Abriachan Gardens
Abriachan Gardens is known as the "garden on Loch Ness" - and it's absolutely beautiful. A great stop-off point to enjoy the views if you're planning a long day's walk or hopping along the edge by scenic bus from Inverness.
It's easy to reach Abriachan Gardens in Scotland, by train. Simply hop on a train to Inverness station - then it's a bit far for a walk - it is a very rural location - but we can recommend the 17 bus service along the A82. You'll also find a taxi rank at Inverness station: it's a 21-minute trip.
