Inveraray Castle

Inveraray Castle has been the ancestral home of the Dukes of Argyll, chiefs of Clan Campbell, since the mid-18th century and was designed to project power and stability in the Highlands after the Jacobite era. Its distinctive Gothic-baronial architecture and pale stone towers sit prominently on the shores of Loch Fyne, creating one of Scotland’s most recognisable castle settings. Today it offers a natural pause at the end of the segment, with managed parking, formal gardens to explore and a café on site, making it an easy and rewarding stop before continuing the journey.
