SCOTLAND IS A SPECIAL PLACE TO VISIT
Whether you’re a local and enjoying a staycation, or an international visitor experiencing our magical shores for the first time, it’s important we all do our bit to keep Scotland as glorious as we can for now, and for the future generations too.
RESPECT THE LANDSCAPE
Our elusive, and often rare, wildlife species have had Scotland as their home for many centuries now, so it’s vital we respect the landscape and help to keep it as clean and as natural as we can. This means things like; picking up and taking your litter home with you, not starting fires in woodland or protected areas, and sticking to marked paths and trails that avoid natural habitats and fauna.
SCOTTISH OUTDOOR ACCESS CODE
Scotland has miles upon miles of countryside farmland which is home to many farms and livestock, including fluffy lambs and baby coos. If you’re out exploring, make sure you’re aware of your surroundings. Keep your dog on a lead around livestock, close gates behind you and make sure you read up on the Scottish Outdoor Access Code before you head out.
LOCAL COMMUNITIES
Home to hundreds of quaint villages and historic towns, our local communities thrive off small businesses and visitors to the area. Make sure you slow down your travels and absorb all that these areas have to offer; from fresh local produce and seasonal foods, to the native Gaelic language, stop off and take it all in wherever you decide to visit.
Help keep your promise to Scotland and join us to #RespectProtectEnjoy.
