Highland Religion

Highland Religion refers to spiritual practices and beliefs historically associated with the Scottish Highlands, often blending elements of Christianity—particularly Presbyterianism—and indigenous traditions. It emphasizes a close relationship with nature, community worship, and a strong sense of local identity. This spiritual outlook has been shaped by the rugged landscape and historical social structure, fostering a deep reverence for land and ancestors. While Christianity became dominant, many local customs and beliefs persisted, resulting in a unique cultural expression that intertwines faith, tradition, and nature-centered spirituality prevalent among Highland communities.
