Outlandish Scotland Journey is a travel guidebook designed to help Outlanderites visit a variety of Real-World Places:

  • Scottish locations mentioned in Diana Gabaldon’s first three novels
    (Outlander, Dragonfly in Amber, and Voyager).
  • Scottish sites that inspired—or resemble—Diana’s fabulous fictional location descriptions.
  • Scottish places where significant events occurred during the 1745 Jacobite rebellion.
  • Scottish film sites seen on screen in the STARZ Outlander TV series.

 

Real-World Gabaldon & Historic Scottish Locations Include:

  • Castle Leod, the Seat of Clan Mackenzie—a building that is over 500 years old—called “Castle Leoch” in Diana’s novels.
  • Holyroodhouse Palace, located at the foot of Edinburgh’s Royal Mile, where Jamie and Claire lodged during part of their involuntary participation in the ’45 Jacobite rising.
  • Culloden Battlefield, where James Alexander Malcolm Mackenzie Fraser intended to die on April 16th, 1746.

 

Scottish Sites that Inspired Fictional Gabaldon Locations Include:

  • The Callanish Stones (seen on our book cover). This is the Scottish stone circle that most closely resembles Gabaldon’s Craigh na Dun description, and the stones that inspired the Craigh na Dun set designers.
  • The Dun Bonnet Cave where the real-life James Fraser of Foyers hid for seven years after surviving the Battle of Culloden. (Sound familiar?)

 

STARZ TV Series Film Sites in Scotland Include:

  • The Highland Folk Museum in Scotland is Britain’s first mainland open-air museum. Footage filmed here includes exterior & interior Episode 101 scenes of the hut where Murtagh delivered Claire after rescuing her from Black Jack Randall, as well as several of the Rent Collection village scenes in Episode 105.
  • Doune Castle is where all exterior Castle Leoch scenes were shot. Additionally, rooms inside the castle inspired several sound stage set designs—you’ll recognize them.
  • Culross is the village where exterior scenes were shot for Gabaldon’s fictional village of Cranesmuir. Several Season 1 & 2 interior scenes were filmed within Culross Palace.
