Jacobite Steam Train
This 84-mile round trip is described as one of the greatest railway journeys in the world, crossing the Glenfinnan Viaduct and offering a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. The Jacobite Steam Train begins near Britain's highest mountain, Ben Nevis, and travels along part of the legendary West Highland Line between Fort William and Mallaig, passing through a number of impressive locations, attractions, and natural features. You'll travel along the shores of Loch Eil, past Loch Morar, Scotland's deepest freshwater loch, and on to Mallaig, where a ferry service to the Isle of Skye is available.
When you arrive in Mallaig, soak up the atmosphere, life, and culture of a true fishing village, and while you're here, why not indulge in a tasty fish & chips where many vendors use fresh, locally caught seafood? The journey's high point is when the train crosses the iconic Glenfinnan Viaduct, from which you can gaze out at the Glenfinnan Monument and Loch Shiel in the distance. This crescent-shaped viaduct is well-known throughout the world for its remarkable engineering and appearance in the Harry Potter films. It's simply picture-perfect, and it's no surprise that it's regarded as one of Scotland's must-see attractions.
