Event Description: Join a walk to explore the importance of the oral tradition in the Highlands and learn how everything is connected to our landscapes. Listen to history, tales, and regional folklore while looking at the scenery that surrounded the fairies, witches, clan-chiefs and other characters from our stories, as well as the bards and storytellers that told their stories for centuries.
Think about the concept of Dùthchas, a feeling of belonging, and understand, how the Ossianic stories generated a fascination with our Highland landscapes far beyond the Scottish borders and why all these stories still matter, today.
On this walk, you will hear stories and have a chance to share your own. You will also be encouraged to participate in a dialogue about our understanding of landscape, culture, and belonging.
There will be ample opportunities to express your understanding of the land in creative photography.
