Expedition Spotlight: Farming in the Scottish Highlands
For centuries, Highland cows, wool-producing sheep and powerful Clydesdale horses have played an important role in Scotland’s agricultural traditions and rural way of life. On our Ancient Isles: England, Ireland and Scotland voyage, guests explore this heritage firsthand during a farm visit in Aberdeen—watching a sheep-shearing demonstration, interacting with native breeds and hearing from the farmers who raise and care for these animals. In this Expedition Spotlight, discover how these encounters offer a deeper understanding of farming traditions in the Scottish Highlands and the enduring connections between the region’s people, animals and land.
