Join Braemar Highland Experience to discover an area of outstanding natural beauty with spectacular mountains, wild open spaces and stunning scenery.

Based in Braemar in the Cairngorms National Park, we offer four different experiences – guided walking, whisky tastings, tours of Balmoral Castle and foraging walks.

Discover a landscape rich in history and folklore, with dramatic castles, mysterious stone circles and hidden hills and glens.

Braemar Highland Experience shows you the landscape through a local’s eye, sharing with you our passion for the history, culture and wildlife of Scotland.

Walking

We offer a wide variety of guided walking, at low and high level, from a couple of hours to several days in the Cairngorms and further afield.

Whisky

Our tastings take place at the Braemar Highland Games Centre (and include a personal tour), or at exclusive use venues throughout Scotland.

Balmoral Castle

Balmoral

Join us for a tour of the Balmoral gardens and ballroom, and Crathie Kirk, where the Royal family worship when they are in residence.

Foraging

Join Katy for a foraging walk from the village of Braemar. The ancient skill of foraging encourages you to reconnect with nature, observing its nuances and rhythms.
