Description

Gaze across the vast landscapes of the iconic Scottish Highlands on a day trip from Inverness. Visit Dunrobin Castle, John O’Groats, and Wick, and keep your eyes peeled for wildlife sightings along the way. Depart Inverness and head north to Loch Fleet, where you might spot seals and native bird species and snap stunning photos. Next, visit the village of Golspie, a charming seaside resort on the North Sea coast, nestled beside Ben Bhraggie. Take a break for refreshments here before continuing to Dunrobin Castle. Dunrobin Castle, the ancestral home of Clan Sutherland, boasts a striking resemblance to a French chateau with its soaring spires and views over the Moray Firth. Take time to explore the castle, gardens, and museum (optional extra), or enjoy a snack in the tearoom. Before reaching John O’Groats, venture further into the Northern Highlands, to the area around Wick for a lunch stop. After our lunch break, we arrive at John O’Groats, the northernmost point on the British mainland. Stroll along the cliff path, take a photo at the iconic signpost, and marvel at the stunning coastal views. Keep an eye out for Atlantic puffins, grey seals, and possibly even orcas. As you begin your return to Inverness, stop for photos at Dunbeath Harbour and Brora, known for their golf courses and spectacular coastal scenery, before heading back home.
