Approximate location — this spot is pinned to the nearest village, so the exact point may be a little way off.
Right in the middle of Fort William, the West Highland Museum is a treasure box of Highland and Jacobite history. Its best-known piece is the ‘secret portrait’ of Bonnie Prince Charlie — a smear of paint that only resolves into his face when reflected in a polished cylinder. It’s a good hour indoors on a wet day, and the station’s just a few minutes’ walk away.
