- Join us for stroll around Scotland's most epic fortress, Dunnottar Castle!
The hauntingly romantic ruin of Dunnottar Castle is perched on an ancient rock formation formed 440million years ago in the North East Coast of Scotland.
Evidence dating from 5,000BC shows Picts had once inhabited the sea stack making it the oldest Pictish fort ever discovered. In 400AD, St Ninian arrived and converted the Picts to Christianity and three centuries later it was invaded and attacked by Viking forces.
The oldest part of the ruins is the Chapel which was built in 1276 and in 1392 the first stone castle, known as The Keep, was built at Dunottar.
The castle has been an integral part of Scotland and also England's history, with key figures such as William Wallace, Mary Queen of Scots and Oliver Cromwell all having visited or attacked the fortress.
The castle housed the Honours of Scotland (the crown jewels) for protection during The War of Three Kingdoms in the mid 1600s.
Dunottar is a geological, topographical, historical and cultural place of interest and a haven for landscape photographers. Be sure to check out this spectacular ruin on your next visit to Scotland!

Enjoyed this, thankx. Saved me traveling thousands of miles and visiting myself. I mean personally visiting not "visiting myself" as I'm already in my own company. Me.
Informative and easy form of meditation.
Thanks Ros :-)
Thanks for the beautiful walkthrough of the DUNNOTTAR CASTLE. I enjoyed the long walkthrough tour. Thank you for this experience. I watched the movie OUTLANDER - With some History of Scotland and learned to love it! Appreciate your time in putting this video together for us to learn a bit of their journey to get to the castle.
Thanks so much for watching!
We also love Outlander and enjoy visiting the beautiful filming locations around Scotland☺
From Toronto very nice beautiful Scenic tour before arriving to the castle
Thanks for watching!
😄
Built in 1392, wow! Still in great shape. Loved the camera work. :)
Thanks so much for the walk around Dunnottar Castle. It's absolutely worth a visit, but I doubt I can climb so many stairs, and up and down a whole day. Special thanks for having given me an opportunity to do the trip anyway.
It is certainly a steep climb down to the castle! The views from the top before going down the steps are the most spectacular anyway!
Thanks for watching 😄
I was there on May this year so energetic place and so peaceful ❤️
It is definitely one of our top Scottish castles, the location on the cliffside is incredible!😍
Perfect. Thank you 🙏
Thanks for watching!☺
You need to be mobile to do this as the amount of steps is phenomenal. Brilliant once you get there then you have to go back up those steps. It is a long walk.
Yes, it definitely requires good mobility! The steps are a killer especially on a (rare) warm day!😁
Beautiful! Thank you for sharing. What month was this?
