The Fort William to Mallaig Railway Line
Regarded as one of the world’s most magnificent diesel railway journeys, this day trip will take you from Fort William to Mallaig and over the Glenfinnan Viaduct. The trip begins near Ben Nevis, Great Britain’s highest mountain, before heading west to Arisaig. The railway line then passes close by the deepest freshwater Loch in Britain, Loch Morar, and the shortest river in Britain, River Morar. Finally, the train passes alongside Loch Nevis, the deepest seawater Loch in Europe. - Please note the train journey may be in reverse order.
The Waverley
One of the most iconic and historic ships – Waverley is the last sea-going paddle steamer in the world. Magnificently restored to her former glory with towering funnels, timber decks, gleaming varnish and brass. You can see and hear the mighty steam engines as the Waverley glides through the sea, giving passengers a glimpse of by-gone times.
