Why go

The long ramparts and barrack ranges make the scale of the fortress clear as you move toward the Moray Firth. Inside, the Highlanders’ Museum shifts the focus from military engineering to regimental objects and individual service histories. Seeing the fortifications and collections in one circuit gives the coastal stronghold both a physical and a human story.

What to look for

  • Fortification ramparts
  • Historic garrison buildings
  • Highlanders’ Museum collections

Useful to know
