Named after the author Sir Walter Scott, who played a huge part in romanticising Loch Katrine in his poem Lady of the Lake.
Enjoy a sailing on the world's last sea-going paddle steamer - the Waverley!
One of the most iconic and historic ships – Waverley is the last sea-going paddle steamer in the world. Magnificently restored to her former glory with towering funnels, timber decks, gleaming varnish and brass. You can see and hear the mighty steam engines as the Waverley glides through the sea, giving passengers a glimpse of by-gone times.
Ride on the Jacobite Steam Train
The Jacobite Steam Train is described as the greatest railway journey in the world and explores some of the best landscapes in the Scottish Highlands. The trip begins near Ben Nevis, Great Britain’s highest mountain, before heading west to Arisaig. The Jacobite line then passes close by the deepest freshwater Loch in Britain, Loch Morar, and the shortest river in Britain, River Morar. Finally, the train passes alongside Loch Nevis, the deepest seawater Loch in Europe.
