This lovely route will provide many opportunities for impromptu diversions along dramatic little back roads.

Glen Docherty Viewpoint
  • 15m
We will stop at the top of Glen Docherty to admire the magnificent view north west over Slioch and along the length of Loch Maree
Victoria Falls
  • 45m
Wander through the trees and marvel at Victoria Falls From the car park there are wonderful views over Loch Maree, and you can follow the short path to the viewing area to see the falls. They’re named after Queen Victoria, who visited in 1877. The water tumbling down the falls comes from Beinn Eighe, the impressive bulk of mountain to the south of the loch. It’s a National Nature Reserve, and well worth exploring to see the ancient Caledonian Pinewood and mountain environment.
Red Point Beach
  • 1h
Travelling along the southside of Loch Gairloch we'll pass through a number of tiny settlements and villages such as Badachro, Opinan and South Erradale before enjoying a stroll on Red Point beach. The views to Rona and over The Minch to the north of The Isle of Skye are unsurpassed
Gairloch Museum

We can enjoy lunch here too in their great wee restaurant
Inverewe Garden
  • 2h
  • Admission ticket not included
Rare species thrive in this heritage garden as the effects of the Gulf Stream meet the Highlands. Discover the storey of a father and daughter who created a lochside garden amid a barren wilderness on the Atlantic coast in the North West Highlands. Explore the garden of experimentation and wonder at the calendar of colour and scents, cultivated with care ... and a hefty dose of creativity. Spot Scotland’s Big 5 in wildlife: red squirrel, red deer, otter, seal and golden eagle. You may even see a big 6th – the sea eagle! Look out for Inverewe’s huge California redwoods that tower into the sky – you can’t miss them!
Corrieshalloch Gorge
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket not included
Walk across the suspension bridge as the River Droma rushes through a mile-long slot gorge below. Cross the suspension bridge and marvel at the Falls of Measach plummeting into one of the most spectacular gorges in Britain. Follow the trails through the woodland for views of the surrounding area. Look out for different species of ferns growing in the microclimate of the gorge.
