Cross the Highlands from Inverness to the sheltered shores of Loch Broom and the village of Ullapool. It is a hauntingly beautiful location; stunning in the long days of summer sun, moody and magnificent in the darkness of winter - a perfect roosting place for The Green Man & the Raven's Quest, with corvids aplenty.
