Our first stop of the day is Callander, gateway to the Highlands. We stop here for refreshments and to enjoy the small town before we journey into the highlands.
We will journey through the Trossachs National Park on our way to Glencoe.
We stop for photos at Glencoe and enjoy its atmospheric surroundings. The location is infamous for the Massacre of the Clan MacDonald. Learn all about its dark history and take some beautiful photos!
We stop in the town of Fort William for an early lunch break before we continue onwards.
Time permitting, we'll pause for photos at Neptune's Staircase. The staircase lock comprises of eight locks on the caledonian canal, and raises the canal by 19m (62ft). It was built in the early 1800s and is the longest staircase lock in Britain.
We spend plenty of time at Glenfinnan to see the monument and its Viaduct. We arrive just in time to see the Jacobite Steam train cross over the bridge; so don't forget to bring your camera for this iconic photo!
