Day 1: GIRONA - GLASGOW AIRPORT - AYR

Wednesday, March 19, 2008

Our flight company was Ryanair, despite the criticisms we have had very few problems with them and they are always quite punctual. The flight left Girona airport and landed in Glasgow at night. It is a good time since there is little traffic and being the first time we drove on the left, we preferred it.
We stayed at Turas-Mara Guesthouse, in the village of Ayr 10 minutes from Glasgow airport. Although we arrived after 12 we were waiting for check-in and had parking.

Day 2: AYR - CASTLE OF DUNDONALD - CASTLE OF BOTHWELL - GLASGOW - STIRLING

Thursday, March 20, 2008

In the early morning we travel by rental car to Dundonald Castle, it is a semi-ruined medieval castle that is located on a small hill near the town.
At the time we arrived it was closed so we took a walk outside and took the car to go to Glasgow. Before arriving in Glasgow we stop at Bothwell Castle, it is a large medieval castle in southern Lanarkshire, near the Clyde River, we enter to visit it is rectangular and what is preserved are the castle walls, the towers and some stay, As it is the first one we see inside, it makes us excited but it is not one of the best.
We arrive in Glasgow still in the morning and before lunch we enter its famous cathedral, which is next to the university area, there we bought the Explorer ja that in the castle of Bothwell they did not have it, it is a pass that you have free entrance for the Most of the castles and monuments of Scotland, we took the 14-day one, in each site you visit with the Explorer they mark you with a different stamp and in the end it becomes a good souvenir of Scotland, a map also comes out with the monuments that you can visit , you save a lot of money. We managed to fill everything and when we had it almost full and we taught it to mark it, they were surprised that we had done so much, it is also true that some of the monuments we saw without the Explorer would not have gone.
You can book the Explorer Pass for 5 or 14 days here in advance.
Glasgow Cathedral is the largest church in all of Scotland. Of Presbyterian worship, it was founded during the seventh century. The most beautiful of the cathedral is the crypt or low church, in which the patron saint of Glasgow San Mungo is buried, the cathedral also has one of the best collections of modern stained glass, outside the cathedral there is a necropolis.
A good option to get to know the most interesting places in Glasgow is to book this free tour with a guide in Spanish.

Glasgow Cathedral


Near the cathedral there is the San Mungo Museum, at the entrance of the museum you can see an authentic Zen garden and inside we wanted to see El Cristo de Dalí, but they had moved it and we were left wanting, we took a quick tour of the museum where there was a sample of objects of the different religions, it was a subject that did not go much with us and we left.
We walk to Provand 's Lordship which is also located in this area, it is the oldest house in Glasgow, its three floors show us how life was there in the 1500.
We went to eat and headed to Stirling to visit the castle and the William Wallace monument.

William Wallace Monument


Stirling Castle, another place that what to see in Scotland, is a historic castle that was built on top of the "castle hill", a peak of volcanic origin, and is surrounded by three of its sides by cliffs cut to peak. Stirling Castle is listed as a National Monument.
The castle also houses the headquarters, as well as the museum, of a British Army Regiment, the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders Regiment, even though that regiment no longer has its base in place.
Most of the main buildings of the castle date from the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, although some buildings are even earlier, specifically the fourteenth century.
After touring it is truly immense and has spectacular views, we went to see the monument to William Wallace, it is located on a hill where you can see the entire city of Stirling, you can go with a small bus for those who do not want to walk anymore that the climb is quite steep, we went on foot and we fell a trickle of water and stone that were fine. Under the hill, where you park the car there is a kind of monument recreating Mel Gibson in the movie Braveheart that you really wonder what makes it so horrible there.
The monument is a tower, it is a large tower 67 meters high, opened in 1869, in which Wallace's life and struggle for the independence of Scotland is reflected through different floors. Upon entering, if you wish, they leave you some free audio guides.
On the first floor, there is the sword that belonged to Wallace. We did not enter, we were content to take pictures of the spectacular view and the monument outside, we were too exhausted.
We went down and we went to the hotel to rest.
A good option if you are in Edinburgh and want to visit this area is to book a guided tour in Spanish to Glasgow, Lomond and Katrine lakes.

It is the first national park in Scotland. The park also houses an incredible assortment of flora and fauna within a landscape that joins the lowlands of Central Scotland with the rugged terrain of the highlands.
We left the town of Callender the first thing we visited was a small waterfall that is near there after parking the rental car and walking about 2 km, there we saw the first deer released from our trip.

