Small-group storytelling walk explores the places where Scotland’s myths linger in the landscape, fairy hills, and river crossings.
A 2.5-hour storytelling walk into the myth, folklore, history and landscape of Inverness.
Beginning at Tomnahurich, Fairy Hill, long held to be a gateway to the Otherworld, the walk moves through liminal spaces where stories surface: kelpies at the Ness Islands, the lingering presence of the Picts and their symbol stones, and the shaping hand of the Cailleach in the hills themselves. It ends near the river at the Old High Church graveyard, beside Leakey's Bookshop, where stories continue to live and breathe.
Not your typical tour — a walk through the myths and legends that make a place enchanting.
