🌿 Discover Glen Nevis and Meet our Fold of Highland Cattle

Come and explore one of Scotland’s most breath taking glens on foot! Our guided walk in Glen Nevis is a relaxed, off-the-beaten-track wander along the River Nevis, with plenty of stories and beautiful scenery!

Glen Nevis is steeped in history and natural beauty — framed by towering mountains, ancient woodland, and sparkling water. As we walk, you’ll hear tales of the glen’s past, spot some wildlife, and discover the film locations of Hollywood favourites like Braveheart, Highlander, and Harry Potter. Best of all, the proceeds from your booking go directly towards our ongoing nature restoration work in Glen Nevis.

🐮 Meet Our Highland Cattle 

At the end of our walk, we’ll visit our friendly Fold of Highland Cattle, including Emma and her adorable calf, Solas (born in September 2024). 

If you’re lucky, you might spot a few of our newest arrivals too — we’re expecting more calves from our handsome bull, Ted, throughout April and May!

📍 Meeting Point

The walk begins in the field on your left-hand side, around 150–200 metres beyond the cattle grid on Glen Nevis Road in Fort William.
