The views across to Ben Nevis are best from this area. Just down the road is the small Highland Ferries foot-passenger only ferry to Fort William. It's an irregular service, with no Sundat sailings, but part of Sustrans Route 78 so it will make a special journey to collect 2 or more cyclists who wish to cross.
