-
Impressive ruins, but most famous for the “Declaration of Arbroath”, Scotland’s eloquent charter for independence, a copy of which is on show.
-
A bright white castle, impressive in terms of size, location and contents (the Bonnie Prince left his gloves and pipe here, (see Blair Castle) ).
-
A village of great charm and character, with its restored historic street, the noble ruins of its 14th-century cathedral and gorgeous riverside walks.
-
Two outstanding examples of engineering, one a red giant of Victorian muscle, the other a modern suspended thread. Best seen lit up at night.
-
A knife-cut glen of wild scenery. Drive to the end for the best walks, or plan a long trek to Lochnagar and Loch Muick – tough hiking, but sensational.
-
Very picturesque glen noted for its rare plants. At the end, a former drove road climbs to give wonderful views from Monega Hill and Glas Maol.
-
The combined attractions of a famous battle site and an idyllic river gorge. Admire the famous Soldier’s Leap, but don’t try it! Queen Victoria loved this spot (and she was famously hard to please).
-
Internationally-important tidal basin and mecca for seafowl and waders. In autumn 35,000 pink-footed geese stop here to refuel during their southward migration.
-
It’s hard to believe just how fascinating boats, nets and fish can be. First-class overview of the history of the fish supper.

Voted “European Industrial Museum of the Year”, this is an invigorating presentation of the jute industry, the material upon which Dundee founded its urban economy.
