From exploring historic sites to eating traditional Scottish cuisine, here's how to make the most of your Easter getaway in the Highlands:
Exploring Highland Heritage
Start your Easter weekend by immersing yourself in the rich history and cultural heritage of the Scottish Highlands. Visit iconic landmarks such as the majestic Eilean Donan Castle, perched dramatically on a small island at the confluence of three lochs. Explore the mysterious ruins of Urquhart Castle overlooking the shores of Loch Ness, or wander through the ancient standing stones of Clava Cairns, believed to date back over 4,000 years.
Scenic Adventures
For those seeking outdoor adventures, the Scottish Highlands offer a playground of rugged terrain and breathtaking vistas. Lace up your hiking boots and embark on a trek through the dramatic landscapes of Glen Coe, renowned for its soaring peaks and sweeping valleys. Alternatively, hop aboard the Jacobite Steam Train, famously known as the Hogwarts Express from the Harry Potter films, and journey through the stunning scenery of the West Highland Line.
Indulgent Dining
No visit to the Highlands would be complete without savouring the region's renowned culinary delights. Indulge in hearty Scottish fare at a traditional pub like The Clachaig Inn, where you can sample dishes such as haggis, neeps, and tatties paired with a fine single malt whisky. For a taste of luxury, book a table at The Dipping Lugger, one of the Highlands' top-rated Michelin-starred restaurants, where world-class chefs showcase the finest local ingredients in innovative and exquisite dishes.
Accommodation Recommendation: The Torridon
For the ultimate Highland retreat, escape to The Torridon, a luxury hotel nestled amidst the stunning landscapes of Wester Ross. Set within a 19th-century Scottish baronial mansion, The Torridon offers elegant rooms and suites with breathtaking views of Loch Torridon and the surrounding mountains. Unwind in style with a stroll through the hotel's manicured gardens, indulge in a treatment at the spa, or sample the finest Scottish cuisine at the hotel's award-winning restaurant. With its blend of elegance and warm Highland hospitality, The Torridon promises an unforgettable Easter weekend escape.
Embrace Easter Traditions
Celebrate Easter Sunday like a true Highlander by taking part in traditional festivities and customs. Attend a local Easter service at one of the region's historic churches, where you can join in hymns and prayers surrounded by stunning stained glass windows and ancient architecture. For a family-friendly activity, participate in an Easter egg hunt amidst the scenic grounds of a Highland estate, or indulge in a delicious Easter Sunday roast dinner featuring succulent Scottish lamb or roast beef.
