The Map of the Highland Village
Above is a map of the Highland Village in Iona which you can use to help find your way around the site. You start off in the 1770′s Highlands of Scotland and you’ll end up traveling through time to the 1920′s in Nova Scotia. Below are some pictures of some of the places you will see along the tour. The view from here is amazing!! The tour itself takes about an hour and a half to two hours.

Today, Gaelic is evident in our communities and a defining component of our cultural identity. You will find signs all over the Island written in English and Gaelic.
