Ten miles along the "Road to the Isles" in the opposite direction, you will come to Glenfinnan, the place where Bonnie Prince Charlie raised his standard in 1745 at the start of the Jacobite rebellion. The National Trust Centre is well worth a visit, and if you are feeling energetic you can climb to the top of the Glenfinnan Monument, overlooking beautiful Loch Shiel. Further on from Glenfinnan, the road takes you through the villages of Lochailort and Arisaig to Morar, where there are some of the most beautiful beaches in the country, known locally as the "Silver Sands", before finally reaching the fishing village of Mallaig, from where you can take a ferry to the Isle of Skye and the smaller Isles.
