Steer off the trodden track

Where to start? The famous 21-arched Glenfinnan viaduct near Fort William that featured in the Harry Potter films? Or how about the towering Grampian hills? There's always the Cairngorm massif and the jagged west coast stretching all the way from Argyll to Wester Ross.

Fancy an island escape? Catch a ferry from Ullapool in Ross-shire to the Outer Hebrides and into the windswept streets of Stornoway. During the jaw-widening crossing, soak up standing stones, lochs and white-sand beaches as you play spot the dolphin, whale, seal and shark if you're lucky (or brave) enough.
