Tagesausflug nach Edinburgh: Erkunden Sie Glenfinnan, Fort William und Glencoe

Depart from the vibrant streets of Edinburgh, passing by iconic landmarks such as Edinburgh Castle as you venture out of the city. Enjoy the scenic beauty as you travel northward into the rugged Scottish Highlands, with a refreshing stop in Callander, the gateway to the Highlands.

Continue your drive through the dramatic landscapes, arriving at Glencoe, which served as the backdrop for James Bond’s Skyfall and several scenes from Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. Pause here to capture photos and delve into the history of Glencoe, including the tragic massacre of the MacDonald clan in 1692.

From the evocative Glencoe, journey along the shores of Loch Linnhe to the Highland town of Fort William, nestled at the base of Britain’s tallest peak, Ben Nevis. Take a break here to stretch your legs and enjoy an early lunch.

Next, proceed to the enchanting Glenfinnan Viaduct, known as the Harry Potter series’s iconic route of the Hogwarts Express. Explore the site of the Triwizard Tournament and the picturesque loch seen from the grounds of Hogwarts.

Visit the Glenfinnan Monument, commemorating a pivotal event in Scottish history — the 1745 Jacobite uprising. Departing Glenfinnan, relax on your return journey to Edinburgh, with a delightful stop for refreshments in the charming village of Pitlochry.
