After our walk yesterday we had a free day in Fort Augustus. It’s very small and seems to exist mainly on tourism – it’s on the road from Oban to Inverness and a centre of tourism for Loch Ness as well as having on of the lock ‘staircases’ on the Caledonian Canal so folk travelling the lochs/Canal depending on their timing wind up staying here waiting to traverse the canal lock staircase.

So we’ve had a relaxing day tootling about, checking out the few shops and people watching, and relaxing at the hotel. The walking tomorrow looks a bit tougher than yesterday!
