Itinerary:
We will set off at 8:30 shaprt, in order to make it in time to Glenfinnan to see the train go past.
The beautiful village of Luss, nestled on the banks of Loch Lomond, is our first stop. You will have 30 mins to explore this wonderful quaint heritage village, which has been voted as ‘the most beautiful village in Scotland’.
Next is Inveruglas: a pyramid-shaped raised platform providing a great vantage point of Loch Lomond to enjoy the scenery and take pictures.
Drive to the Loch Tulla viewpoint, which encompasses everything that The Highlands have to offer, from rising mountains to lochs and pine forests.
Continue to Rannoch Moor, often referred to as the most desolate place in the UK, due to being the largest bog expanse in the British Isles. It was also used as the setting for the filming of scenes of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
Next is The Meeting of the 3 Waters: an iconic waterfall in the Glencoe valley, and then on to the Three Sisters of Glencoe, the most photographed place in Scotland. These three mountain peaks were formed 420 million years ago whilst the valley below was carved by glaciers over millions of years. There is a hidden glen behind it that was used by the MacDonald clan to hide cattle stolen from their neighbors.
We will then head to Fort William, the gateway to the Highlands, where we can grab some quick food to go. Rising above all other mountains in the UK, Ben Nevis is the tallest, and overshadows Fort William. Take in the scenery and take captivating photos.
Finally, we will arrive at the Glenfinnan Viaduct, the main attraction of the day. Embrace the magical setting of this world-famous Harry Potter film location and witness the ‘Hogwarts Express’ steam train crossing the Glenfinnan Viaduct. A 5-minute walk is the lone Highlander on top of Glenfinnan Monument, a testament to the Jacobite soldiers that lost their lives at the Battle of Culloden. Climb up the tower for an unrivaled view of Loch Shiel.
We will then go to the Commando Monument, a large three-figure bronze statue commemorating the service and sacrifice given by thousands of Allied troops during the Second World War, with Ben Nevis looming in the background.
Finally we will drive you home, but we will stop briefly at Bankfoot to hand feed the Highland Hairy 'Coos'.
