• Indulge in delicious and plentiful Scottish cuisine, including fresh seafood, local beer, and hearty breakfasts.
• Traverse heather-clad landscapes while giving your body a good workout. (You must train for this trip.)
• Enjoy restorative stays at beautiful hotels.

Wait, there's more...

• Bask in the beauty of the Cairngorms.
• Hike with other Bold Spirit women who love to travel as much as you do.
• Learn about rewilding and women-led crofting.
• Shop along the cobblestone streets of Edinburgh.
• Take the plunge into a loch for wild swimming and a shoreline sauna experience.
• Stretch both your mind and hamstrings on this special journey.

The best part? Our team takes care of the logistics so you can focus on enjoying a much needed vacation in beautiful Scotland.
