A 50-mile trail through the rugged Scottish landscape.
Reviewed By jpseddie - Poole, United Kingdom
We did the "Road to the Isles Road Trip" from Fort William all the way and enjoyed it very much. fantastic scenery with mountains rivers and waterfalls all around. Half way point make sure you stop at the Glenfinnan monument and viaduct . For Harry Potter fans the viaduct is the scene from the second movie where the Hogwarts Express caught up with the flying Ford Anglia!. The Glenfinnan Monument has a visitor centre and lots of history surrounding Bonnie Prince Charlie and the views are simply amazing especially from the top looking down on the monument. We finally arrived at Mallaig just as the Jacobite Steam Train ( Hogwarts Express) was leaving ! :o)

Currently enjoying our 4th visit to Tulloch Farm (Strath) with our 4 happy dogs! We usually come in January but we're benefiting from a slightly later visit this year as there has already been plenty of snow! We love being on the farm with the horses, goats & chickens, we even saw a big stag from the cottage yesterday morning. Cottages are spacious, homely & perfect for the dogs, it's such a great place for a quiet & peaceful break. Love the fire, gets so hot in the evening that you have to open the doors! Owners are always really helpful & ensure you have everything you need for the perfect holiday. We'll be back again next year! Highly recommend! Thank you! ❤️????

A private burial ground, open to the public to visit, and in a beautiful setting. My MacDonald ancestors, Angus and Sarah MacDonald are buried here as are my great-aunt Ann Winifred and cousin Alastair Macdonald Watson RNVR who commanded MGBs and MTBs in the Second World War.

Tulloch Ringing Centre is a privately owned Scottish ringing centre, which contains the most northerly ring of 12 bells. The bells are available 24/7, 365 days a year. Come for a grab, a ringing course, a peal, an outing or just to look. Lots to do for non-ringing Klingons of all ages.
5. Our Lady of Perpetual Succour and St. Cumin's RC Church

Having established a residence in Morar, and conscious of his tenants moving westward, Simon Lord Lovat decided that the time had come to provide 'a more suitable place of worship than the former inconvenient and unsightly chapel at Bracara.' The site he chose lay at the foot of Cruach Bheoraid looking across to the islands.

Worth the climb for the superb view and be sure to also visit the lovely little station where the “Hogwart’s Express” puffs it’s way through four times a day.

Diane & I fortunately opted to curtail time spent in (rather disappointing) Ft William in favour of a visit here during a National Holidays excursion and were glad we did - the weather was just perfect, crisp & clear with panoramic views of snow-capped hills, including Ben Nevis. A fitting tribute to brave men..........

Famous in being most westerly but the spot of the lighthouse and cafe are brilliant with amazing views across the islands. The cafe didn't really so lunch (no soup etc) which was a shame but we survivied on crisps and cake! Well worth the drive out there to see even though the vistor centre was shut. - there is an amazing fog horn!

We stopped at the viaduct on our way to Skye and we were certainly not disappointed! Timed to perfection we managed to be there for the passing Jacobite Steam Train and found the perfect spot to capture some amazing video footage and photo’s. Our visit was topped off with a beautiful double rainbow over the viaduct!! If you are a Harry Potter fan this is not to be missed - if you appreciate the beautiful countryside and architecture; again this is not to be missed.
