Fort William, Highlands and Islands -travel information and accommodation

Fort William is the place to be for those with an appreciation of the great outdoors. The West Highlands scenery is truly stunning and many of the activities on offer here include the likes of: walking, serious hiking trails, trekking, climbing, angling, canoeing and mountain biking to name but a few. The area is also a favourite of filmmakers, with the dramatic scenery making it the perfect location for several blockbusters that have been made here such as Rob Roy, Braveheart and Harry Potter.

Of all the sights to see in this neck of the woods every visitor absolutely must visit Ben Nevis. It dominates the landscape of Fort William and is Britain’s highest mountain, standing a majestic 4490ft tall. Visitors are welcome can attempt to climb the mountain or test out the gondola style cable car, or simply take to the waters of the loch below for another perspective that is every bit as impressive.

The other not to be missed experience is a ride on board the Jacobite Steam Train. Imagine yourself on board the Hogwarts Express, yes it was this journey around the Glenfinnan Viaduct that was used in one of the Harry Potter films. Even without the movie’s special effects you’ll see many natural wonders on the route from Fort William to Mallaig. Nearby Glen Nevis is another popular spot with ramblers and the glorious Caledonian Canal is quite stunning. In winter there’s also the opportunity for a spot of skiing or snowboarding at the Nevis Range Ski Centre, so whatever time of year you visit you can be sure you won’t be short of things to occupy your time.
