The Kelpies & The Helix
On the return journey to Edinburgh, stop to admire one of Scotland's most spectacular and distinctive modern landmarks. Standing 30 metres tall, The Kelpies are the world's largest equine sculptures, crafted from gleaming steel and inspired by the mythical water horses of Scottish folklore. A celebration of both Scotland's rich industrial heritage and its ancient legends, these extraordinary structures make for one of the most striking and memorable photo opportunities of the entire trip.
