  • To see a Yeti, head to Nepal

    Yetis are notoriously elusive and have only been spotted three times in history. The first sighting happened in 1921 on Mount Everest when sherpas spotted mysterious footprints they believed were those of a ‘wild man of the snows’. The yeti might still exist since these footprints were found by a mountaineering team near Makalu Base Camp in 2019. It’ll take some climbing to get high enough to see him, but it’s worth a shot.

  • Unicorns are in Scotland

    Supposed unicorn bones were found in 1872 in a cave in Germany, where the myth of unicorns has its roots. The cave became known as Unicorn Cave. In 2014, an anonymous man in Scotland saw what he described as ‘basically a horse with a horn’. That sounds about right. Unicorns are the national animal of Scotland, so it seems only fitting that they would be spotted here if they were going to be spotted anywhere. Discover whether or not the Castle of Old Wick exists by exploring the area around it.
