Northwest Scotland


Listen Later

Northwest Scotland is wild, rugged and remote.

And absolutely stunning!

It's one of my favorite places in all of Scotland.

This is where you to go see the incredible beauty of mountains, lochs, moors and glens.

It's in Northwest Scotland that you see deer, eagles, dolphins and whales.

And it's where you go to slow down and let yourself be.

Oh, and if you're into geology, you'll love it.

Yes, it takes more time and effort to get here.

But it is worth it!
