capped mountains and the glen’s rugged beauty are even more striking in winter. Stop for a photo or two and enjoy the tranquility of this hauntingly beautiful place
  • Fort William - Drive through the town of Fort William, situated in the shadows of Ben Nevis. Marvel at the stunning views of the Nevis Range, and its majestic winter beauty.
  • Great Glen Way - Drive through the Great Glen: Continue your journey through the Great Glen, a natural fault line that provides some of the most stunning scenery in Scotland. In winter, the snow-capped peaks and partially frozen lochs create a picturesque and serene drive.
  • Fort Augustus - Reach Fort Augustus, nestled on the banks of Loch Ness. Warm up in a cozy, local eatery with hearty Scottish cuisine or a quick light bite - there are plenty of options. After lunch, take a leisurely stroll to the loch’s edge and try your luck at spotting the elusive Loch Ness Monster. The calm, wintry waters of Loch Ness add an element of mystery and charm.
  • Cairngorms National Park - Enter the Cairngorms National Park, where winter enhances the park’s natural beauty. The snow-covered forests and mountains create a breathtaking winter wonderland. Perhaps choose to stop for a quick photo
  • Pitlochry - Arrive in the charming Victorian town of Pitlochry. Enjoy a brief stroll through the town, perhaps visiting a local café. The cozy atmosphere of Pitlochry in winter, with its twinkling lights and festive charm, is the epitome of Scottish coorie.
  • Forth Bridge - Conclude your tour by driving back to Edinburgh, crossing the iconic Forth Bridges. The illuminated bridges against the winter night sky offer a stunning view as you make your way back to the city.
