Loch Ness,Glencoe & The Highlands

Event location: Timberbush Tours. Ongoing event.

A full day tour, taking in some of the most dramatic scenery of the Scottish Highlands Visit Glencoe and enjoy options for a Loch Ness cruise and visit to Urquhart Castle.

From Glasgow we travel north, before making a coffee stop on the shores of Loch Lomond. Travelling the length of the loch, we climb up into the Highlands, over the unique, desolate landscape of Rannoch Moor and the Black Mount to majestic Glencoe, one of Scotland's best-loved glens, site of the 1692 massacre of the MacDonald clan.

We stop in the Fort William area for lunch and then afterwards continue into the natural beauty of the Great Glen, as we pass beneath Britain's highest mountain, Ben Nevis. Travelling on, we admire the Caledonian Canal, and the pretty village of Fort Augustus, enjoying spectacular views of Loch Ness as we drive along the 24-mile shoreline to Urquhart Castle.

Loch Ness, 24 miles long and over 700 feet deep is more famous for its sightings of the Loch Ness monster, affectionately known as Nessie. Spend approximately two hours at Loch Ness, where you can choose to take a wonderful 5 Star Jacobite cruise and explore the ruins of Urquhart Castle and its modern visitor centre.

At Inverness, Capital of the Highlands, we start our return for home, crossing the Grampian Mountains and the woodland scenery of Perthshire, including the Forest of Atholl, with an evening stop at the Victorian resort town of Pitlochry en route back to Glasgow.
