Itineraries
Curated Scottish trip plans
Day-by-day plans built from real walked routes — Cuillin, Cape Wrath, Cairngorm plateau, Glen Coe, winter weekends, family long weekends. Each itinerary cross-links to detailed hill, glen, bothy and route pages.
Six curated multi-day trips covering the most-asked Scottish outdoor questions — what do I do with 3 days in Skye, what does the Cape Wrath Trail need in preparation, how do I start winter walking safely. Each plan composes existing OutdoorSCOT detail pages (hills, bothies, glens, long-distance routes, wild swim spots, gravel routes) into a day-by-day schedule with accommodation, transport and kit guidance.
More itineraries are added as the editorial backlog clears. Have a specific trip you'd like covered? Tell us.
