Ness Island to Caledonian Canal
Ness Islands
When visiting the city of Inverness itself it is well worth visiting the Ness Islands. Here an array of quaint and magical islands interconnect via a series of victorian bridges. And whatever time of year you visit they always have something special to offer. Cocooned by mature trees you can wind your way around, exploring various bays and clearings. And if you fancy an evening stroll it is lit up at night adding some extra magic!
Caledonian Canal walks
Our Highland Lassie boat is berthed right on the Caledonian Canal so this is on your doorstep if you stay with us. Here you can wander the towpath and explore all it has to offer. An abundance of wildlife inhabits many of the various habitats along the way. As you wander along you can take in an array of gorgeous scenery including Loch Ness and the surrounding mountains. Being part of the Great Glen there are many spectacular views to behold. And from here you can explore the South Loch Ness Trail too.

Stunning Views
Meall Fuar Mhonaidh
This wonderfully named hill is not necessarily one you will know of but you will have seen it as it is in most photos of Loch Ness. Here you can walk up Meall Fuar Mhonaidh’s slopes following a well-marked path that leads you to the summit. It can be fairly steep in parts but it is well worth the exertion as the views from the top are spectacular.
Reelig Glen
Reelig Glen, a gorge formed by the flowing waters of the Moniack River, offers a wonderful walk through magnificent woodland. Important to note the ground can be uneven and it is advised to wear proper walking gear. Taking around an hour to complete this circular walk boasts some of Britain’s tallest trees.

This must be Inverness’ best kept secret, my wife and I each had three generous courses, the food, all locally sourced was cooked to perfection and was well presented. The menu although not extensive has something for all tastes and theres also a daily specials board. The venue is small and intimate, its comfortable and welcoming. The service was excellent. Well done I will definitely be back.
