The '''Scottish Lowlands''' are a region of south and central [[Scotland]]. The vast majority of Scotland's population inhabits this region which comprises the non-[[Scottish Highlands|Highland]] parts of the country. Areas included within the Lowlands are Strathmore, [[Fife]], the [[Scottish Rift Valley]] and the [[Southern Uplands]] and [[Borders]].

The term refers to the comparitively lower [[latitude]]s of the region rather than to its [[topography]]; although the Highlands are considerably more mountainous, the Lowlands are far from flat. However a few authorities do place the Northern, but flat county of [[Caithness]] in the Lowlands.
