Full Details and Itinerary

Day 1 takes you West and onto the "bonny, bonny banks" of Loch Lomond - the largest area of fresh water in the country. The wee village of Luss makes an interesting stop here. Continue to Crianlarich and take a left turn through Tyndrum, over the bleak beauty of Rannoch Moor and into the infamous and haunting landscape of Glencoe. Cross over the Ballachulish Bridge and make your way down to the Corran Ferry. On the other side at Ardgour your tour can make its way to Strontian then Lochailort or asimilar village for your group stay for 3 nights.

Day 2 and 3 leaves you freedom to explore the wonderful, rugged landscape of the Ardnamurchan Peninsula. It is a natural haven for wildlife and an area of exceptional tranquility and beauty. The ruins of the 14th Century Castle Tioram lie just to the South - it's the ancient seat of the Macdonalds of Clanranald and sits on a small islet by the shore, accessible via a sand spit - except at high tide! You can wander along the coast road, stopping at Glenborrodale to visit the Nature Reserve or drive right out to Sanna Point for a walk along the sandy beach with fine views over to the Small Isles. One of the country's most scenic roads will take you out to Ardnamurchan Point and the granite lighthouse, built in 1848 marking the most Westerly point on the British mainland. The road North will take you to Mallaig via the White Sands of Morar - a beautiful drive with plenty of places to stop for lunch or a walk. Mallaig is a picturesque fishing port and ferry terminal with excellent day trips over the sea to Skye and to the Small Isles of Eigg, Muck, Rum and Canna. You can travel over the sea to Skye on the "Early Bird Saver", leaving on the first sailing of the day and returning to Mallaig on the last one.It is necessary to book this crossing. It is also possible for small groups to visit the Island of Mull, by taking the 5 minute ferry from Lochaline.

Day 4. Depart Lochailort and go East through Glenfinnan with it's fine monument to Bonnie Prince Charlie and the Jacobite Cause, standing majestically at the head of Loch Sheil. Out onto the main road where you can visit Fort William - the second largest town in the Highlands after Inverness. Being the home to Ben Nevis - the highest mountain in the British Isles, it's appeal lies more in the surroundings rather than the town itself. Cross over the bridge at Ballachulish again and down the shores of Loch Linnhe, through the wooded landscape of Appin. You will pass the well restored and picturesque Castle Stalker, set on an islet off the headland. It dates back to the early 16th century and was home of the Stewarts of Appin. You can take time to visit the town of Oban, before going through the Pass of Brander to Dalmally. A nice detour here is the single track road through Glen Orchy, running alongside cascading waterfalls from the River. You will meet the main road again at Tyndrum and can make your way back south via Callander and Stirling.
