Craig Phadrig
 

Craig Phadrig is a prominent hill overlooking Inverness, the Beauly Firth and the inner Moray Firth. There are the remains of an historical Pictish Fort on its summit. The open nature of the woodland which contains a variety of trees, the forest road and paths, and the ancient fort at the summit, along with magnificent views of the surrounding countryside, combine to make Craig Phadrig the ideal place for an enjoyable woodland walk right on the doorstep of Inverness.

How to get there:

Inverness is the nearest town or village.

There is a regular bus service which runs from Church Street in the middle of Inverness to the Scorguie and Balnafettack areas, which are adjacent to Craig Phadrig Wood. By car, this wood is only 5 - 10 minutes from Inverness city centre.
