5 day tour Scottish Highland Railways
Liathach and its Torridon mountain neighbours on clear days. The return coach journey back to your hotel starts with a brief visit to Kyleakin on the renowned Isle of Skye, before stopping en route at one of Scotland’s most iconic castles, Eilean Donan, and the banks of Loch Ness. Day 3: Aviemore Board the Strathspey Steam Railway, a wonderful reminder of the golden days of steam. This takes you through some delightful, unspoilt Highland scenery, and past great sweets of the River Spey, through moorland and forest. Head to Aviemore, for an opportunity to explore the famous resort town, which is one of Britain’s most famous outward-bound centres. Visit the Cairngorm Reindeer centre, to experience up close, the lives of reindeers with their handlers. Afterwards, drive through twisting mountain roads to the Cairngorm Mountain visitor centre. Day 4: Fort William & Mallaig Journey on the last stretch of the famous West Highland Line, to the tiny fishing village of Mallaig. As the train pulls out of Fort William, look back and left to see Ben Nevis towering above the town. The train then crosses the Caledonian Canal – look out for Neptune’s Staircase, a succession of eight locks, to your right. The train then runs alongside Loch Eilt before reaching the spectacular, 21-arch, Glenfinnan Viaduct - famously featured in the Harry Potter movies. Other highlights include views of Arisaig and the white Atlantic sands of Morar. Mallaig is a delightful little working port. You may like to explore the Heritage Centre or visit the Smokery where you can arrange for kippers to be sent anywhere in the world. Day 5: Fly Home Today marks the end of your Scottish adventure. Head to the airport and catch your flight home.
