The Area

The central location of Drumnadrochit makes it a fine starting point for touring the Highlands.  You can take a different route each day.  It is worth noting that if you come in winter you are equidistant between the cairngorm ski slopes and Nevis Range, so you can change skiing venues as conditions dictate.

All these timings are approximate, please give yourself extra travel time as traffic on the roads can slow you down.
