For those considering a trip to Scotland, Active Scotland is the name of the new and exciting adventures awaiting visitors to this wonderful country. Active Scotland is Scotland's way of giving the very best of the country to visitors through the experience of festivals, activities, and events. Active Scotland will build upon the already successful Homecoming 2009 and the Year of Food and Drink, which runs through May 2011. The kickoff of Active Scotland was held in Edinburgh with the One o'Clock Run. The Scottish Government Tourism Minister, Jim Mather, says that Scotland is a great place to be active and that the opening run is a great way to promote that fact. Other activities that will be promoted for Active Scotland include canoeing, white water rafting, coastal walks, bike rides through the forests or even just with the family through the Scottish countryside. Active Scotland has something for everyone. Events taking place St. Andrew's Golf Week, The Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival, Highland Games, Royal Highland Show, and Cowal Highland Gathering. |
