Glen Affric Guided Winter WalkGlen Affric Guided Walk

A walk through remote Glen Affric is more than just sightseeing; it is an immersive experience that will awaken your senses and leave you with a profound appreciation for the natural wonders.
Your Journey Begins:

We whisk you away from your Inverness city-centre accommodation at around 9:30 AM, marking the start of your small-group walking tour through the captivating heart of the Highlands. As we journey for an hour along the scenic shores of the Beauly Firth and up the lovely Strath Glass, captivating countryside views unfold around every bend.
First Stop – Majestic Plodda Falls:

Our first rendezvous with nature is at the majestic Plodda Falls, nestled near the quaint conservation village of Tomich, the birthplace of the beloved Golden Retriever dogs. Here, we embark on a leisurely 2.5 km stroll through towering stands of Douglas Fir, leading us to the Abhainn Deabhag River. Following the river upstream, we arrive at the breathtaking spectacle of the 46-metre high Plodda Falls. Witnessing their full glory after heavy rainfall is a truly awe-inspiring experience. For those with a head for heights, a cantilevered viewing platform offers a stunning perspective of the cascading falls.
Into the Heart of Glen Affric:

A scenic 20-minute drive further reveals the treasures of the Glen Affric National Nature Reserve. Here, we encounter one of the largest remnants of the ancient Caledonian Pine Forest that once blanketed 80% of Scotland. This haven for wildlife, including Golden Eagles, Sea Eagles, and Black-throated Divers, forms the core of the grand “Affric Highlands” re-wilding project, a testament to nature’s resilience. Prepare to be touched by the soul of this extraordinary place.
Lunchtime Delights and Loch Affric Viewpoint:

We then savour a picnic lunch bursting with delicious local produce, followed by visits to a rugged river section and a breathtaking viewpoint overlooking the upper glen and Loch Affric.
Dog Falls and a Walk Through the Ancient Forest:

Our next stop is the enchanting Dog Falls, where a 1.5-2 hour guided walk immerses us in the heart of the ancient forest. As we traverse the peaceful trails, we’ll have opportunities to spot native flora and fauna, breathing in the crisp Highland air and truly connecting with nature.
Return Journey and Lasting Memories:

With memories etched in hearts and cameras alike, we head back to the minibus for a scenic return journey to Inverness via Drumnadrochit and the shores of Loch Ness. As the day draws to a close you will depart with a sense of wonder, having experienced the magic of snow-capped mountains, ancient forests and embraced the true spirit of the Highlands.
