Halloween traditions in Scotland go back centuries and are rooted in Celtic legends filled with tales of witches and wanderers. Carved neeps, bright bonfires, and scary disguises warded off evil spirits.

Today, Halloween brings a lighter touch: pumpkin-lit porches, apple dooking, treacle scones, and the merry laughter of children going from house to house.

Yet the stories linger. Scotland’s rich tapestry of tales awaits those curious enough to stop and listen.

This seasonal snap was captured by our Head of Marketing, Ben, on a walk in the Cairngorms National Park.

Meet Jenny Graham, former Guinness world record holder for the fastest woman to circumnavigate the world by bike. Jenny set the record in 2018 with an incredible time of 124 days and 11 hours. She held it until last week when American Lael Wilcox set the new record, beating Jenny’s time by a little over two weeks.
