Top 10 Most Beautiful Places In Scotland For Nature Lovers

Top 10 Most Beautiful Places In Scotland For Nature Lovers

Scotland is part of the United Kingdom, with Edinburgh being its capital. The only larger city than the capital is Glasgow and these two are visited by so many tourists every year. However, what makes Scotland so special is not only the vibrant city life that it offers, but something more wonderful that cannot be compared to anything that a city offers.

Castles, green highlands and lowlands, forests, lochs, rivers and national parks – Scotland has it all and every piece of its landscape is so perfectly designed by nature that you will be amazed like never before. The country offers so many beautiful places to be seen, that a regular 10 day vacation won’t be enough. You will understand why Scotland is the perfect country for nature lovers!

1. Three Sisters, Glencoe
Many tourists come here to see the dramatic beauty of Beinn Fhada, Gearr Aonach and Aonach Dubh, all three together known as the Three Sisters. These three are ridges from the Bidean nam Bian, a complex mountain located in the south of Glencoe in the Scottish Highlands. Glencoe is considered to be Scotland’s second most popular and scenic Highland glen, but the gateway to the highlands too. Here you will find all the mountain fun you can possible imagine, including for family time too.

2. Luskentyre Beach, Isle of Harris
The Luskentyre Beach is one of UK’s best beaches and certainly the best one on the west coast of South Harris in the Outer Hebrides. What makes this beach so special is the long, white sand beaches and dunes and the turquoiuse water. There’s nothing better than enjoying the beauty of nature on this sandy coastline, being surrounded with the Harris Hills and Mountains. Besides the beach fun, if you show at the right time, you might even spot wild ponies, eagles, seals and even dolphins.
3. Trossachs National Park
The Trossachs National Park together with the Loch Lomond became operational in 2002 and were officially opened by Princess Anne. The park is split in four distinct areas and each of it is going to offer you amazing view – from mountains to lowland landscape, from lochs to rivers – everything that you would love to see in nature. The National Park has 21 Munros (mountains above 3,000ft), 20 Corbetts (mountains between 2,500ft and 3,000ft), 22 larger lochs and about 50 rivers and large burns.

4. The Old Man of Storr, Isle of Skye
The Old Man of Storr is a large pinnacle of rock that you won’t find anywhere else, except on the island of Skye. It is located in the north of the isle in an area called “Trotternish“. The Old Man is also the most popular route walk on the isle and covers a distance of almost 4 km. The route is suitable for almost anybody, but at the foot of the Old Man you need to be careful, as the road becomes steep and scramble.

5. The Quiraing, Isle of Skye
Here’s another attraction on the Isle of Skye. It is the Quiraing walk that passes through one of the most scenic Scottish landscapes. We are sure that the whole green scene, the high cliffs, the pinnacles of rock, all the surrounding will take your breath away! The Quiraing walk covers a distance of almost 7 km and it takes on average two hours to complete it. It’s not suitable for everyone because it is classified as “hard” when it comes to difficulty and “medium” when it comes to the walk’s length, but if you think you can manage it, it’s definitely worth the try.
6. Loch Awe
Loch Awe or Lochawe is located in the region of Argull and Bute, and it is also the third largest and the first longest loch in Scotland. The loch is known for trout fishing and for the nearby village that has the same name. It is a very small village, it only has a 19th century chapel and a railway station and streamer pier. Near the loch you can see this old castle – such a Scottish scenery, isn’t it?

7. The Old Man of Hoy, Orkneys
Located on the island of Hoy, the Old Man of Hoy is one of the oldest sea stacks in the United Kingdom. It stands close to Rackwick Bay and is approximately 250 hundred years old. However, it is possible that soon it will collapse in the sea. That being said, take your chance while it is still there and if you love climbing, you can take one of the seven routes and climb it.

8. Northern Lights, Shetland
Maybe you didn’t know this by now, but the Northern lights can be seen from some parts of the country. The best time of the year to see the Aurora Borealis is during autumn and winter, when there are longer periods of darkness. You can spot the Northern Lights from the northern parts of the country, such as Shetland in Orkney, Lewis in Harris, Moray Coast, the most northern part of Isle of Skye and others.

