What are some good places to visit in Scotland?
I'm thinking of taking a holiday in Scotland, but frankly, I have no idea what I'd be doing there (nor have I ever been on holiday somewhere else tbh, so I'd love to do some planning beforehand). I really want to enjoy the nature and landscapes there and I'm sure there must be a few not so tourist-y gems I could plan on visiting.

I took a hike up in to the Lost Valley in Glen Coe on the recommendation of a very drunk Scotsman at a nightclub in Edinburgh. It was the absolute highlight of my trip and I'm so glad I made it.
What a stunning view! I'll definitely have to get some good hiking gear it seems Thank you!!
I did it with hiking shoes because that's all I had with me, but I'd recommend hiking boots with good ankle support instead. There's a short scramble towards the top but it's not overly difficult.
Another favourite of that trip was the Old Man of Storr up at the Isle of Skye. It's a less technical hike but much more exposed to the elements and can get windy.
Also, I'm by no means a photographer. Scotland is just so stupidly pretty that you struggle to take a bad photo- get over there!
Damn this looks amazing, definitely gonna add it to the list of locations to visit! Places like that were exactly what I was hoping to see 👀
