Great little vid mate. Highlander is my favourite film of all time. Yh I know there are hundreds of “better” films but coupled with what is easily the best soundtrack ever, it’s just magical & makes the 11 yr old in the 45 yr old body very happy. And after seeing the bay at Morar, I can’t hearing Ramirez going “feel the stag” 🤣
Thank you so much for doing this, I have visited to most of these but you made it so much more special with the right music and comparison shots. Very emotional
Thank you for posting this. I very nearly stopped at the wrong beach near Morar yesterday, but thanks to this I kept going until I found those rocks in the establishing shot. Off to Glencoe today......!
You've made me CRY a lot watching this,SENSEI STUART. I think I've found a brother who loves "HIGHLANDER" inasmuch as ME. Mère words can't describe how I feel everytime I watch your video documenting such spectacular trek. THANK YOU VERY MUCH
rest in peace Sean Connery one of our best actors gone but not forgotten and will always live on in his films i imagined him walking along that beach in that shot obviously most of the buildings were props but nice to see there locations all these years later, if you had looked hard enough there may have been small remnants of the sets. sometimes film studios tend to leave something behind as a marker of the film.
Fantastic video, due to a sharp research and faithfull camera work as compared to film stills. I know nothing about Harry Potter movies but Highlander is the reason why I once visited Scotland and its Highlands. Your video makes me yearn for a second vacation there ! Thank you !
Bellissimo video! La foto in cui c'è Sean Connery mi ha fatto emozionare.... gli anni sono passati, molto in fretta. Grazie per aver realizzato questo video 🔝🔝🔝
@@MidiansMusic hi sorry for taking a while to get back to you. We couldn't find the path up to Ralston Cairn, we walked all over the place but just couldn't find it. Parked where you did though. Still a great vid and I'm back to try again 🙂
@@MidiansMusic hi Stuart thank you so much for getting back to me, we're going up on Monday August 2nd. I think I need to park where you did and walk along the road for a couple of hundred metres to find the path, guessing though 😁.

