Lorna studied music at the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama. After graduating, she joined the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra and subsequently the Scottish Chamber Orchestra as an orchestral violinist, playing throughout the UK and around the world. Meanwhile, her interest in Scotland's history, culture and amazing landscapes grew as she pursued her hobbies of hill-walking, sailing and cycling around the country. After completing the Munros (mountains over 3,000ft) in 1994, she knew she wanted to share this passion, and to this end qualified as a hillwalking guide in 1996 and a Blue Badge Guide in 2000. Since then she has had the privilege of guiding people from all over the world, not only to our main tourist sites in the cities, but throughout the Highlands and Islands.
