Last look at Aviemore
Two old bikes on a bridge
Culloden memorial
Today we start with an 8 mile bike ride around Loch Morlich, just to loosen up the legs.Then its off to Culloden Battlefield site, where the NT has done a great job of the visitor centre, giving a full insight into the battle of Culloden, where nearly 2000 Jacobites were slaughtered, with just the loss of 50 government troops in barely one hour. After the exhitition we were given a hand held GPS which gave us a detailed history of the battle on the actual battleground. From here, we continued on into Inverness and down the south side of Loch Ness, with a stop off to see the Falls of Foyers. Then on to Fort Agustus, and our stop for the night at the Loch Ness caravan site, right on the shore of the loch. Haven't seen Nessie yet but here's hoping.
