Islands
In the Hebrides, the lights can be seen on Lewis, Harris and at the most northerly tip of Skye. Further north, you can also catch the lights in Shetland, Orkney and Caithness.
West Coast
Places like Applecross, Lochinver and north of Ullapool are great spots on the far north west coast of Scotland to catch a glimpse of the Aurora Borealis.
Central
Rannoch Moor, Perthshire and the Cairngorms are all places where the lights have been spotted.
East Coast
The elusive Aurora Borealis can also be seen on the east coast. Sometimes you just need a bit of luck! When the conditions are right, the lights have been spotted in Aberdeenshire and the Moray Coast, Angus, Fife and East Lothian.
Edinburgh
If an aurora is strong, it can occasionally be seen in the capital. Some of the best vantage points in Edinburgh include Calton Hill, Blackford Hill and Arthur's Seat.
The South
One of the best places to view the Northern Lights is in Galloway Forest Park - the only Dark Sky Park in Scotland!
