When is the best time to go Scotland and miss midgies?

The midge season in Scotland typically lasts from late May to early September, with the peak season occurring in July and August. Scotland has a very diverse climate and the best time to visit depends on your interests.

However, if you're looking to avoid the midges, the best time to go to Scotland is during the winter months, from November to March. The weather can be cold and wet during this time, but the midges will be gone.
