SACRED SCOTLAND QUEST
A JOURNEY THROUGH THE WILDS OF LAND, SEA AND SKYE
APRIL 9-19, 2026
Stone circles, ancient castles, wild ridgelines—kindred souls, timeless memories.
WELCOME TO THE QUEST
Journey to the wild heart of Scotland, where windswept ridgelines, ancient stone circles, and the pulse of the sea call you home.
This is not just a tour—it’s a sojourn across the holy highlands and sacred isles—an invitation to walk the mythic lands of legend and lore while awakening the untamed truths within.
From the mist-veiled peaks of Ben Lomond to the magic of the Callanish stone circle, each step carries you deeper into dialogue with the wild lands, your primal nature, and the sovereign voice of your own becoming. The raw beauty of these landscapes—both fierce and tender—holds a mirror for reflection, reclamation, and remembrance.
This quest asks not for perfection, but presence. As you traverse castles, cliffs, moors, and ferries that cross to worlds beyond the ordinary, you’ll be guided to leave behind your old identities and stand rooted in what has always been yours: your power, your purpose, your path.
Woven with ritual and shared story, this journey bridges the visible and the unseen—where the earth is your guide, silence is your sanctuary, and every trail leads you back to yourself.

STARTING POINT
GLASGOW
The Sacred Scotland Quest is a one-of-a-kind journey through some of the most breathtaking and legendary landscapes in the world. Over 10 days, you’ll traverse nearly 40 miles of wild terrain—through the rolling Highlands, dramatic ridgelines, mossy glens, and across the sea to the windswept Isles of Skye and Lewis.
This pilgrimage blends moderate to challenging hikes with deeply immersive cultural and spiritual experiences. From the summit of Ben Lomond to the ancient standing stones of Callanish, from the hidden valleys of Glencoe to the surreal formations of the Quiraing, each trail leads you deeper into the land’s raw beauty and rich mythic history.
Expect daily hikes ranging from 2 to 8 miles, ferry crossings between isles, castle visits, and sacred site pilgrimages. While not as altitude-focused as alpine treks, this journey requires endurance, curiosity, and the ability to move with presence through rugged and remote environments.
Ideal for those seeking not just adventure but intentionality, this quest is for those called to walk in reverence—ready to reclaim their wildness, meet themselves in the elements, and remember the deeper song of their souls in communion with the land.

Accommodations are a mix of locally-owned hotels, historic inns, and cozy hostels that reflect the charm and character of each region we visit—from village stays in Drymen and Fort William to shared lodging on the Isle of Skye and the Outer Hebrides.
Rooms are typically shared with one or more quest participants, and while not luxury, they are clean, comfortable, and welcoming. Think warm showers, hearty breakfasts, and a place to rest after a day of hiking and connection.
This style of lodging helps us stay close to nature, culture, and community—and adds to the intimacy and adventure of the journey.
-
April is considered one of the best times to explore Scotland—the weather is often cool but enjoyable, with longer daylight hours, blooming landscapes, and the lowest chance of encountering midges.
Expect a mix of sun, wind, light rain, and crisp air, with daytime temperatures ranging from 45–55°F (7–13°C). While the conditions can change quickly, this season offers some of the clearest and most pleasant weather of the year.
It’s still important to pack for all elements, including waterproof layers and warm clothing, so you can fully enjoy whatever the Highlands and Isles have in store.
-
You’ll enjoy hearty, nourishing meals that reflect the local Scottish culture—from cozy pub dinners and traditional dishes to fresh local produce and warm breakfasts to fuel your hikes.
Breakfasts and dinners are included daily, often enjoyed together as a group in hotel dining rooms or nearby restaurants. Lunches are on our own, offering flexibility to explore village cafés or buy something simple at the market.
While meals won’t be gourmet, they are filling, satisfying, and made with care. We do our best to accommodate dietary needs—just let us know in advance so we can plan accordingly.

From the moment I arrived, I felt such a deep level of connectedness and purpose. Although I typically avoid going deep with all people except my very closest friends and family, I found myself opening up to a space of vulnerability I hadn't accessed in a long time. It was safe and loving, and it made way for some of the most profound healing I have ever felt. There is a magic to how Tiffany brings individuals together to allow for opening and healing, without pressure, and cultivates a space of play, joy and humanness.

