Road to the Isles - The Journey from Fort William to Mallaig


Listen Later

Ready to hit the road? Let's travel down the road from Fort William to Mallaig in the first episode of this season of Wild for Scotland!

'Road to the Isles' is a story about the drive from Fort William on the northern shores of Loch Linnhe to Mallaig, a port town from where ferries leave for Skye, the Small Isles and the Outer Hebrides.

The Road to the Isles is not exactly a hidden gem - it leads from Scotland's tallest mountains to the sandy beaches of the west coast. But most people drive it way too fast on their way to the ferry. In this episode, we'll take it slowly and explore what's left and right of the road, the best places to stop and the stories they tell.

Only 42 miles- yet there is so much to do and see!

After the story, I share with you my top 5 tips to make your journey on the Road to the Isles extra special.

Are you ready? Great – let’s travel to Scotland!
