Perched atop Castle Hill, Stirling Castle is a historic fortress that has played a pivotal role in Scotland’s history. The castle’s impressive architecture spans various periods, from the Renaissance Royal Palace to the mediaeval Great Hall. Visitors can explore the battlements for panoramic views of the surrounding countryside, delve into the castle’s rich history, and witness live historical reenactments.

Stop 3: National Wallace Monument

Towering over the city of Stirling, the National Wallace Monument commemorates Sir William Wallace (the real life Braveheart), a Scottish knight who played a significant role in the Wars of Scottish Independence. Visitors can climb the tower’s spiral staircase, stopping at different levels to learn about key events in Scottish history and to pay homage to one of Scotland’s national heroes.

Stop 4: Dunblane Cathedral

Rising majestically along the Forth and Clyde Canal, The Kelpies are a pair of colossal equine sculptures that pay homage to Scotland’s industrial and mythical heritage.
