The Lochaber area forms a large coastal & rural part of the Scottish West Highlands and is home to Glencoe, The Great Glen, Glen Nevis, Mallaig, Ardnamurchan & The Small Isles. The region is packed with spectacular scenery from the deepest freshwater loch, white sandy beaches, towering sea cliffs, munros & mountains.
A rich history of Clans, Uprising’s & Clearances interlaced with the scenery makes this area very special indeed.
