🍁 AUTUMN IN SCOTLAND

Travel to Scotland in autumn Visit Scotland after the summer, but before the winter to experience the best of both worlds. In early autumn you can enjoy the last remnants of summer temperatures and the start of the cosier season. Read on for our top suggestions on where to go at this time of year and what you can expect. We’ve answered your most frequently asked questions to help you plan your autumn trip to Scotland. WHEN IS AUTUMN IN SCOTLAND? Autumn, or fall, in the Northern Hemisphere is technically from the September equinox to the December solstice. In terms of truer season, Scotland experiences this transitional season along the months of September, October and November. Autumn is marked by a drop of temperatures and a change in the foliage colour. It is also when attractions and accommodation close up after the busy summer season. The months of autumn, or fall, are usually September, October and November. However, for travelling at this time of year, we’ll stick to the first two. This is because October is usually the end of the busy travel season. From November, the winter starts to set in, attractions close for the season, or there are reduced hours of operation. The end of October also marks the end of daylight saving. This means that the days get shorter and darker from that point on. September and October are transitional months in Scotland, between the cool summer and wet winter. The foliage will start to change to autumnal colours, the days will become shorter and the temperatures start to drop. At this time of year, the transition from summer to winter means the weather can be varied. You may encounter warm days between 15-20°C (59-68°F), but generally the temperatures start to fall toward an average of 10°C (50°F). WHEN ARE FALL COLOURS IN SCOTLAND? Come between late September and early November to enjoy the gorgeous changing foliage and autumnal colours. In Scotland, trees change from green to golden, with orange, yellow and red hues. Head for forested areas to make the most of it. We recommend the Loch Lomond area, Highland Perthshire and Deeside, where the landscapes are exceptionally beautiful. #placetosee #stunningbeach #londontrip #beachparty #boracaytrip #bangkoktrip #beijingtrip #tokyotrip #shenzhentrip #sanyatrip #newyortrip ¹#hangzhoutrip #beachlovers #topbeach #placetovisit #bestbeach #travel #perfectbeach
