Reiseführer Schottland - mit Orkney, Hebriden und Shetland

No matter how you choose to explore Scotland—whether as a hiker, water sports enthusiast, or city traveler—the northernmost part of Great Britain, with its rugged coastline, towering Highlands, and numerous islands, offers a wealth of opportunities. The small harbor towns of Dumfries and Galloway entice visitors with their beautiful beaches. The Tayside region in the east promises a mild climate and breathtaking coastal landscapes. The north captivates with its pristine moorlands and prehistoric sites. The industrial city of Glasgow contrasts sharply with the country’s rich natural beauty, while Edinburgh boasts the largest neoclassical city district in England, earning its title as the "Athens of the North."

Each chapter of the travel guide begins with a double-page spread that introduces the content with an overview map of the region, highlights, and page references. Color-coded page number boxes corresponding to the chapters make it easy to navigate the book. The guide includes tried-and-true practical tips on travel questions from A to Z. Highlighted tips for family-friendly or particularly sustainable offerings and activities facilitate effective trip planning. With 40 city maps and charts, 11 hikes in the most beautiful regions of Scotland, a small English language guide, and numerous cross-references throughout the book, finding your way while on the go is a breeze.