England is the home to many beautiful villages – some of which are considered to be not only in England, but in the whole world as well. Always talking about the vibrant city life, we often tend to forget how amazing the countryside can be and this country proves us exactly that.

20 Things to do in Glasgow, Scotland Travel Guide

20 Things to do in Glasgow, Scotland travel guide video transcript:

In today’s video we’re going to be showing you around Glasgow, Scotland. This is a city that we visited last autumn and then again this summer, and on both visits, we ate like kings and queens because it turns out, Glasgow is a great destination for foodies.

Since we never got around to making a travel guide on our first visit, today we’re going to be combining the footage from both of those trips to show you some of the best things to do in Glasgow and also some of the best places to eat and drink it. So let’s get started!

And that’s a wrap for our visit to Glasgow, Scotland. We loved our two visits and we’d gladly return for a 3rd. This is an amazing city for foodies and there are so many great bars, restaurants, breweries, and distilleries to visit.

Also FYI - if you’re already visiting Edinburgh, Glasgow is just a short 50-minute train ride away, and it’s a city with its own unique vibe.

If there are any other fun things to do in Glasgow that you’d like to share with travellers, feel free to leave your suggestions in the comments below. Wishing you happy travels!

This is part of our Travel in Scotland video series showcasing Scottish food, Scottish culture and Scottish cuisine.

We cooperated with Visit Scotland for part of this project.

A Guide to Scotland's Cities

Scotland’s cities… where do we start? Our seven Scottish cities each boasts a welcoming atmosphere, fascinating culture, and hundreds of incredible attractions that you can explore by foot, bike, bus or car. One minute you could be walking down medieval streets, visiting top attractions and chatting to the friendly locals and the next you could be wandering through the glorious countryside, surrounded by glistening lochs and towering mountains.

The capital city, Edinburgh, is where past and present collide. Filled to the brim with fascinating attractions, it’s a place where prehistoric volcanos, medieval streets and buildings and modern architecture meet – you won’t be lost for something to gaze in awe at. Summer in Edinburgh is on a whole other level. Our streets are overflowing with acts, performances, and vibrant colours, with something new around every corner during Edinburgh summer festivals. Our winter festivals are a real gem too – market stalls filled with mince pies, mulled wine, and Christmas-y gift, complete with a warm atmosphere that’ll last for days.

Glasgow is a cultural hub, and it’s perfect if you love music, an arty vibe, and eclectic bars and pubs amongst other things. With hundreds of creative venues, you won’t miss out on shows and performances that take place throughout the year. Glasgow is a UNESCO City of Music, so you are bound to come across a few up and coming musicians and bands whilst you are here. Aside from the brilliant events programme, uncover the fascinating museums, quirky vintage and boutique shops, striking architecture, diverse art galleries and much more across the city.

Stirling used to be Scotland’s capital, up until 1437, and has been the setting of some major historic moments, including the Battle of Bannockburn and the many dramas of Stirling Castle. Explore the pubs, bars and restaurants where you can taste some delicious local produce and soak up the lively nightlife.

Dundee is stacked full of culture and it’s the UK’s first UNESCO City of Design, meaning it has lots of creative spaces, quirky buildings and boasts a fun and friendly vibe. Next door, Perth is a beautiful city, located only an hour away from Edinburgh, and is sprinkled with fascinating historic attractions, exhibitions, theatres, galleries, museums and more to explore.

On the east coast, Aberdeen is full of stunning granite buildings and architecture that dates back centuries, along with a stunning seafront and harbour where you can often spot the resident pod of dolphins playing in the waves.

And in the north, Inverness is Scotland’s most northerly city and is often known as the ‘capital of the Highlands’. The city is entwined with Outlander connections, so if you are a fan of the TV show, Inverness should definitely be stopping point for you.

Visiting Scotland’s cities is a must do. There are a variety to choose from and each feature a unique character to explore, along with exciting things to see and do in each.
