Burghead Fort and Visitor Centre

The Headland at Burghead is an open, grassland and rocky peninsular. Once a Pict Fort, the mounds and plateau link the site to days gone by. A whitewashed Visitor Centre tells more of the story as well as that of the fishing heritage of the village. You can park at the far end of the open area and a paved pathway leads to the visitor centre. You can walk beyond this over the grassland to take in the views of the rocks, the fort contours and the rolling of the waves as they hit the headland.
