Drumlanrig Castle	Caerlaverock Castle One of Scotland's greatest forts is now a nature and wildfowl centre founded by Sir Peter Scott. Perhaps one of the most unexpected sights in the Nith Valley are the sculptures by Henry Moore, Rodin and Epstein dotted around the Dumfries reservoir at Glenkiln. The village of Wanlockhead, 10 miles north is the highest in Scotland, and offers, in the mining museum, a wealth of information on the centuries when gold, silver and copper were mined there.
