Hiking Tours in the Scottish Highlands

The highlands.

Hike Scotland's most famous long-distance trail - the West Highland Way
Discover remote glens and well-trod paths alike in the Highlands
Visit Scottish castles with their proud history, myth and legends
Take the Jacobite Steam Train across Glenfinnan viaduct to the west coast
Visit the whisky distillery in the characterful village of Blair Atholl
Traverse the Rannoch Moor, home to herds of red deer, to Glencoe

Immerse yourself in the rich landscapes and heritage of a Scottish Highlands adventure. Escape the crowds on exhilarating walks in heather-clad mountain glens, past rushing burns and silent lochs.

You can walk a long-distance trail, such as the famous West Highland Way , best described as Scotland’s finest long-distance walk, or cover more ground with a drive & hike, such as our Highlands and Islands Discovery tour. We also have Slow Adventure tours which although still focused on great walks, allow time for cultural and historical exploration too. The Walking in the Scottish Highlands tour immerses you in incredible Scottish history and you can visit many castles and museums en route. From peace and tranquility during the day to that famously warm Highland welcome when you arrive at your accommodation for the night, the Highlands are the Scotland from your imagination. You can also try a Rail & Hike and admire the Scottish countryside from your train seat. An example is the Highlands & Isle of Skye Rail and Hike which has some of the best railway journeys in the world alongside impressive walks.

Since 2003 Macs Adventure has been helping walkers discover Scotland on foot. We have the local knowledge (our office in based in Glasgow!) to find the experience that will fit your needs. All you have to do it ask our expert team and they can answer any questions you may have.
