Set against the scenic Whitekirk Hill in North Berwick, the Mini Highland Games delivers a lively, team-focused experience that blends traditional Scottish sports with playful challenges. Participants form clans led by a clan leader in traditional attire and compete across activities such as axe throwing, caber tossing, wheatsheaf and wellie hurling, an alpine skiing team challenge and a mini assault course. The day builds to a final tug-of-war showdown, and guests can add a whisky tasting or distillery tour at Glenkinchie for a fuller East Lothian experience.
