Hiking & Trekking Tours & Trips in Scottish Highlands
The Highlands serve up some fantastic hiking, with routes that really showcase what makes this geology so special. Our signature trek takes you through the North West Highlands UNESCO Geopark, where ancient glaciers have sculpted distinctive mountains like Cul Mor - a rewarding climb with views that stretch in every direction. Along the coastal cliffs north of Gairloch, our hikers regularly spot Atlantic seals, pods of dolphins and also various seabirds including gannets and kittiwakes. For those wanting to test themselves, the Black Cuillin on Skye offers serious hiking across rocky terrain and scree slopes; the climb up Bruach na Frithe is particularly worthwhile for its clear sightlines to Ben Nevis and the Outer Hebrides. Over on northern Skye, the Quiraing presents an intriguing route across landscapes formed by massive landslips, with a grassy summit plateau that our travelers say offers some of the best views around. Our customers consistently mention how much they appreciate our guides' deep knowledge of local geology, wildlife and history, especially their ability to adjust routes based on weather and group capabilities.
