Tour Scotland Video Winter Scottish Highlands

Tour Scotland video of Winter in the Highlands of Scotland. The region is very sparsely populated, with many mountain ranges dominating the region, and includes the highest mountains in the British Isles. Before the 19th century the Highlands was home to a much larger population, but due to a combination of factors including the outlawing of the traditional Highland way of life following the Jacobite Rising of 1745, the infamous Highland Clearances, and mass migration to urban areas during the Industrial Revolution, the area is now one of the most sparsely populated in Europe.
