Highland Games
-
These are great summer spectacles that take place in communities across the land. Most popular are the kilted strongmen in the “heavy events”, which include hurling monstrous hammers and tossing the caber. This is a tree trunk that must be lifted vertically, carried at a trot and tossed so that it turns end over end. Packed with bagpipes, dancers and athletes, these games are an essential part of any visit.
