Abriachan
The first of today's destinations is the small village of Abriachan, situated in a hanging valley in the Highlands of Scotland. Lying in the hills above Loch Ness, the village has a small population of around 120 people. Visit Loch Laide (pronounced 'latch'), which is said to be home to a kelpie - a water spirit of Scottish legend.
Inverness
Finally, the trail brings you to Inverness, where the Great Glen Way ends. The city prides itself as the main cultural centre of the north of Scotland. Visit Inverness Castle, where the Way officially ends, and see a costume re-enactment of life as an 18th century soldier. If you come to Inverness in the summer months, don't miss the Highland Games.
