Gather your friends and family for a few fun filled days on the banks of Loch Ness. Surrounded by stunning scenery, there’s great walking and cycling from the doorstep, a short walk takes you to the iconic Urquhart Castle and Inverness is just a 20 min drive away. What a great way to celebrate a birthday, organise a post covid reunion or simply get together to enjoy each other’s company in this unique setting.

With 45 beds across 9 rooms and a lovely large self catering kitchen there will be space for everyone.  What’s more the Lodge’s wood burning stove and  well stocked bar will be just what you need after a day exploring this wonderful part of the country.

Loch Ness Backpackers Lodge is now open with reduced capacity and no shared dorms. We are sorry if this is a disappointment but our priority is keeping everyone safely distanced.

This 18th-century Highland farmhouse provides friendly accommodation walking distance of Loch Ness, Urquhart Castle, he Great Glen Way and with pubs, restaurants and supermarket close by.

A warm cosy hostel, geared up for walkers and mountain bikers just a 10 minutes walk from the start of the route. You can leave your luggage at the hotel until you return.

With a supermarket, pubs and restaurants within walking distance and optional breakfast and packed lunches from Loch Ness Backpacker Lodge, you don’t  have to worry about what you are going to eat.  There’s a shed to store you bikes in.  And to top it all the hostel has it’s own bar with 50+ Scottish beers.

The Affric Kintail Way is a fully signposted, superb cross-country route for walkers and mountain bikers stretching almost 44 miles from Drumnadrochit on Loch Ness to Morvich in Kintail by Loch Duich. Given the proximity to the Great Glen Way (Inverness – Fort William) it is quite possible to extend your route to/from Drumnadrochit to Inverness and enjoy a spectacular coast to coast trek.
