Tour Scotland travel video Blog of the Island Of Jura, Scottish Gaelic: Diùra, on ancestry visit to the Inner Hebrides, Scotland. Jura is one of the least densely populated Scottish islands. The island is dominated by three steep sided conical quartzite mountains on its western side, called the Paps of Jura.
