(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Commando Monument
On our way towards Fort William, we make a stop at the Commando Memorial, located near Spean Bridge in the Scottish Highlands, is a striking bronze monument dedicated to the elite British Commandos who trained in the area during World War II. Unveiled in 1952, the memorial stands against a backdrop of the Nevis Range, offering breath-taking views that add to its solemn and powerful presence. The statue depicts three commandos in full battle gear, gazing out over the rugged landscape, symbolizing their courage, sacrifice, and enduring legacy.
Glenfinnan Viaduct
The Glenfinnan Viaduct, one of Scotland’s most iconic railway bridges, gracefully spans 1,000 feet across the dramatic Highland landscape near Loch Shiel. Completed in 1901, this impressive 21-arch structure carries the West Highland Line, famously used by the Jacobite Steam Train, also known as the Hogwarts Express from the Harry Potter films. Beyond its cinematic fame, the viaduct holds historical significance, overlooking the site where Bonnie Prince Charlie raised his standard in 1745, marking the start of the Jacobite Rising. Surrounded by breathtaking mountains and lochs, the Glenfinnan Viaduct offers one of Scotland’s most scenic and magical views, drawing visitors eager to witness the nostalgic sight of a steam train crossing its grand arches.
Glenfinnan Monument
Just along from the Viaduct is the Glenfinnan Monument, standing tall at the head of Loch Shiel, is a poignant tribute to the Jacobite Rising of 1745. Erected in 1815, this 18-meter-high stone tower commemorates the moment when Bonnie Prince Charlie raised his standard, rallying the Highland clans in his bid to reclaim the British throne. At the top of the monument stands a lone Highland warrior, symbolizing the loyalty and sacrifice of the Jacobite supporters. Surrounded by stunning mountain scenery, the site offers a breathtaking view over Loch Shiel, a landscape steeped in history and legend.