We arrived at Lake Katrina, you can take a boat trip in summer but in April it was very cold.
We travel to Inverary to see its castle, the construction of the Inveraray castle that began around the year 1745 and was extended by the year 1746, merging several architectural styles such as Baroque and Gothic influenced by various European countries. But in addition to its impressive architecture that is surrounded by four towers, and several hectares of garden and forest, the castle houses a series of relics from centuries ago that makes it even more valuable. Some of its cultural treasures are furniture and decoration pieces from the 17th century. It also has a large number of 16th-century weapons in a room that has the highest ceilings in Scotland.
It is worth entering at least one of these restored castles. The castle and its gardens are very well maintained.
Then we went to the Bonawe Iron Furnace one of the things we saw thanks to the Explorer, although they were closing, they let us in and sealed the Explorer, they were furnaces to make iron now converted into a museum, the houses and the landscape formed a very beautiful.
It was already late when we arrived at Dunstaffnage Castle, it was closed but you could jump the fence and see it on the outside at least is what people were doing there. The castle, dating from the thirteenth century, is one of the oldest built in stone in Scotland and is located on a conglomerate rock platform on a promontory to the southwest of the entrance to Lake Etive, bordered on three sides by the sea.
We finished the visit and went to Oban which is 5 minutes by car where we had the hotel.

Saturday, March 22, 2008

We got up very early when it was still night, the woman of the B&B offered at night to make us something to eat for the morning, but ha we took the car loaded with food and waited for us the longest day of the trip and above all we had You arrive at 11 to catch the ferry to the island of Sky.
The first thing we saw is the Glencoe Valley, with the highest mountain in the United Kingdom Ben Nevis (1,344 m) at the foot of the town of Fort Williams, the scenery is spectacular we stop every moment of the road to take pictures of the valley, we stop at one of the parking lots with huts used by mountaineers to climb the Ben Nevis to contemplate this mountain.
During the trip you can see the beautiful Stalker Castle located in the middle of a lake.

Stalker Castle


Then we go to Mallaig to catch the ferry, we get there and after paying we place the car to put it on the ferry, in 15 minutes we leave, the ferry ride for an hour and a half, at the top there is a bar to take you something while contemplating the island of sky from afar.
When we get to the island nearby is Armadale Castle, it is a ruined castle near the beach.
As we arrived soon we changed the route and went to Neist Point the most western area of ​​the island and one of the places what to see in ScotlandWe had heard some opinion of a traveler who marked it as the best views of Scotland and he was not without reason, the road to this point is a good reason to go, with sheep full of wool crossing the road, small farms, the green color of the fields, the roads that in many sections only fit a car where the sign shows single road track with passing places. We parked in a parking lot that was on a hillside and went down some steep stairs to the coast, there the landscape is indescribable, with a lighthouse, and a small mountain where you can climb up and see the cliff while the wind blows hard. After a good while there we decided that we still had a long way to the hotel so we went back to the rental car, the way back walking is quite hard up the climb.

Neist Point on the Isle of Skye


The next castle we saw was the Dunvegan, a place that has always been inhabited by the same family during its 8 centuries of existence, which belongs to the MacLeod Clan, the castle is very well preserved, we did not enter but we did go around through the gardens that even have a waterfall, we fell a trickle of ice water on our trip that lasted about 5 minutes, we got under the trees until it stopped, the views of the castle with the beach are also fantastic.
The last castle we almost visited was Duntulm's
which is on the edge of the cliff, only remnants of some walls remain and it was closed.
We descend along the coast to the Kilt Rock where there is a river that falls from a cliff directly to the sea forming a large waterfall, there is a viewpoint to see it well.
On the way to Portree we wanted to see the Old Man of Storr but we did not see it and we arrived in Portree without realizing it, so we asked there and we had to turn around, we saw it at sunset, it is a giant monolith in a rocky area. We dined in Portree a tourist town with a good offer of restaurants and bars.
If you do not want to rent a car and you have the days available it is interesting to book this 3-day tour to the Isle of Skye and the Highlands with a guide in Spanish.

Day 5: PORTREE - DORNIE - ELIAN DONAN CASTLE - VICTORIA WATERFALLS - MAREE LAKE - INVEREWE GARDENS - EWE LAKE - MEASACH WATERFALLS - INVERNESS

Sunday, March 23, 2008

Before I start with the story of the stage, I have to say that most of the hotels we visited during the route were B and B (bed and brekfast), they are private houses adapted for tourists or travelers to spend the night there and take a Good homemade breakfast (fried eggs, bacon, sausages, toast ...) delicious everything, is a good way to know their way of life and their great kindness.
The first visit we had was that of Eilean Donan Castle, one of the most anticipated, we left the island of sky behind this time by land crossing the viaduct that is in kile of locash, we soon arrived in Dornie where the castle that is the most photographed and the most famous in all of Scotland, there was shot the movie of the Immortals and the announcement of Cardhu.

