Depart from Edinburgh and travel northwest to discover some of Scotland’s most striking landmarks and landscapes. Begin with a visit to The Kelpies, impressive horse head sculptures that celebrate Scotland’s industrial past and rich folklore. Continue onward to the peaceful village of Luss on the shores of Loch Lomond, where charming cottages and calm waters create a perfect setting for a relaxed walk. A short journey brings you to Tarbet, another scenic lochside village offering beautiful views and an optional boat cruise for those wishing to experience Loch Lomond from the water.

The journey continues through dramatic Highland scenery to Glen Ogle, known for its sweeping landscapes and historic viaduct set among rolling hills. Your final stop is the Trossachs Woollen Mill near Callander, where you can browse traditional Scottish products and may even spot the famous Highland cows nearby. After a day filled with natural beauty culture and memorable sights, return to Edinburgh while enjoying the ever changing scenery of the Scottish countryside.

A Majestic Scottish Marvel and Delightful Walk! I recently had the pleasure of visiting The Helix park and experiencing the majestic Kelpies up close, and I can't recommend it highly enough. It was a very pleasant walk from start to finish, offering a wonderful blend of natural beauty and impressive modern artistry. The sheer scale and intricate detail of the Kelpies are breathtaking. They stand as a true testament to Scottish engineering and mythology, perfectly capturing the spirit of the area's industrial heritage in a stunning, larger-than-life tribute to the mythical water horses. Viewing them illuminated at night is a particularly magical experience if you have the chance. The surrounding parkland at The Helix is beautifully maintained, providing the perfect setting for a leisurely stroll, a cycle, or simply a picnic with a lovely view of the sculptures. The pathways are accessible and well-signed, making it easy for visitors of all ages and abilities to enjoy the site. The ambiance is peaceful and invigorating all at once. Whether you're a local looking for a relaxing afternoon out or a tourist seeking an iconic Scottish landmark beyond the usual castles and lochs, the Kelpies offer an unforgettable experience. It's a fantastic day out that leaves you with a real sense of awe and appreciation for this unique piece of public art. Five stars!

So much bigger than expected. The detail in such large sculptures was fantastic. The Cafe and Visitors centre was also very good. The Sausage Rolls in the cafe were something special and the coffee was nice. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Amazing experience all round.

A must see sight when visiting the Falkirk area. These amazing sculptures are incredible to see. They dominate the surrounding area in their size and are a truly beautiful spectacle. Nearby, you’ve got the stunning sights of Helix Park to explore. Parking is available and even though it was busy, there were ample spaces. There are a number of great food choices at the Kelpies for a spot of lunch looking out onto the sculptures. Further, there is a fantastic gift shop with a great range of Scottish gifts.

The Kelpies are absolutely stunning! A must-see attraction in Scotland — the giant horse-head sculptures are breathtaking, especially when the sunlight or night lights reflect off the metal. It’s a perfect spot for photography with plenty of beautiful angles around the park and canal. The café on site is lovely, with friendly and helpful staff and a nice selection of snacks, drinks, and ice cream. Everything was clean and well presented. The environment is spotless, well maintained, and peaceful — ideal for families or anyone wanting to relax and enjoy the scenery. There’s also ample car parking nearby, making it easy and convenient to visit. Overall, a fantastic experience — great art, great atmosphere, and great service. Highly recommend visiting The Kelpies!

Der Ausflug war einfach großartig! Während der Fahrt durch die wunderschöne Landschaft hat unser sympathischer Guide Phil uns viel über die Geschichte Schottlands erzählt. Die Tour ist sehr empfehlenswert!

We booked 2 trips with this company weeks in advance, both of them got cancelled (The Kelpies one was one of them), but we were offered another tour, so we took it for this day (the Loch Ness trip). This was a bit of an inconvenience. However, the tour itself was very beautiful, the guide Anthony was informative and very funny. The stops are usually quite short, but since it was a long trip from Edinburgh, it made sense, and Anthony made sure we got a few minutes extra at every stop, we even made some additional stops, which was great. The views are amazing, we would definitely reccomend the Loch Ness day trip!

Explore More Beyond Edinburgh: A Day of Myths, Mountains, and Majestic Lochs

Escape the historic streets of Edinburgh and dive into the heart of Scotland's natural and mythical beauty. Our journey to The Kelpies, Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park was a perfect blend of art, legend, and breathtaking scenery. Our first stop was The Kelpies, two colossal 30-metre-high horse-head sculptures that tower over the Forth and Clyde Canal. These mythical ...
