What is the Jacobite Trail?

The Jacobite era is one of the most fascinating periods in Scotland’s dramatic history.

It is a time of loyalty, loss, exile and retribution.

Jacobites were supporters of King James II (Jacobus is Latin for James) and the attempts to restore the Stuarts to the throne from 1688 until the 1750s.

The Jacobite Trail exists to promote both the story and the locations that play a part in it.
