This was a must stop on my trip, since I knew the history. To be able to stand where Bonnie Prince Charlie would have stood, awaiting the Clans to join his cause, was a dream come true for me! We arrived at dusk & the monument lights were just lighting up the statue. The romantic scenery & peacefulness was amazing.... More

Day trip to Mallaig and passed over the Glennfinnan Bridge and the Monument, how spectacular - the day was dry and warm and the sky clear the scenary is stunning and the views from the train stunning. Well worth a trip More

beautiful spot, interesting story, plus great views of the viaduct! More

The centre itself is a bit disappointing as there isn't a lot in it, but the actual monument itself is great. And I recommend looking round the back of the centre for the steps up to an amazing viewpoint to both the viaduct and the monument. Walking shoes are recommended as I only had my trainers and it was a... More

Loved how the personnel are so knowledgeable of the monument, they know their history and make you feel right at home More

Nowhere else in Scotland combines the landscape and history like Glenfinnan. The small visitor centre has lots of useful information and there are several walks including the Harry Potter viaduct and a woodland walk all accessble from the car park. One of the must see places in Scotland, especially if you catch sight of the steam train going over the... More
