Landscapes and Forests

Through a break in trees, by turning a bend or simply by opening your curtains, you'll discover a magical mix of mountains, lochs, forests and glens. Brave captures this awesome landscape perfectly and you can experience it for yourself at the following locations...

Wildlife and Nature

Although wild bears no longer roam Scotland's great outdoors as they do in Brave, you can still encounter an incredibly diverse variety of wildlife species, from the dolphins and salmon to birds of prey and red deer.

Ancient Scotland

Brave heroine Merida encounters a mysterious ring of stones on her quest to change her fate. Explore these sites for your own experience of these prehistoric stones, dwellings and other lasting marks on the landscape left by Scotland's ancient inhabitants.

Myths & Legends

Perhaps it's something to do with our Celtic heritage or our dramatic and often dark history but more than most, Scotland is a country steeped in myth and legend.

Castles & Royalty

Scotland's turbulent history has left a lasting mark on the landscape in shape of the many castles, fortresses and links to royalty that pepper the countryside.

Clans & Culture

Highland clans and clan life are at the heart of Brave's story. The spirit of the clan is still alive and strong across Scotland.
