Scotland: The Highlands
While many walking tours of Scotland miss out on the magic of Glencoe, this Country Walkers adventure lets you experience this breathtaking corner of the Scottish Highlands in all its pristine glory. Here, you’ll walk through emerald forests to the stony pinnacle of Signal Rock—admiring views of shimmering Loch Leven below. We’ve found an iconic hiker’s inn in Glencoe to host you—serving its own traditional cask-conditioned ales. Explore the shores of Loch Tay and discover ancient Scottish dwellings, in the evening, returning to your opulent lakeside estate. Tread in the footsteps of Rob Roy McGregor in Glen Ogle and explore historic Blair Castle—once the haunt of Mary Queen of Scots. With included visits to Glasgow and Edinburgh, the rustic beauty of the Highlands is contrasted by cities at the height of Scottish sophistication.
Highlights
- Taste the honey-smooth, smoky flavor of handmade single-malt whiskey at the Blair Athol Distillery, where water from the Grampian mountains blends with ancient Highland malt to create the mellow and deep, well-rounded signature taste.
- Cruise on beautiful Loch Katrine, the inspiration for Sir Walter Scott’s poem “Lady of the Lake” and the novel Rob Roy.
- Walk amid the splendor of Scotland’s peaceful interior, hiking through forests of ancient pines, past verdant pastures, and alongside gentle brooks and shimmering lochs.
- Learn how the hard-working Highland cows have adapted to the extreme weather conditions in the Highlands during a visit with this ancient cattle breed.
- Enter a world of privilege and splendor at historic Blair Castle—once the center of the 17th-century Jacobite rising, and home to the Atholl family for over seven centuries.

Gill McMillan
Having lived most of her life in Scotland, Gill McMillan takes great delight in sharing this beautiful landscape with others. She has been a full-time professional guide for the past 7 years, but her love for hiking started much earlier, taking her to places like Nepal, Morocco & Canada. Her greatest accomplishments include climbing all of Scotland’s 282 Munros completing the Camino de Santiago, and trekking the length of Scotland. Gill has picked up many skills during her adventures including her love of wildflowers and local folklore. Luckily, Scotland has an endless supply of stories for Gill to share with all CW guests.

Cat Trebilco
Cat Trebilco fell in love with Scotland at age 6 on a family visit and was a frequent visitor to the mountains of the Scottish Highlands before permanently moving to Edinburgh in 2012. Considering Scotland to be her spiritual home, and with her love of nature, wildlife, and the stunning views that Scotland has to offer, she became a part time mountain guide in 2009. By 2013, she had quit her corporate job to work full time in the great outdoors! Cat is also a qualified life coach and takes people out into nature to help them discover their true path in life. Cat loves to sing, which she often does when walking in the mountains, sometimes without noticing that she’s doing it!

Rob Richardson
Growing up on a small farm in northern England Rob Richardson always had an affinity for the outdoors and Scotland was a regular family holiday destination. With a desire to understand the natural world, Rob studied geology at university. Moving to Scotland in 2011, he set off to explore the highlands and islands of his home country, be it on foot or by bike. Rob now spends the majority of his time helping others discover the wonders of the great outdoors, whether through teaching geological field classes, mountain guiding, or helping visitors get a little off the beaten track.
