Falkland, Fife Walking Tour | Outlander Filming Locations | Scotland in 4K

Falkland is a picturesque town in Fife, famous for its royal palace.

Falkland nestles between the two Lomond Hills in the Howe of Fife. It is most well known for Falkland Palace. This royal dwelling was once the country residence of the Stewart kings and queens as they hunted deer and wild boar in the forests of Fife. Built between 1501 and 1541 by James IV and James V, the palace has some of the most exceptional architecture of its time in Britain. It is also home to one of only two 16th century tennis courts in Britain (the other is at Hampton Court in England).

Filming occurred in the village of Falkland for many of the earlier seasons of Outlander Starz, and in Season 2 the palace itself was used!

Falkland village features in Season 1 of Outlander, when it stands in for 1940s Inverness for Frank (Tobias Menzies) and Claire’s (Caitriona Balfe) honeymoon trip. The couple check into Mrs Baird’s B&B in the square, which is the current Covenanter Hotel. The Tyndall Bruce fountain in the middle of the high street features in a scene when the ghost of Jamie (Sam Heughan) stares up at Claire brushing her hair in Mrs Baird’s B&B. The Fayre Earth gift shop in Falkland stands in for Farrell’s furniture store, where Claire stops to look at a blue vase in the window.

In Season 2 Falkland reappears as Inverness, but this time it is the 1960s. In the first series, Campbell’s Coffee House was featured in the background as a 1940s green grocers, but in the second series it is a 1960s tea shop. The Falkland Town Hall stood in as the Inverness County Records Office, a large meeting room transformed into an archive search room where Claire, Brianna and Roger are hunting for Jamie and the deed to Lallybroch.

Falkland Palace was also used in Season 2. One of the East Range cellars was transformed into an apothecary in the episode ‘The Hail Mary’. Claire is after additional medical supplies and stumbles upon Mary Hawkins, who is asking for more laudanum for nursing Alex Randall. Visitors to the palace can explore an interactive apothecary, installed by the Trust in the same room Outlander used for filming.

Hello & welcome to Scottish Journeys. I enjoy going for walks, travelling & general sightseeing. I created this YouTube channel so I could share my journeys with you virtually. Every week, I will share videos of my leisurely strolls and bus journeys throughout Scotland (plus the occasional bagpipe video). My videos offer a serene and tranquil experience, with no background music or commentary, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the calming ambience of nature. Through my lens, you can appreciate the beauty of my home country of Scotland and perhaps find inspiration for your next walk or holiday.

Most of my videos are filmed in first person perspective as a virtual walking tour or bus ride in crystal clear 4K HDR High Definition using 3D Binaural Audio 🎧 so you can experience these places as if you were there with me.

Thank you for visiting my channel, and I hope you enjoy my travels.
