A small town in the Scottish Highlands, Fort William is a gateway to the great outdoors. Surrounded by mountains and forests, it’s a popular destination for hikers, climbers and skiers. The town itself is a charming mix of old and new, with a traditional high street of pubs and shops, and a modern leisure centre with an Olympic-sized pool. Fort William is also the starting point for the Jacobite steam train, which chugs its way up to the Glenfinnan Viaduct, made famous by the Harry Potter movies.
