Fort Augustus

The pretty village of Fort Augustus is a favorite stop-off point for mariners and tourists alike. It's situated at the confluence of River Oich where it enters the middle section of the Canal which in total runs some 60 miles (100 kilometres) from Inverness to Fort William. On a busy day, the village becomes a hub of activity as onlookers watch in amazement as boats navigate the five canal locks lifting them onwards through the Great Glen.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through City Boat Tours over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