THE DAILY BREAKDOWN
DAY 1: Arrival to GLASGOW
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 9, 2026
Step into the ancient heartbeat of Scotland. Beneath Glasgow’s creative pulse lies a land once ruled by sacred riverways, early Celtic tribes, and the miracles of Saint Mungo. As travelers arrive from around the world, we begin to root into this green and storied land. Our opening circle sets the tone—this isn’t just a trip, but a sacred crossing. Intention, presence, and connection awaken the path ahead.
Tech Info: Minimal walking

DAY 2: Ben Lomond
THURSDAY, APRIL 10, 2026
We journey to Loch Lomond, a place the ancient Celts revered as a spiritual portal. From the loch’s edge, we begin our ascent of Ben Lomond—Scotland’s southernmost Munro and a peak of ancient reverence. Once a fire-signal mountain for Highland clans, its name means "Beacon." At the summit, sky and soul meet. Descending the wild Ptarmigan Ridge, we walk a line between worlds. Expect challenge, clarity, and something ancient awakening.

We enter Glencoe, one of Scotland’s most breathtaking and storied landscapes—carved by glaciers and echoing with legend. Here, towering cliffs, rushing waterfalls, and mossy ravines create a natural cathedral. We hike into the Hidden Valley, where the MacDonald clan once concealed both cattle and kin, and where the tragic 1692 massacre left a scar on the Highland soul. Locals still speak of a eerie presence here. This day is about remembrance, release, and reverence.

One of the most breathtaking ridge hikes in all of Scotland. Today we traverse four Munros—including the knife-edge Devil’s Ridge, said to test one’s spirit as much as their step. Waterfalls thunder from glacial cliffs, wind howls through the high corries, and ancient stone underfoot whispers of warriors and wildness. This is a true initiation—into trust, focus, and the raw forces of the natural world. Easier trail options available if needed.

Our path leads to the iconic Eilean Donan Castle, where three lochs converge. This tidal island is steeped in magic and mystery—said to be protected by sea spirits and blessed by a fairy bride who gifted the legendary Fairy Flag. Then, to Skye: land of enchantment. The Fairy Pools shimmer with clear glacial water beneath the Cuillin mountains. Locals say wishes whispered here reach the otherworld. This is a day of beauty, myth, and renewal.

The Quiraing is a living landscape—still shifting, still speaking. Formed by landslides, this surreal terrain is dotted with features named in myth: the Prison, the Table, the Needle. Hike among stone towers and hidden valleys where fae folk are still said to dance in the mist.

DAY 8: Callanish STANDING Stones
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 16, 2026
We ferry to the Isle of Lewis and walk among the Callanish Stones—an ancient megalithic temple aligned with the lunar cycle, solar cycle, and the great turning of the heavens. Built over 5,000 years ago, these stones hold ceremonial memory and energetic charge. Some say they mark the bones of the earth. Others claim they open the soul to astral knowledge. No matter what you believe, this is sacred ground. Prepare for quiet reverence, magic, and timeless presence.

DAY 9: Ullapool Hill & INVERNESS
THURSDAY, APRIL 17, 2026
We return to the mainland and hike above the quiet harbor town of Ullapool. From the summit, views stretch across Loch Broom and the Summer Isles, offering space to breathe and integrate all that’s been stirred. Some say these high places were used by ancient seers and dreamers to receive guidance from sky spirits. This is a day for reflection, stillness, and gathering the gold from the journey thus far.

Accommodation: Glen Mhor Hotel, Inverness
DAY 10: GLASGOW INTEGRATION DAY
FRIDAY, APRIL 18, 2026
We travel south through Highland heartlands, returning to Glasgow. But we are not the same. This is a day of closing: gentle yoga, shared stories, reflection, and rest. We root what has been reclaimed. We name what is coming next. Like the spiral path of the ancients, the return brings us back to the beginning—but with deeper knowing, fuller hearts, and a fire lit from within.
Tech Info: Minimal walking, yoga | 3.5-hour drive in the morning

Yes, this quest includes several moderate to challenging hikes—some with elevation gain, uneven terrain, and full-day durations. While you don’t need to be an athlete, a basic level of fitness and stamina will help you fully enjoy the experience.
We recommend preparing with:
Regular walks or hikes (3–6 miles) on varied terrain
Strength and mobility training (especially for legs, core, and balance)
Practice carrying a small daypack with water and layers
Stair climbing or hill intervals for elevation prep
More than peak performance, what matters most is being comfortable with moving your body in nature, resilience with the elements, and listening to your limits. We’ll move as a supportive group, and alternative options will be available on certain days. You’ll also receive a pre-quest training guide to help you prepare with confidence and care.
