Scotland: Highlands & Islands

One of Cadogan's most popular titles has been thoroughly revised and updated. The guide covers all aspects of Scotland's most-visited region: from well-preserved traditions such caber-tossing and the story-telling of the bards and fiddlers, to some of the last wildernesses of Europe -- from the Mull of Kintyre to the northernmost tip of the Shetland isles. There is expert advice on the best places to visit; where to ski, walk, windsurf, fish and star-gaze; as well as where to find some of the finest whisky distilleries in the world.
