Transfer to Invermoriston and walk to Drumnadrochit (low route)
Hiking route
· United Kingdom
After a short transfer (15 min) to the village of Invermoriston on the banks of Loch Ness you’re presented with a choice of hikes—a high and low variation.
moderate
Distance 23.9 km
The low route, mapped here, hugs the shores of Loch Ness before ascending to give stunning views over the 13-16th century ruins of Urqhuart Castle that was once a stronghold of Robert the Bruce. Descend into Drumnadrochit village, the hub for all things Loch Ness.
Alternatively, the more challenging, but firm favorite among our guests, is the high route (also found in this trip list)—a little extra ascent and rugged terrain is rewarded by some of the best views of the glen!
Please see your personalised accommodation sheet for your morning transfer details.
