"Highlands" is a song by Bob Dylan, released on his 30th studio album Time Out of Mind in 1997. It is Dylan's longest known studio recording at sixteen minutes and thirty-one seconds. The song's title is borrowed from the poem "My Heart's in the Highlands" by Scottish poet Robert Burns. In the song's lyrics, Dylan makes references to musician Neil Young and author Erica Jong.
Highlands is the ninth album by the Christian rock band White Heart and the band's last album with Star Song Records.

Highlands is a 6-part documentary series produced by STV Productions (then known as "SMG Productions") and broadcast on STV in Northern and Central Scotland and The History Channel (UK), presented by Taggart actor John Michie.
Highlands focused on the Highland Clearances of the late 18th & early 19th centuries and the political & religious events that led to the forced displacements and widespread evictions which diluted the culture of area and led to mass emigration to the Lowlands, the coast and abroad.
Locations featured in the series included Culloden, Glenfinnan, Urquhart Castle, Strathcarron and Durness. The Earl of Cromartie and author/historian Jim Hunter were amongst the featured local highlanders and historians featured.
Since its original broadcast, the series has since been aired on History (UK) and released on DVD.
