A once in a lifetime experience at a Scottish Highland Games; from tossing the caber, putting the shot and throwing the hammer, to the skirl of bagpipes and the twirl of kilts... you'll see and hear them all.
Originally an athletic contest between Clans dating back over 900 years, Highland Games (or Gatherings) are a fantastic spectacle and highlights include Highland dancing, pipe band displays, hammer throwing, tug-of-war, wrestling and, of course, tossing the caber. We have devised a special programme of day tours leaving from Edinburgh to a selection of Games throughout the Highlands. Each has its own local charm and character. We also include a visit to the world famous Braemar Games.
For further information on the Braemar Gathering please see http://www.braemargathering.org/links.htm
