  2. Balblair Distillery, founded in 1790 near Edderton is a true gem in the whisky world. Known for its rich, full-bodied whiskies. Balblair's traditional approach stands in contrast to the more clinical methods of larger distilleries. At one time, the distillery even had its own railway station. William Matheson, who would later go on to found Glenmorangie, honed his craft here, gaining invaluable experience that would shape his future success.

  3. Dornoch, a charming town nestled in the Scottish Highlands, on the North Coast 500 - NC500 route, is home to the magnificent Dornoch Cathedral, where intricate stained glass windows cast a kaleidoscope of colors. Though Andrew Carnegie was born in Dunfermline, he made nearby Skibo Castle his holiday retreat until the outbreak of WWI, adding a touch of aristocratic flair to the town. Dornoch also carries a poignant history, as it was the site of Scotland's last witch burning in 1727, a somber end to the dark days of witch trials. Time for an optional coffee or sandwich.

  4. The Pictish Cadboll Stone is a mesmerizing ancient cross-slab from around the 8th century. It is adorned with intricate Celtic knotwork, enigmatic Pictish symbols, and striking depictions of warriors. This stone is a magnificent recarving by local artist Barry Grove. Here we will have dram and toast to Picts.

  5. Balintore, a charming Easter Ross fishing village, is steeped in myth and maritime heritage. The striking Mermaid of the North, sculpted by Steve Hayward in 2007, recalls a local legend of a fisherman who hides a mermaid’s tail to keep her on land. Though she bears his children, she eventually finds her tail and returns to the sea—leaving behind a haunting tale of love, loss and longing. Nearby, Hayward’s Salmon Sculpture, with three leaping fish, honours the village’s proud fishing traditions. Together, these sculptures form part of the Seaboard Trail, a celebration of folklore, faith, and coastal resilience.

About Invergordon

Invergordon is a small port on the Cromarty Firth in the Scottish Highlands, with wall murals, nearby distilleries and a deep-water harbour.

Invergordon stands on the northern shore of the Cromarty Firth, a large sheltered natural harbour, in the Highland area of Easter Ross. It was a Royal Navy base in both world wars, and its deep-water port still receives large ships. The town's walls are covered with murals showing local history, and a museum recalls the naval years, including the 1931 mutiny of sailors over pay.
