HIGHLAND ROVER

Unlimited travel (with exceptions for Inverness and Aberdeen) for any 4 days in an 8 day period.

Highland Rover Ticket

It includes the whole of the West Highland line from Glasgow Queen Street/Glasgow Central to Oban, Fort William and Mallaig as well as all routes north of Inverness, east to Aberdeen and south to Aviemore.

description

The Highland Rover is separated into two parts. One part allows travel between Glasgow, Oban, Fort William and Mallaig over the West Highland line. The second part is between Inverness, Kyle of Lochalsh, Wick and Thurso on the Far North line and south of Inverness to Aberdeen and Aviemore.

You cannot travel by rail between the two parts (as there is no northern connection) but you can by coach as the rover is also valid on Scottish CityLink and West Coast Motors between Oban, Fort William and Inverness.

It can also be used on Caledonian-MacBrayne ferry services between Oban and Mull and between Mallaig and Skye and there may be a 20% discount on Northlink Ferries to Orkney & Shetland.

A 10% discount may be available on both the Strathspey Steam Railway and the Keith & Dufftown Railway.

The rover is also valid on Stagecoach Highland buses between Thurso and Scrabster and on Scottish Citylink / West Coast Motors services between Oban-Fort William-Inverness.
