Glasgow to Fort William, Scotland The West Highland Line is one of the most popular in the world – and it’s easy to see why. Not only does the journey take you up to Corrour, the highest station in Britain, but it also speeds across the 21-arch Glenfinnan Viaduct with views of vibrant green landscapes to the east and coastal waters to the west.
Beginning in the lively cultural city of Glasgow, with its breathtaking Rennie Mackintosh architecture, the train makes its way up the west coast.
