All the Way through time and tradition
The Southern Uplands are rich in history, legend and culture. Celts, Picts, Romans and Vikings have all left their mark on a landscape both the backdrop to violent bloody battles and later to thriving industrial fortune.

The area is also famous as the stamping ground of poet Robert Burns, and admired historical novelist Sir Walter Scott, many of whose epic stories are set here. For your convenience, a number of Burn's attractions are listed together in Section Two.
