OTHER ACTIVITIES AND EVENTS

The Travelling Gallery
29 April – 1 May 2024

Highland Pictish Trail
Discover the lost kingdom of the Highland Picts.  From the 300 AD to about 900AD, the Picts ruled much of what is now Scotland, and the Highlands were an important centre of Pictish power, culture and religion. The website highlights their fascinating legacy in the Highlands – enigmatic and often finely carved stones, important religious sites, hillforts set on towering hills and ridges, finely-worked jewellery and sculpture cared for in local museums, and stories of kings, wizards, faith and battles.
