Situated between the Marine Protection Area and Biosphere Reserve in Wester Ross, Inverewe is the gateway to wilderness in the Scottish North West Highlands.
There’s a network of paths throughout the garden for you to explore at your leisure. Two trails lead around the estate – the Pinewood Trail (a 45-minute, low-level, circular walk) and the Kernsary Path (an 8-mile circular walk through some of the most beautiful wild scenery in Scotland). Both offer fantastic views.
Take a wildlife boat trip from the Inverewe Garden jetty. Skipper Jamie has years of experience on the waters around Wester Ross and will give you an amazing insight into the marine environment. Inquisitive seals will keep an eye on you while eagles soar above. But what will be in Jamie’s creel when he hauls it onto the deck of the Striker? Boat trips run during the summer months.
Pre-booking is essential for our 1 and 2 hour cruises – please call our Welcome Team on 01445 712950 for more information and to book your space. Please also note that you will need to pay for admission* to the garden (*members of the National Trust for Scotland enjoy free garden admission).
