• Clava Cairns - This site is often mentioned as the inspiration for the fictional Craigh na Dun standing stones in the Outlander series. In reality, Clava Cairns is an exceptionally well-preserved Bronze Age cemetery located near Inverness in the Scottish Highlands. Dating back approximately 4,000 years, the site features a unique combination of passage graves, ring cairns, and standing stones. Several of these stones feature prehistoric cup and ring marks—ancient circular carvings whose exact meaning remains a mystery.

• Cawdor Castle - Cawdor Castle is a romantic, 14th-century Scottish tower house and the ancestral home of the Thanes of Cawdor. A prime example of authentic Highland architecture, the castle is featured in the Outlander series and perfectly captures the atmosphere of both the books and the show. While famously linked to William Shakespeare’s Macbeth, the castle was actually built centuries after the historical king’s reign. It is also well known for the legendary holly tree around which the structure was originally constructed; the remains of this tree are still visible today in the lowest level of the tower.

• Clootie Well - This ancient, mystical site is centered around the tradition of tying fabric—or “cloots”—to trees to heal ailments. In Scots, “clootie” means cloth. These sacred sites feature trees located close to holy wells or springs. Traditionally, a rag or cloth is dipped into the water and tied to a tree to cure a sickness or ailment. This unique location aligns perfectly with the folklore and pagan themes explored throughout Outlander. It offers a tangible connection to the timeless, magical, and superstitious culture portrayed in the show.

• Beauly - A charming village near Inverness and a key location for the Outlander series. Located in the heart of Clan Fraser country, it serves as the historic home of Jamie Fraser’s ancestors and features the 13th-century Beauly Priory. While the site portrayed the fictional monastery of Saint Anne de Beaupré in the TV series, the books describe it as the location of the Lovat Fraser family tombs and the setting where Claire meets the seer, Maisri. Explore the roofless church and the surrounding graveyard, which contains many Fraser family headstones that reportedly inspired various character names in the series. We will also visit the Robertsons Farm in Beauly to get yourselves acquainted with a famous Highland Hairy Cow called Jamie along with his family and friends.

• Loch Ness Region - Home of our beloved Nessie. The loch is a pivotal location in both the novels and the television show, serving as the site for Claire and Frank’s cruise and the setting where Claire encounters the “water horse” during the 18th century. Beyond its specific scenes, Loch Ness and the surrounding Highlands provide the primary backdrop for the story’s beginning, including Claire’s journey back in time. The areas near the loch are also deeply tied to the historical Jacobite events and lore depicted throughout the series.

• Culloden Battlefield - This windswept moor marks the location where the 1745 Jacobite Rising came to a tragic and decisive end on April 16, 1746, serving as the site of the last pitched battle fought on British soil. The Battle of Culloden is a central historical event in the Outlander series, serving as the tragic climax for the Jacobite rebellion that Jamie and Claire Fraser spend two seasons trying to prevent.
