Ancient Bronze Age cairns and standing stones, echoing Outlander’s Craigh na Dun near Inverness.

Clava Cairns, a prehistoric cemetery near Inverness, features Bronze Age passage graves, ring cairns and standing stones in a tranquil wood. Although not directly named in Outlander, its weathered stones and mysterious atmosphere strongly resemble the fictional stone circle of Craigh na Dun that transports Claire back in time. The site, over 4,000 years old, invites quiet exploration rather than formal interpretation. Visitors can wander between moss-covered boulders, study faint cup marks and gaze through stone alignments that once framed midwinter sunsets. It offers a powerful sense of continuity between ancient ritual landscapes and the time-travel mythology that captivates fans of the series.
