Day 5 – CULLODEN VISITOR CENTRE & CLAVA CAIRNS

Motor a short distance to Culloden Moor so you can tour the Visitor Centre. Walk around the battlefield where, on April 16, 1746, British Government forces defeated the army of Prince Charles Edward Stuart in just one hour and ended hopes of restoring the Jacobite Stuarts to the British throne. Also see the Frasers Stone, which is dedicated to all the Frasers who died tragically on that April day. Head back to Inverness to see the Clava Cairns, which give off a peaceful and inspiring atmosphere all of their own. In the popular series, Outlander, the Clava Cairns are referred to by the name of “Split Stone” and are how the main heroine, Clare Randall, ends up travelling back to the 18th century. Next, drive to Fort Augustus, where you will take a boat ride on Loch Ness. This excursion will allow you to take in the lovely scenery and if you want you can also keep an eye out for the famous monster, “Nessie.”
