  • CAIRNGORMS NATIONAL PARK / TROSSACHS NATIONAL PARK Wildlife Guide How Many of These Have You Spotted in the Forest?
    CAIRNGORMS NATIONAL PARK / TROSSACHS NATIONAL PARK Wildlife GuidE How many of these have you spotted in the forest? SPECIES CAIRNGORMS NATIONAL PARK Capercaillie The turkey-sized Capercaillie is one of Scotland’s most characteristic birds, with 80% of the UK's species living in Cairngorms National Park. Males are a fantastic sight to behold with slate-grey plumage, a blue sheen over the head, neck and breast, reddish-brown upper wings with a prominent white shoulder flash, a bright red eye ring, and long tail. Best time to see Capercaille: April-May at Cairngorms National Park Pine Marten Pine martens are cat sized members of the weasel family with long bodies (65-70 cm) covered with dark brown fur with a large creamy white throat patch. Pine martens have a distinctive bouncing run when on the ground, moving front feet and rear feet together, and may stop and stand upright on their haunches to get a better view. Best time to see Pine Martens: June-September at Cairngorms National Park Golden Eagle Most of the Cairngorm mountains have just been declared as an area that is of European importance for the golden eagle. If you spend time in the uplands and keep looking up to the skies you may be lucky enough to see this great bird soaring around ridgelines, catching the thermals and looking for prey. Best time to see Golden Eagles: June-September in Aviemore Badger Badgers are still found throughout Scotland often in surprising numbers. Look out for the signs when you are walking in the countryside such as their distinctive paw prints in mud and scuffles where they have snuffled through the grass.

  • Scotland – Edinburgh to Loch Lomond
    Scotland – Edinburgh to Loch Lomond Trip Summary The very best experiences of Scotland, all in one itinerary; you’ll taste the whisky, hike the corbetts and other hills, walk the moorlands, canoe a loch, and ferry out to wild islands. You’ll explore castle ruins, take tea, learn of ancient burial sites, absorb history from the Neolithic times, to those of revolutionary knights, to the Industrial Revolution. From the stunning, wild countryside, to the cobblestone streets of Edinburgh, you’ll immerse yourself in the best Scotland has to offer. Itinerary Day 1: Edinburgh Airport / Pitlochry Your guide will collect you from Edinburgh Airport (or your accommodation if you chose to arrive prior) • Transfer to the picturesque town of Pitlochry in Highland Perthshire • Visit local whisky distillery for a tour and tasting to ease you into highland life • Overnight at Craigatin House (L) Day 2: Pitlochry / Bealach na Searmoin / Killiecrankie From our Pitlochry base, we have a choice of several excellent hikes and your guide will make suggestions based on interests, ability and weather conditions. Possibilities include: Hike summit of a local Corbett (a mountain between 2500 and 3000 feet), taking us across moorland before a steep rocky ascent to the summit (on a clear day you see for miles and are able to identity several mountains in the surrounding areas) • A lower-level option includes a hike over the Bealach na Searmoin (Pass of the Sermon) to the Soldier’s Leap at Killiecrankie • This takes us over a moorland pass before descending to a river

Rarely is this more true than in this You’ve never undertaken a golf break like this one, but after you month’s selected area. A car, for instance, do, we reckon you’ll be searching hard for another similar one. can only be one part of your transport. Sea and air, indeed, are arguably more WORDS: Chris Bertram PHOTOGRAPHY: David Cannon, Getty useful. It would be convenient to describe our chosen area as ‘Scotland’s south west islands’. We can’t though, because three of the courses aren’t on an island – it just seems like they are. Hence, the map over the page has never been more useful. It perfectly illustrates the area we are covering as well as the extent of the challenge; a golf weekend in Southport is altogether more straightforward. But a lot less fun. Our trip takes in three main stops: the Machrihanish area near Campbeltown on mainland Scotland (albeit a slim finger of it); The Machrie on the Isle of Islay and the island of Arran. They are all fairly close to each as the crow flies but no one method of transport fits all. There are many ways to tackle the problem and GW has had experiences of two. Both were good. One option is to enlist the services of the Kintyre Express.
