Your Scorland car rental starts in Edinburg.
Edinburgh are among the world's most beautiful cities, and is on Unesco's coveted list of world heritage. An old, charming town with pleasant streets, pubs, shops and with Edinburgh Castle tower on top of a cliff at the end of the famous route, the Royal Mile.
The oldest part of Edinburgh Castle, the small St. Margaret's Chapel, dating from the year 1076, but the first fortress was built here around. 500 AD
The location is unique as an extinguish volcano forms the perfect foundation to build a fortress. Fortress is a gigantic monument on the top of the high volcano crater.
The next day is the trip to Pitlochry, which has two distilleries. We visit one of Scotland's oldest distilleries Blair Athol Distillery. Home of Bell's. Known for its good whiskey. Distillers are idyllic with well-kept lawns and small bridges near the water, a small river flowing past. The raw stone buildings and trees are completely black alcohol sponge, the closer they are in storage building. Besides a thorough review of production, there are many details to get on the tour. In Pitlochry is also Scotland's smallest distillery - Edradour Distillery, which is known to be the smallest, but not the best.
Then goes the trip to Aviemore which shows signs of being a tourist town, which is not something to write about. From a café we have a view over the area to the Cairngorm Mountains, which is Britain's leading ski area with around 30 runs. We can discern a path up the hill. So we run away. Underway in Glenmore Forest Park we will stop at Loch Morlich. A beautiful situated Sunday with a nice sandy beach and the mountains in the background.
Only 9 miles from Aviemore lies Cairngorm Ski Center with panoramic views over the area http://www.cairngormmountain.com. While we Traver around here, we see a large flock of elk walk and graze a little further down. It is cool here, but a beautiful sunset.
