THE ULTIMATE ONE-WEEK FAMILY ITINERARY TO THE SCOTTISH HIGHLANDS

Scotland’s beauty is hardly a secret, but it can still come as a surprise to discover just how stunning the SCOTTISH HIGHLANDS are. From great glens and towering bens to glassy lochs and rugged shores, this is an excitingly wild landscape that, for both children and adults alike, provides the ultimate in outdoor adventure. With such striking natural scenery, and some spectacularly located campsites, the Highlands are also a perfect place to explore by campervan, and we’ve provided details of overnight stops throughout our itinerary.

In just one week on the road, you’ll complete a circuit that takes in the best of the region, from Loch Lomond to Loch Ness and out into the northern reaches of the Isle of Skye. Along the way, you’ll hike through Glen Coe, glide over the Nevis Range in a gondola and spot sea otters at Kyle Rhea. The weather can be temperamental and the midges are a scourge in summer, but come at the right time – the May and October half terms can be perfect – and you’ll wonder why every holiday can’t be just like this.
