Moy Viaduct

Highlight • Historical Site

Description
1897. 5-span wooden trestle railway bridge; heavy timbers, each trestle with substantial buttress props either side; all bolted and braced with metal ties. Metal plated parapet with simple strut and wire guard rail.

Statement of Special Interest
Built by the Highland Railway. The only wooden trestle railway bridge on a mainline railway in Scotland. Built and retained owing to difficulty of securing foundations for a steel or masonry bridge.

Inverness City Centre

Highlight • River

Inverness is a wonderful Scottish city with a fascinating history. Meaning Mouth of the River Ness, the ancient cathedral city is a welcome metropolis in the sprawling Scottish Highlands.

From Nordic invasion to Jacobite battles and Royal killings, Inverness has played an important part in British history.

The city has a huge range of restaurants, accommodation and things to see and do.

Inverness Castle

Highlight • Castle

Inverness Castle overlooks the River Ness from a sandstone cliff and affords fine views over the ancient and picturesque city of Inverness. The castle’s position, bridging the mouth of the river as it enters the Moray Firth, has ensured its place at the centre of political, religious and mercantile life in the Highlands for the best part of two millennia. The site is free to explore during daylight hours. There is a viewpoint that you can pay more to see, though.

Too much road along the A9 and komoot even made us take it before arriving in Inverness. which is entirely avoidable and which we ended up doing. We did not check the route sufficiently
