About Inverness

Inverness is the main city of the Scottish Highlands, set on the River Ness with a red-sandstone castle, the Ness Islands park and a compact walkable centre. It functions chiefly as the gateway for Loch Ness cruises, Highland castles and whisky-distillery day trips rather than as a destination in itself.
