Message from Kieran - Exploring Scotland

Come explore the ancient and mysterious Calanais Standing Stones on the Isle of Lewis! These incredible megaliths, over 5,000 years old, form a unique cross-shaped setting that predates Stonehenge. Some say they were used as an astronomical observatory, with the moon dancing low over the hills every 18.6 years. Channel your inner archaeologist and uncover the secrets of this fascinating Neolithic site while enjoying stunning views and possibly spotting a few mystical moon dances of your own!
