More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step into the van at Invergordon harbour as a wind off the Cromarty Firth pushes salt across the road, and the Highlands open like a page from a storybook. Heathered moor, folded hills and lochs roll by; every gate and ruined wall feels like a scene cue.
