Local Attractions
There's plenty to see and do in and around North Kessock and Inverness – just leave yourself enough time. Browse city shops old and new, from the Victorian Market to the new award-winning shopping complex, Eastgate II. Take a stroll to Inverness Castle, currently used as a courthouse, and St Andrew's Cathedral, which dominate the River Ness and what has been described as one of the most beautiful riverside settings in Britain. Enjoy the fine circular walk from the castle along the river and through the Ness Islands where, in the peak season from July to October, you can watch anglers casting long lines to leaping Atlantic salmon. Buy a daily ticket and try it for yourself. Splash or Ice Skate at Inverness Leisure Centre or visit Bugh Park, a family friendly play park with boating lake. Above the city lies Craig Phadrig, once the stronghold of Pictish Kings, which offers interesting forest walks. From here you can enjoy magnificent views of the Moray Firth, home to a diverse range of wildlife including bottlenose dolphins which can be seen from the shore or on trips available from harbours along the coast.
