    The location was superb and I took many beutiful pictures of Loch Ness and painted several small watercolours during my stay. I was able to return the hospitality of a very dear school friend in style and comfort, which was perfect. We had dinner...

Neighbourhood information

For Activities Fort Augustus has a vast range of fun ways to keep you busy during your holiday. There are great places to eat & drink and the Loch Ness Cruise meeting point is just outside the Abbey. The new South Loch Ness trail and many other paths offer various walking routes and there is often live music in the pubs and bars. Fort Augustus has its own golf course and the Canal Locks have their own unique way of entertaining. There are places to buy ice cream and gift stores to buy your loved ones that special present from the Scottish Highlands. Walking, hiking and cycling are some of the activities Fort Augustus has to offer, so it is just as well there are paths and walks in abundance! The Loch Ness Exhibition Centre is halfway between Fort Augustus and Inverness. It is a fascinating insight to the legend of Loch Ness taking you from the beginning of Scotland’s history to present day. Cruise Loch Ness, just outside the Abbey, and Jacobite Cruises are a short drive along the A82. To explore Loch Ness fast and a little bit bumpy, the RIB is for the adventurous and thrill seekers. Or relax and take in the scenery on the more leisurely Royal Scot with bar for drinks.
