Day Trips in Fort William
Edit This
From the A82 to Inverness there is a junction at Spean Bridge, soon reached, that leads to Aviemore and the Cairngorms. Going south, beyond Loch Leven you come to some of the best scenery south of Skye in the Glencoe area. You can leave this road to the west before this and take the Corran Ferry, one of the last ferries left in Scotland other than those to the Islands, to reach the peace of Ardgour, Ardnamurchan and Moidart. West the A830 follows a delightful course to Mallaig [see Small Isles] Turning right off this on the B8004 parallel to the A82 enables you to see a stretch of the Caledonian Canal with some electrically operated locks.
Lastly you can leave the north bound A82 to the west on one of the two approaches to the great wilderness area of Knoydart.

have seen in movies like The Highlander, the mountainous scenery is
breathtaking with a dramatic coastline. The Highlands are the largest
of the 32 council areas in Scotland, merging the former counties of
Ross and Cromarty, all of Sutherland, Caithness and Nairnshire, and
parts of Argyll and Moray. Although the Scottish highlands do stretch
further south this area is governed by the Highland Council.
