First Day - South
Arrive at the Highland Hotel in time for dinner.
Mallaig
Mallaig is a fishing port in Morar which lies at the end of the evocatively named "Road to the Isles." It is also the terminus for the West Highland Railway from Fort William and the focus for a network of ferry services to Skye, to the Small Isles, to South Uist and to the Knoydart peninsula. In 1841 all that stood at this extreme north-western corner of North Morar was a farmstead known as Mallaigvaig with a population of 23. The owner of the North Morar Estate at the time was Lord Lovat and he divided the farm there into a series of plots with a view to attracting his tenants from the then, more populated parts of the estate along Loch Morar and Loch Nevis to resettle here and take up fishing as an occupation. Mallaig is still, at its heart, a working fishing port and prides itself on its fresh catches including traditionally smoked kippers. Enjoy one of the many short walks around the harbour or soak up the local atmosphere and relax.
Inverness & Loch Ness
Also known as the ‘Highland Capital’, Inverness is the main city in the Scottish Highlands and although it is one of the fastest growing cities in Europe it still retains its market town atmosphere. Inverness offers a wide range of local produce and shops to explore as well as castles and heritage sites. Just a short distance away lies Scotland’s most famous Loch, known around the world thanks to its elusive monster. The Loch Ness Monster, Nessie, is undoubtedly the biggest attraction in the area. There have been rumours of a beast in the water since the 7th century but the first recorded sightings date back to 1933. The legend of Nessie remains unproven but explore this area to see for yourself! As well as the monster, Loch Ness has many other attractions including Urquhart Castle. A former royal castle, Urquhart has witnessed some of Scotland’s most dramatic history.
