About Inverness
Inverness sits at the head of the Great Glen where lochs cut deep valleys and mountains brood purple. The castle overlooks the river; Loch Ness mystery lurks 20 minutes south. This is the Highland gateway—dramatic scenery in every direction, whisky distilleries, and Jacobite history.
