The Trossachs National Park & Aberfoyle

We continue through the Trossachs National Park, often described as “the Highlands in Miniature” for its mix of lochs, forests, and rugged hills. This area is also famous as the home of legendary outlaw Rob Roy MacGregor. We’ll spend time exploring the landscapes and then stop in a traditional village such as Aberfoyle, where you’ll have the chance to relax and enjoy lunch surrounded by stunning scenery.Stirling Castle

Step back in time at the magnificent Stirling Castle, one of Scotland’s most important historical sites. Explore the lavish royal chambers, grand halls, and medieval defenses. Learn about kings and queens, including Mary, Queen of Scots, and discover why Stirling was known as the “Key to Scotland.”

The Kelpies
