Culloden Battlefield
See the battlefield as its preserved this day, walk through the paved areas, passing both the Jacobite and Government lines. View the Clan stones and large cairn identifying the many Clans that fought together. From an "Outlander" perspective witness the Clan Fraser stone, referred to in the Outlander Series where "Jamie" experienced the battlefield itself. There is a visitors centre on site that provides an indoor information tour (self guided) but incurs additional costs to enter the tour. Restrooms, café and shop are free to enter.
Clava Cairns
A short distance from Culloden Battlefield finds the ancient Clava Cairns. This location is well visited and the Cairns and standing stones are believed to be approximately 4000 years old. This is a well maintained area and although not paved is accessible to all. Access to the centre of the Cairns is also available. The largest of the standing stones is very popular to recreate that "Outlander " moment of transportation through the stone and back in time as done by both Clair and Brianna many times!!!!
Cawdor Castle
Travel to the country village of Cawdor a few miles to the East of both Culloden and Clava. Cawdor Castle dates back to 1179 and is located on the outskirts of the village in an idyllic setting with its vast gardens and grounds.
