Overview

Scotland Above the Roads: Lost Passages of the Highlands is a journey into the hidden heart of the Scottish Highlands, where roads fade, and time slows. In this immersive, first-person narrative, you will follow the author as they explore abandoned tracks, high ridges, secluded glens, and forgotten bothies. These are not the tourist trails marked on maps, but the paths once trodden by drovers, shepherds, and generations of Highlanders-tracks that have been reclaimed by moss, heather, and mist. Through rugged landscapes, harsh weather, and profound solitude, the book captures the essence of moving deliberately through the land. Each step becomes a dialogue with nature, each cairn and ruin a whisper of history. From hidden lochs shimmering in mist to panoramic ridges where wind sculpts the silence, Scotland Above the Roads offers both an adventurous guide for hikers and a meditative reflection on human connection to place. Whether you are a seasoned trekker seeking remote routes, a history enthusiast fascinated by Highland life, or a reader longing for a literary journey into wild landscapes, this book provides inspiration, practical insights, and the evocative power of walking where paths disappear.
