If you would like to go on your own dragon hunt in Dornoch here are a few places to try .....
Dornoch Beach
Could the Dragon be playing in the beach play park or swimming in a rock pool? Why not go for a walk on the beautiful beach with its miles of golden sand.
​
If you head north on the shore from the car park, you will find Gilbert's spear sticking out of the sand. Be sure to go at low tide or take your wellies!
Camore Woods
In the book, Winston goes on a search for the Dragon in the Black Fir Woods, locally known as Camore Woods. The woods have a great kids play area, lovely walking trails, plus lots of places that a dragon may be hiding!
Dornoch Cathedral
Dornoch's beautiful Cathedral is well worth a visit for its stunning architecture and interesting history.
There are many hiding places in the Cathedral for a dragon, and you are sure to spot one if you look carefully enough! There is also a church mouse, a spider and a family of wooden birds to find.
Royal Dornoch Golf Course
If you play golf, you can book a round on the world-class Royal Dornoch Championship Course or the family-friendly Struie Course. If you are just starting out, try the short 3 hole Academy Course.
​
Watch out for the dragon. You never know what might be around the next bunker!
