OUTLANDER TRAIL

OUTLANDER TRAIL

Over in the ancient Kingdom of Fife, we visit Falkland, the setting for 1940’s Inverness. Explore the quaint streets or chase Jamie’s ghostly figure around the village square. Afterwards, we travel to colourful Culross, which starred as Cranesmuir, where Claire and Geillis Duncan were accused of witchcraft.

Saving the best ‘til last, our final stop is at Blackness Castle, the fictional setting for Fort William in Outlander, home to Captain Jack Randall’s worst acts of violence. We get the chance to view the jaw-dropping Forth Bridges before we return to the capital in the early evening. The perfect end to an awesome day!

*Please note: There are dates throughout the year where Midhope Castle and Doune Castle are closed for estate activity and filming.

A real Outlander fan will recognise it as Castle Leoch, the seat of Clan MacKenzie. Doune Castle is one of the best-preserved medieval strongholds in Scotland. Built in the 14th century, the caste has survived through bloody wars and Scottish rebellions. The castle also featured as a filming setting for Game of Thrones!