Elian Donan Castle


The castle was built around the 13th century on the small island of Donan, and managed by the McKenzie clan, the Loch Duich, bathes the edge of the castle and you have to cross a bridge to reach it, the view from the shore of the lake It is incredible, I think it is the image that we have most photographed of Scotland, before entering we went through a store where to buy tickets and that you could also buy souvenirs.
We had to wait a while to enter the castle because another ice storm fell again, when the sun came out and we could enjoy it, you can visit several rooms of the castle and there are good views of the lake from the castle but the best thing is the image from the other shore where the bridge, the castle and the lake are seen.

Elian Donan Castle, one of the best things to see in Scotland


After the visit we went to Talladale to see the Victoria waterfalls and the Maree Lake; the botanical gardens of Inverewe and the waterfalls of Measach, with more than 50 m. Tall. The Victoria waterfalls are not found so that this area was not very well signposted, but if we saw the Measach waterfalls, you can park near them and after traveling a small path you find a wooden bridge and below there is a narrow canyon where There are waterfalls, it produces a bit of vertigo and the height is considerable, and the noise produced by the waterfall intimidates a little.
One of the disappointments of the trip were the Inverewe botanical gardens, I don't know if it was at the time but we didn't like it very much and it is one of the things that we consider dispensable, just note that at the foot of the gardens is Lake Ewe , beautiful lake, surrounded by islets.
We arrive at the town of Talladale where there is a viewpoint with great views of Lake Maree and its white houses.
One of the things that we did not accomplish in our itinerary was the visit to Ullapol and it started to get dark so we went directly to Inverness, during the trip a snowfall fell and the road began to freeze, after some skating with the car We arrived in Inverness, the capital of the Highlands, to spend the night there and visit its castle in the morning.

Day 6: INVERNESS - LAKE NESS - CASTLE URQUHART - FORT GEORGE - FORT AUGUSTUS - LOS CAIRGORM - GLENFIDDISH - CATEDRAL ELGIN - HUNTLY

Monday, March 24, 2008

Inverness has 60,000 inhabitants and is a city with a good offer of hotels and restaurants, the first thing we did after breakfast was to visit its castle, it is located on a cliff on the banks of the River Ness, we took pictures from the outside it has a sandstone color red, and houses a museum, we do not enter ja that we find more interesting castles that have not been rebuilt and that is why we go to Loch Ness, to see the lake and the Castle of Urquhart.

Urquhart Castle on Loch Ness


The lake is immense and you can stop at the viewpoints on the road to see it and take the photos, the visitor center is in Drumnadrochit, and nearby there are several souvenir shops with Nessy stuffed animals everywhere, too There is like a museum that explains a little history and a monster of Loch Ness in statue, after the money that is taken with the invention that less than make a statue.
You can take a tour of the lake with a boat to see if you find the monster but with the cold it was not even considered.
After we took the rental car in Scotland and nearby the parking lot was to see the castle, we were lucky to come at this time because of the little tourism we were in each place and that allowed us to enjoy a tranquility to contemplate the landscapes and take the photos without anyone around that in summer you could not.
The castle is half destroyed before reaching it, there is a giant stone pitcher so you can imagine with which weapons they fought against these fortresses, the best thing about the castle as in many is where it is located, on the shores of Loch Ness, where you can See your reflection in the lake. You can climb a castle tower to contemplate the lake.
A good option if you are in Edinburgh and do not want to rent a car is to book a guided tour in Spanish that includes Loch Ness and the Highlands, one of the best tours and excursions in Edinburgh.
When we get tired of taking photos, we head to Fort George, returning to Inverness.
It was a visit that we also made thanks to Explorer and it is a good experience and why not, something else what to see in Scotland.
It is a defensive fortress that the English built once they won the battle of Culloden, to make sure they would never have trouble revolting in the Highlands area. Many of the barracks still have military use, but there are areas open to the public to visit. It is a fortress that is very well maintained, surrounded by a wall full of canyons. You can visit various venues such as a small church for the military that does the service there.
Then we go to Fort Augustus to visit the city and from there depart to Aviemore to see the Grampian region with its beautiful landscapes of mountains such as those of the Cairngorm Natural Park, we cross this area towards the valley of the Spey River where we start the Route of the Whiskey, with the visit to the Glenfiddich distillery, one of the most recognized, there they showed us the whole process of creating their famous malt whiskey, and they let us try it, too strong for me, it also has a shop if you want to take a bottle but prices are high.
When we finish we go to Elgin to visit its cathedral, it is in ruins that makes it have a special atmosphere, with graves outside and is one of the most impressive ruins in Scotland. Near the cathedral is the Spynie Palace that left in the Explorer and as it was close we approached, it is the castle of Elgin that is in ruins but does not have the charm of the Cathedral.
To end the day we go to the Huntly to spend the night there and visit the castle in the morning.

