Weather
The weather in Stirling can best be described as changeable. In July the maximum daily temperature can vary between extremes of 10 and 30 degrees Celsius, but is generally between 15-25C. Be prepared for rain and sun, but not snow.
Stirling’s high latitude, whilst not quite making it the land of the midnight sun, does make for long twilight evenings at this time of year.
