The journey was quite long, and our driver limited our time at each attraction, but every spot was incredibly beautiful. He managed our time very well, allowing us to capture stunning views before dark. To see the iconic Glenfinnan Viaduct, you should make the most of your time and keep going uphill, or I recommend researching the Glenfinnan hiking trails beforehand.
