Fort William is one of the adventure capitals of Scotland. It has the mighty Ben Nevis to thank for this status – Britain's highest mountain rises to the southeast in an impressive display of mountain bulk. Every year, hundreds of thousands of people flock to the region to test their mettle against the Ben.

The town has many excellent places to eat and drink, as well as a huge range of accommodation choice. It also gives access to Glen Nevis, which is where many approaches to the Ben, as well as routes in the fantastic Mamores range, start.

Strictly speaking, this is where Craigs Burial Ground is located, a historic cemetery worth seeing.

Fort William marks the end of the West Highland Way for those walkers bold enough to attempt it. Whilst it used to finish just outside Fort William, it was decided that this would be a more fitting end for this epic 96-mile (154 km) walk.

If you still have energy to do some walking, checkout the West Highland Museum. It's only wee but the staff are friendly and passionate and the exhibits interesting!
