Culloden Battlefield, Clava Cairns, Loch Ness and Urquhart Castle

A great day to visit iconic places in the Inverness-shire region: Culloden Battlefield Clava Cairns Loch Ness Urquhart Castle

Description

A great day to visit iconic places in the Inverness-shire region.

Culloden Battlefield

A must-visit place while visiting the Inverness area. Approximately 15 minutes from the city center you will find the battlefield where the deadliest battle happened - the year was 1746. Jacobite supporters seeking to restore the Stuart monarchy to the British thrones gathered to fight the Duke of Cumberland's government troops.

Culloden was the last pitched battle on British soil and, in less than an hour, around 1,300 men were slain – about 1,250 of them Jacobites.

Clava Cairns

Dated 4,000 years ago, Clava Cairns is a Bronze Age cemetery located a few minutes from Culloden Battlefield. The well-preserved prehistoric site invites us to explore how the past civilization utilized the area to make their sacred rituals.

Loch Ness and Urquhart Castle

Driving on, we will be heading toward the famous and mysterious Loch Ness. Loch Ness is 22.5 miles long and it is the biggest loch in the UK by volume, with enough fresh water to supply England and Wales. After having seen Ness (yes, you did see Ness), we will be taking you to the ancient ruins of Urquhart Castle by Loch Ness. Standing perched above the deepest point of the loch, the castle is very popular with tourists and it is worth visiting inside.
