Excursion Historic highlands discovery tour at Fort William

Historic Highlands have plenty of local points of interest worth a visit. Drive to the village of Glenfinnan, best known for the stunning railway viaduct which featured in a Harry Potter movie. Continue to the nearby village of Banavie where the 60-mile-long Caledonian Canal begins and ends its route across the entire country. Stroll to the canal’s Neptune's Staircase, the longest staircase lock in the United Kingdom. Then, stop at the Old Inverlochy castle, this 13th-century ruined castle nestled on the shore of the River Lochy, and enjoy some for tea/coffee and cake at the Highland Soaps Visitor center.

Note

Please note: This tour requires a minimal amount of walking. Walking at Glenfinnan is at the discretion of each guest. Optional walk of approx. 250 yards on level ground at Banavie to view the Lock system.
