MG Communications has been appointed by Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park to raise awareness of ScottsLand, a progamme of events to mark the 200 anniversary of Sir Walter Scott’s poem The Lady of the Lake.

From June to October 2010 ScottsLand, a programme of cultural and literary events co-ordinated and promoted by The National Park, will take place throughout the Trossachs and in Glasgow, Edinburgh and Stirling.

As part of the literary strand of ScottsLand, The Edinburgh International Book Festival will host a debate on Scott’s impact on Scotland.

A series of walks and outdoor activities including a new legacy art and literary trail at Loch Katrine have been launched. Trossachs Doors Open Weekend, a literary conference featuring Scott and The Trossachs and a range of exhibitions and cruises will also be on offer.

Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park is being supported by The Forestry Commission Scotland, Scottish National Heritage and Event Scotland in delivering this programme of exciting events.
