Edinburgh highland games intro
What better way to get a full taste of Scotland than by getting involved in your own mini highland games! This highland experience takes place in the grounds of one of Scotland’s finest castle, the perfect location for this timeless Scottish classic. Our friendly and fully ‘kilted-up’ highland instructors will ensure your event runs smoothly and more importantly you all enjoy the some highly competitive fun.
No doubt you’ve seen this event on TV in its full glory, now it’s your turn to toss that caber and hurl that haggis. Why not give this unique highland activity a bash and ensure you and the fellas have an Edinburgh stag weekend to remember.
| format: |
On arrival you will be greeted by the event coordinators who will introduce you to the instructors/marshals (in full highland dress) and run though how the games will run. You will then be split up in to small teams (number of teams depends on group size) and make your way to the events themselves which include launching weights over an iron bar, the welly hurling, farmers dash, highland dancing, bagpipe playing, tug ‘o’ war, and of course the infamous caber toss! Each group will spend approx 15-20 minutes on an activity before rotating on to the next. Each team will be issued with their own scoring pack, so leave it with some one you can trust! Once all activities are complete the scores will be tallied up and a small presentation ceremony will commence to crown the groups true highland brut! |
