Exact Location of Hogsmeade -
Ruby Urquart - February 6, 2021
For the purposes of drafting birth charts, one needs to know the exact location of birth. Hogsmeade, being an imaginary place, obviously doesn't exist on any map. I'm asking if we can establish that it's close-ish to some other known Scottish town? The internet says that Hogsmeade is in the Highlands. So let's say that when I need to use an exact location I can put in Inverness? Or idk someone actually from the UK might have a better suggestion.
I realize this is relevant information only for people with characters involved in Divination, but it's important for me, okay? >.>

From the HP wiki:
Quote:Google Maps gives a location for Hogsmeade, on the northern slopes of Sgurr a'Choire Ghlais (Peak of the Grey Corrie) in the Scottish Highlands about 25 miles west of Inverness.[18] The site is remote wilderness and may be reached only by experienced and well-equipped hillwalkers. A general view of the area is available at geograph.org.uk[19] It seems likely that the spot was chosen for its inaccessibility.
