A wonderful 250 mile trip from Edinburgh to the Isle of Skye with Scottish wildlife abounding. For history and architecture lovers, visit Linlithglow Palace, Stirling Castle, the (William) Wallace Monument, Fort William’s West Highland Museum and the wonderful Eilean Donan Castle on Skye. Fresh seafood is a near necessity, especially scallops, mussels and oysters. For nature lovers there are seals and otters, highland cows, hare, foxes, deer and any number of birds. Lochs galore, and the coves and beaches on the Atlantic at Morar in particular are outstanding, fishing in Arisaig and Mallaig, with the final destination, the Isle of Skye, with sea cliffs and rocky outcrops.