It is a medieval castle, today in ruins, which is located on a rocky cliff on a cape on the northeast coast of Scotland, has as its only access a narrow channel of land that connects it to the mainland, continuing along a steep path that leads to a fortified door, scenes from the movie Hamlet with Mel Gibson were filmed
The position where it is located is what attracts the most attention and is the most incredible we have ever seen, in the photos I have put one for you to see.
After visiting it and asking someone to take a picture to immortalize the moment we went to the next castle, Crathes very different from Dunottar is in perfect condition, it is one of the few that we visited inside and toured several rooms of the building , we also toured its beautiful gardens.

The current owner of the castle is the queen's nephew. One of the most famous parts of the castle is the Duncan's Hall, where it is said that Macbeth murdered King Duncan.
The current Glamis Castle, another place what to see in ScotlandIt dates from the early fifteenth century and can be visited inside, we arrived very early and it was not yet open but it is worth seeing from the outside, it also has immense gardens, very well maintained.

Afterwards we approach Arbroath to visit its abbey that is in ruins but it is very worthwhile, The Abbey, the richest in Scotland, is famous above all for its association with the Arbroath Declaration of 1320.
Near there is Dundee, the fourth largest city in Scotland, and which in the past was an important shipyard, we headed towards the port to see the mythical Discovery ship. The Discovery was expressly built to participate in the British National Antarctic Expedition, also known as the Discovery Expedition (1901-1904). The expedition was aimed at exploring Antarctica, and was led by then Lieutenant Robert Falcon Scott.
After being caught in the ice, Discovery and his crew spent more than 2 years exploring the South Pole, until in January 1904 they were able to free the ship again and return to the United Kingdom. In 1985 the restored ship returned to Dundee, where it was incorporated into the Discovery Point where there is also a museum that explains the whole story with photos and other objects of the expedition. If you want to buy a model of Discovery this is your site.
Then we went to St. Andrews, to visit its beautiful cathedral, its fantastic golf courses and the beach where firecars rolled. This whole area can be done on foot.
Part of the facade, its walls and a tower are preserved from the cathedral, where the entire city can be seen by pennies. The climb is hard but it is very worthwhile that you can see the entire cathedral, golf courses and beaches. After the Cathedral, we went walking along the sea, towards the castle, built in 1200, as a bishop's private residence.
You can also visit the mines under the castle.

After the visit that can last more than 2 hours, we went down the Royal Mile. The royal mile is the exact mile from Edinburgh Castle to the Hollyrood Palace and is called that because this was the way the kings had to go (since Edinburgh Castle was the royal residence) and the nobles to go From the palace to the castle. Here we buy our latest souvenirs, Scottish wool scarves, skirts, medieval knights are very typical….
On the Royal mile there is also the cathedral of St Giles with its beautiful stained glass windows and the famous Thistle chapel, home of the Knights of the Order of Thistle, and currently used for the funerals of important personalities of Scotland.

Friday, March 28, 2008

Este día visitamos la capilla de Roslin, una pena que la fachada estuviera en obras, pero si que entramos para ver la capilla que se hizo famosa por el libro del Código da Vinci, fue construida por los caballeros templarios en 1446, esta llena de símbolos, estatuas, gárgolas, expresiones en hebreo y también con muchos turistas. Podrás comprar ejemplares del libro en su tienda.
Después hicimos la ruta de las abadías, una serie de abadías de los “Borders”, y que se encuentran todas en estado ruinoso. Constituyen todas ellas una muestra de las turbulentas relaciones entre Escocia e Inglaterra en el siglo XVI, los paisajes por esta zona del sur de Escocia son preciosos.
Vistamos la abadía de Melrose queda el esqueleto de lo que fueron los claustros, la cocina, el armazón de la iglesia y algunos muros medievales, es la más bonita de todas y guarda, enterrado, el corazón de Robert the Bruce.
Si no disponéis de coche de alquiler en Escocia la mejor opción para visitar esta zona desde Edimburgo es con este tour con guía en español que también incluye el Muro de Adriano.

Día 11 : EDIMBURGO - AEROPUERTO DE GLASGOW - GERONA

Sábado, 29 de marzo del 2008

Tocaba hacer las maletas y desplazarnos hasta Glasgow para coger el vuelo a Gerona, queríamos antes visitar el castillo de Culzean, habíamos leído buenas opiniones pero íbamos con el tiempo justo y no queríamos arriesgarnos a perder el vuelo.
Después de que hayan pasado unos años de este viaje, cerrar los ojos y volver a ver los castillos, las abadías, los lagos, el verde de los paisajes, el frío y la nieve, las ovejas en medio de la carretera, las granjas, los desayunos, la amabilidad de los escoses, el oleaje del mar… , me deja con una sensación de tranquilidad y de haber vivido una experiencia inolvidable.
