Explore The Great Glen Way

Discover More of the Great Glen Way

The trail stretches from Fort William to Inverness, following the natural fault line of the Great Glen and passing through some of Scotland’s most striking landscapes. The section near Loch Ness is a particular favourite, with elevated paths offering stunning views across the loch’s mysterious dark waters and a real sense of Highland wilderness.

Enjoy a gentle stroll or a more ambitious walk, stopping off at places like Invermoriston with its historic bridge, or Drumnadrochit, home to the Loch Ness Centre and Exhibition. Don’t miss the chance to explore Urquhart Castle, dramatically perched above the loch – a great spot for photos and a picnic.

Whether you're walking a full section or simply enjoying a short wander, the trail is well-marked and suitable for most levels of ability. After a day of fresh air and exploration, return to the warmth and comfort of your holiday cottage – perhaps with a log fire, a soak in the bath, and a dram of something local.

With luggage transfer services available and beautiful views in every season, the Great Glen Way offers a peaceful yet rewarding way to connect with the landscape. It’s the kind of experience that stays with you – especially when paired with a relaxing stay in one of our welcoming Highland homes.
