SIGHTSEEING
In and around Fort William, you get spectacular views of Ben Nevis.
The gondola at the Nevis Range is open all year (except for
mid November - mid December) and from the top there are wonderful views of the town, Loch Linnhe and Loch Eil.
The area is used for skiing and snowboarding in the winter.
Nearby Glen Nevis (where the film Braveheart was made) is a popular walking and climbing area.
4 miles from town is Neptune's Staircase - a series of lock gates on the Caledonian Canal. It enables boats passing through the canal to be raised or lowered the 30 metre difference between Loch Linnhe and Loch Lochy.
Glencoe, another area of scenic beauty, popular with walkers, climbers and skiiers
is a short drive from Fort William.

For a pleasant outing take the scenic Road to the Isles to Mallaig (45 miles) where the ferry departs for Skye. Along the way you can enjoy beaches such as the Silver Sands at Morar or take a cruise to the Small Isles.
Day trips on a steam train are available from Fort William to Mallaig during the summer months.
|
Only 25 minutes along the Road to the Isles is the Glenfinnan Monument.
Surrounded by hills at the head of Loch Shiel, it overlooks a wonderful sea inlet (see picture below).
The National Trust Visitor Centre here features the story of Bonnie Prince Charlie and the Jacobite Rebellion.
The picturesque station has a railway museum.
Slightly further afield, but still within a day's drive, are places such as Oban (50 miles),
Inverness (65 miles) and the Skye Bridge (75 miles).
Eilean Donan Castle (pictured below) is less than 70 miles away on the road to Skye.
We look forward to welcoming you to Fort William.