Thanks so much for making this video. I have always wanted to Go to these places and thanks in large part to the video, My wife and I are planning to copy your adventure and are planning our own Scottish adventure..
You're welcome. Some of the places can be hard to find if you don't know exactly where they are, so I have updated the info to include a link to a power point showing some Google Street views and explanations on how to reach it. Happy travels.
@@MidiansMusic that's awesome thanks , I'm not going until January so plenty of time to plan ( And force my wife to watch the Highlander films ) only downside she wants me to watch Harry potter .... Il let you know how we get on . 👍😃
This must be one of the best videos ever. So emotional it made me cry. I was a child when I watched Highlander for the first time and Sean Connery was the love of my life back then as he was identical to my dad ❤ going to Refuge Bay is on my bucket list of things to do. Is there a postcode to ensure I get to the right place? Thank you so much for this fabulous montage. ❤
Thank you for your kind comment. I have created a ppt document with postcodes and direction to some of these locations. The download link should still be active in the info section. Let me know if it still works. I have also updated this video with a google maps version. Have a good trip when you go :)
ty for this a part of me was hoping when you showed the sword location. the sword would still be in the ground rusted and in cased in stone etc. wishful thinking i know. They most likely took the sword after they took that shot of it.
Wow. Thanks for making this. Must have been amazing to visit these places. I live in Ireland and I’m planning to visit these locations. Do you know where the place is where Conor and Ramirez practised together on top of rock slab in the mountains? Helicopter filmed I presume.
That location is called the Cioch in the Black Cuillin Mountains on the Isle of Skye. You have to be a very good climber and not afraid of heights for that one! www.ambaile.org.uk/asset/37124/1/EN37124-the-cioch-the-cuillins-isle-of-skye.htm/
How about highlander the series, in the episode homeland, Duncan MacLeod goes to Glenfinnan to visit the burial site of his first love....he buried a bracelet with her, but had found it for sale in Paris, having been dug up by grave robbers, so he had to go back to re-bury it, and end up having to fight the Immortal who killed his father and activated Duncan's immortality by killing Duncan. There's an inn there called glenuig inn, unfortunately it doesn't look the one in the show because they did extensive renovations, but it's the site where the episode was filmed. 🙂 What I don't know is if the forest scenes in that episode were filmed in Glenfinan or in Seattle. 🙂
Hi Mate! Ok going on my own and leaving the wife and kid at home. Going to drive my porsche in and all my friends are thinking I'm insane to go in November. My question to you good Sir is.. Is it difficult to get to the exact locations? Is there a long climb or walk? will I need boots and and supplies getting to some locations ? sorry for daft questions but Ive never done this before but this is my fav movie and I have to pay tribute! Thanks in Advance :).
Hi Tony, It all depends on which locations you're visiting. I've added some details next to each location in order of appearance: MacLeods Vs Frasers (Glencoe) - Next to Road Loch Shiel (Glenfinnan) - Carpark, small walk to shore. To get the high angle shot, need to go up monument Eilean Donan (Clan MacLeod's Castle) - Car Park Ralston Cairn (Connor & Heather's Homested - Glencoe) - Next to a road but this one will need a bit of a climb to find the outcrop of rocks. Dun Dubh (Training Montage) - Probably the hardest as it's a 0.6 mile walk on a slight gradient from the Quiraing car park. Village Field (Glen Nevis) - Next to road. Gate was closed but I entered it to get my shot amongst some sheep! Refuge Bay (Beach) - Tricky one to find. Best look out for the rocks on the south side of the beach. This was all done in October so I think you'll be ok! If you need any further details, I can create a map of exact locations and where I started from and email it over. Happy Hunting!
Stuart Breedon Hi there my goodness that would be amazing! Thank you so much for the tips. I’m pretty much going to copy exactly what you have done. Let’s hope the Porsche doesn’t break down in the middle of nowhere with no reception 😂 How do I privately send you my email address? Thanks in advance buddy 😎
It’s been a goal of mine to visit these spots and I intend to in the next few years. Were the drives between spots very long or did you do a few in a day?
Some are quite close, but other locations were further away. Yes we were there for a few days. For example the first stop was the battle field, then onto Heather & Connors home (2.6 miles away), then onto the Village Field (24.8 miles away), then to Glenfinnan's Loch Shiel (18.6 miles) on to Morar Beach (24.2 Miles Away). We stayed at Fort Augustus on the southern shore of Loch Ness, so it was still an extra 47 Miles to Eilean Donan Castle, then another 62 miles to the locations on the Isle of Skye. It's a big long round trip. If you need any extra info on exact locations, let me know :)
Stuart Breedon thanks for all this info. I was wondering if I should look into guided tours or if I’m better on my own. Are there public ways to get there or is it just best to rent a car? Coming from USA.
Hey matey. I messaged you a while ago asking about Highlander music you used etc, anyway, as I said in the message, I was making Scottish Highlander Locations videos, well the first one is up on my page and as a fellow highlander fan I thought you might be interested to watch. It’s on mackie outdoors matey, hope your well 🏴🗡
@@MidiansMusic yes mate you did and thank you for replying again. I reckoned as a fellow Highlander fan my video would be right up your street. Hope your well you and yer misses 🏴👍🗡
It was never a real building, just stage materials. Besides, there's a main road directly underneath. The only thing that is still there from the movie is the pyramid of stones.
Morning Buddy. Part two of my Scottish highlander videos is up. If your interested, look for part two on my page. It over an hour long so have a wee double Glenmorangie on the rocks at hand 😆. Hope your well. Dene.
Hey buddy. Loved the video, a man after my own heart. I’m going to be doing a small documentary on the Scotland Highlander locations and the tune you use by Michael Kamen is what I’d also like to use on my video. Can you tell me please where you got the rights to use the music please? I know there’s places where you can do this, pay a small fee and it’s copyright free, but it’s mostly chart music. Any help and I’d be very grateful. Best wishes. Dene.
Hi, ok..in a nutshell I just used the music! During the upload process I wait to see if it's accepted, adverts attached, or block in countries. On this occasion, I believe adverts were added. Also, you won't be able to monetise the video (which i don't care about).
@@mackieoutdoors9410 Hi Dene, I couldn't find your comment about the Village Field. If you're still trying to find it, have you downloaded my power point from the info? This should help you
Hard to believe that there's 400 years difference between the photos. Amazing
This just shows how beautiful Scotland is. No CGI at all. Great video
Long after we are gone, these locations will look the same. Scotland is timeless. Thanks for sharing.

Brilliantly put together !
Great video, we regularly go on pilgrimage to all these locations, some of the best country in the world.
Wow, thanks Stuart, I'vr been in Scotland but I didn't know the locations. I've been in some of them but by the chance, great video, thanks.
Thank you for this wonderful trip. Highlander was the film that made Escocia( i'm brazilian) definitely enter my soul

Acabei de rever Highlander e fiz essa busca. Ficou fantastico seu video. Vou gravar pra fazer esse roteiro !.. Obrigado por compartilhar.
Amazing! Thank you for such an incredible video. I love the Highlander franchise and this was a real gem.
Highlander, the immortal man. I watched the movies. In 2.20 timeline, probably the moment when someone drowned. Nice job Stuart, nice to meet you

I have question ' the old building in the movies ' what today is destroyed' this bulding was really there or only put it there for the movie
