4-Day Great Glen Way Adventure
Journeying Total Distance – 73 Miles
Our Great Glen Way Adventure Journey begins in Fort William. We travel by bike from Neptune’s Staircase, the start of the Caledonian Canal
The next part of the Great Glen Way Adventure will be undertaken in traditional open Canadian canoes, from South Lagan up the Caledonian Canal and passing the monument of the Well Of The Seven Heads with its dark murderous past.
Straight on to the daunting site of Loch Ness stretching further than the eye can see. Don’t worry – you’ll soon reach land again as we’ll be traveling in sea kayak.
Our final day of the Great Glen Way Advtenture! And a day of diversity as we leave Drumnadrochit and its castle behind and travel to the small cosmopolitan city of Inverness (Capital of the Highlands).

Review of: White Water Rafting in Scotland
We went white water rafting on the River Garry with Jim from Active Outdoor Pursuits. He was really friendly and professional and we felt we were in good hands.

Plus - what a beautiful river!…

Fantastic day out for all the family. The instructors ( Freddie and Rory I think- sorry if this is wrong) were very friendly and enthusiastic, they understood the needs of our group, the ones who were a bit more adventurous and the ones who wanted to enjoy the scenery. The weather was gloriously hot, not ideal for white water rafting but this didn't take away from the overall experience. The company were attentive, quick to respond to emails, professional and we felt we were in very safe hands. As a group of 16 we booked various activities over 3 days and we were not disappointed. Would thoroughly recommend this company. Thank you.…

Review of: White Water Rafting in Scotland
We went whitewater rafting with this company. Very well organised, particularly in these difficult times. Excellent instructors. Only downside is that there was very little white water compared to previous rafting experiences. All in all - An enjoyable day.
