The Historylinks Trail is a flat walking tour of Dornoch's past told through a series of 15 interpretation panels withing the town (and one at Meikle Ferry - 4 miles away).
The starting point for the trail is Historylinks Museum and a leaflet, available at the reception desk and from a dispenser outside the Museum, includes a map and details of the main locations to be visited.
There is a display board at each site but, if you wish to have more detail, illustrated guide books in English, Gaelic, French, German and Italian are available for purchase at the museum shop.
Dornoch is unusual, in that so much of our heritage is accessible. Stroll among the gravestones in the churchyard, looking for familiar names. Contemplate your fate in a cell in the jail (now a shop). Imagine how poor wretches met their deaths at the hands of the executioner at several sites.
