Itinerary description

Despite the rain it was a nice walk from the station (free parking if you are in time) to a good view point to see the Jacobite steam train arrive from Fort William. The trail starts at the dinner car, right the stairways down. It is about 20-30 minutes walk. Because of the rain it was not very busy. We waited until the other train from Mallaig (as we read somewhere) but there was not any.
Near the Jacobite monument we saw some deers!
