It dates back centuries
While Scotland is known for its iconic landscapes that have long captivated travellers far and wide, it is also home to many hidden spots that even many locals don't know about.
One of the more captivating sites in Scotland that you may not have heard of is the clootie well near Munlochy on the Black Isle peninsula in the Highlands. A clootie well is a sacred spring, usually within a forest, where pieces of cloth or rags are hung on trees as part of a healing ritual. Situated within the woods near Munlochy, the site has a strange — and even unsettling — atmosphere. Walking around, trees are completely covered in bits of cloth, and you really get the sense that you are at an important and historic site.
