The Scottish Highlands are a beautiful part of Scotland. The Highlands in Scotland is a vast area which is the most sparsely populated of all of Scotland.

The main large towns in the Highlands are Fort William in the south of the Highlands, Inverness near the middle and Wick right up towards the most northerly point in the Highlands.

From Scrabster in the north of the Highlands (some 22 miles from Wick) it is possible to get ferries to Orkney and Shetland. Pick the right time of year and you can add whale watching in Orkney or Shetland to the other possibilities the Highlands and Islands have to offer.
