Scottish Highlands

Lochs, glens, castles and whisky along some of Europe’s wildest roads.

The Highlands combine moody lochs, the mountains of Glencoe and Torridon, castles like Eilean Donan and whisky distilleries with remote single-track roads — best as a slow road trip that includes the Isle of Skye. Expect changeable weather and long summer evenings.
