You might have seen them in the movies, but this is your chance to see the Highland Games firsthand. Prepare to soak up the unique atmosphere and experience the excitement as you enjoy a truly memorable day celebrating the Highland scenery and culture.

Leave Edinburgh behind and travel deep into the heart of Scotland to discover the picturesque towns and villages that host the Highland Games.

The Highland Games date back over 900 years and are regarded as the ultimate test of strength between Clans.
