Learners walk in the footsteps of the original Crannog dwellers and are immersed in village life with original artefacts; demonstrations of textiles, cooking and ancient crafts & technologies; paddle into prehistory in one of our replica logboats (weather permitting) and take in the atmosphere inside the Crannog Roundhouse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

An educational visit to the Scottish Crannog Centre is a unique experience enhanced by the sights and smells inside the atmospheric Crannog roundhouse. Students of all ages leave with a greater understanding of how ancient people lived in Scotland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hands-on activities mean that students also get a taste of daily life within the ancient Crannog community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
