Absolute Location of Scotland: Latitude & Longitude Ranges

Scotland lies between:

• Latitude: 55° 33′ 08″ N to 60° 50′ 29″ N
• Longitude: 1° 45′ 22″ W to 6° 13′ 53″ W

This places the mainland entirely north of the 55th parallel, with the Shetland Islands reaching nearly 61° N—on par with Anchorage, Alaska and southern Greenland.
