"whiskyhiking"

Did you actually go to the distilleries or buy some and hike with a flask? Are there distilleries out in the country or anywhere near the trails? Do they let you taste and have a tasting room? Would like to know cause it would be a great diversion on a hiking trip there if the whisky stops were anywhere near the trails.

You don't exactly need proper "trails" over there, but some areas (Speeside, Pitlochry and surroundings, parts of the Highland valleys...and many many more) are dotted with distilleries, and hiking paths are also numerous, so you can litteraly walk from village to village, and visit. A "wee dram" is usually included in the tour, well, at the end of the tour... And the fresh air will clean up your head <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
