REASONS TO BOOK CRUISE ON LOCH KATRINE
Named after the poem written by Sir Walter Scott, Lady of the Lake will carry you past breathtaking scenery. She has a heated saloon in case of inclement British summer weather.

Your Fort William to Mallaig steam train round trip begins at the southern end of the Great Glen, in the shadow of Ben Nevis. Hopping aboard the Jacobite, you will puff past stunning scenery, craggy coastlines and inland lochs.
