Step Into the World of Outlander

Scotland is a land of stories—whispered on the wind, etched into stone, and carried through the generations in the hearts of its people. It is a place where history and myth dance together, where battlefields remember, and castles guard their secrets. And it is here, amid these timeless landscapes, that Outlander came to life.

Follow the path of Claire and Jamie Fraser, from the quiet streets of Inverness to the dark chambers of Wentworth Prison, from the rugged walls of Castle Leoch to the rolling fields of Lallybroch/Broch Tuarach. This is more than a tour—it is a passage through time.

Lallybroch/Broch Tuarach – Midhope Castle

We begin our journey at Midhope Castle, known to the world as Lallybroch or Broch Tuarach—a place of love and loyalty, laughter and loss. Here, Jamie Fraser stood before his people, before his land, and before his fate. The ancient stones of this 17th-century tower house still breathe with the memories of a life once lived. Stand in the courtyard, let the silence settle around you, and picture Jamie and Claire walking these very paths.

Fort William – Blackness Castle

From the safety of Lallybroch/Broch Tuarach, we descend into the shadows of Fort William, where Black Jack Randall cast his cruel and lingering shadow. Blackness Castle, with its thick walls and brooding presence, holds its own history—one of sieges and suffering, of prisoners lost to time. As you stand within its walls, you can almost hear the clang of iron doors, the echo of boots upon stone, the weight of despair in the cold Highland air.

Wentworth Prison – Linlithgow Palace

Further still, we find ourselves at Linlithgow Palace, once the grand residence of Scotland’s Stuart monarchs, now forever linked to one of Outlander’s most harrowing moments—Wentworth Prison. The wind sighs through the empty chambers, the loch reflects the ruins in its still waters, and history lingers in the air.

Castle Leoch – Doune Castle

No Outlander journey is complete without stepping through the gates of Castle Leoch, the formidable home of Clan MacKenzie. Doune Castle, with its towering battlements and winding staircases, was the perfect choice to portray this legendary stronghold. Listen closely, and you may still hear the echoes of Claire’s defiant words, of Colum MacKenzie’s wisdom, of the whispered alliances that shaped Scotland’s past.

Cranesmuir – Culross

Further south, the quiet village of Culross appears like a ghost from the past. It is here that Geillis Duncan walked with secrets upon her lips, where whispers of rebellion and witchcraft stirred in the wind. The medieval buildings, the worn cobblestones, the Mercat Cross at the village’s heart—it is as if time never moved on from the 18th century.

Le Havre – Dysart Harbour

We arrive at Dysart Harbour, transformed into Le Havre in Outlander’s second season. Here, the scent of salt and sea fills the air, the waves whisper against the pier, and the ships creak at their moorings. Claire and Jamie arrived in France upon these very waters, stepping into a world of danger and intrigue.

Inverness (Falkland) – Where Claire’s Story Begins

Finally, our journey now takes us to Falkland, the charming town that stood in for Inverness in Outlander. It was here, among these very streets, that Claire and Frank walked before fate intervened. At the Bruce Fountain, time itself seemed to bend as Jamie’s ghost watched over the woman he could not yet know. Wander through the cobbled lanes, step inside the old guesthouse, and feel the strange and beautiful pull of destiny in the air.
