The moody, romantic Scottish Highlands start at Loch Lomond just north of Glasgow. Comprising a slew of mountain ranges, this sparsely populated land is best seen by train on the West Highland Line. Mountains, lochs, bright heather and rhododendrons give way to white sand beaches and rugged coves as the train nears Mallaig. For a more active take on the region, hike the West Highland Way or visit the Trossachs National Park. Ben Nevis, a popular climbing spot, looms over the town of Fort William.

Beautiful location, great architecture, amazing history and the best guide you could ask for! Erik was fantastic: extremely knowledgeable, engaging, friendly and funny! He brought the place alive. Would highly recommend a visit and definitely check out the graveyard too.

This Church is located in Ballachulish , beside the A82 on the left , towards fortwilliam , with grave yard grounds ,seemingly it's the only church in Scotland that was built with the smallest slates , from Ballachulish quarry .it faces onto loch Leven . (It's my window view from lochside cottages onto st John's church & loch Leven ,one of the most beautiful views in Scotland .
