📌 Dores, Highland
★★
Dores is your first point of contact with Loch Ness when exploring it in a clockwise direction from Inverness. There’s not much to the village itself, although we can recommend the Dores Inn, with a beautiful outlook over the water especially at sunset. And indeed, it’s the views that bring visitors to Dores: it’s a perfect place to stand and gaze along the loch towards Fort Augustus and the hill of Meall Fuar-mhonaidh… at least for early birds, before crowds arrive. A key highlight for fans of the Loch Ness Monster is a camper van / kiosk on the beach belonging to Steve Feltham – a full time Nessie hunter.
