Starting with a Clans, Plants and Landscape walk at Abriachan this Saturday 4 October from 2 - 4pm, participants can find out how plants, animals and landscape have held meaning for people throughout history and make their own clan badge.

The next event is on Wednesday 8 October from 2 - 4pm at Clava Cairns where Archaeologist Indiana Bones, the ‘expert’ on Clava Cairns and other characters from the past will inform participants about the Bronze Age.

On Friday 10 October 2 - 4pm, learn all about how the world came to Foyers in an Archaeology in Foyers walk – the Hydro legacy. Meet at Foyers shop car park.

A guided tour of Culloden Estate will also be given on Wednesday 15 October, 2 - 4pm, join the Rangers and lots of characters from the time of Culloden who will be there to meet and greet.
