  • Peaceful holiday park with fantastic views of Ben Nevis and beyond
  • A five-minute drive from Fort William and the Ben Nevis Visitor Centre
  • Great Glen Way within a 25-minute walk; wifi available on site
The highlight of a trip to the Highlands and Islands? Feasting your eyes on the UK’s tallest mountain range – and that’s exactly what you can do the whole time you’re settling in at the scenic (and aptly named) Ben Nevis Holiday Park. This well-maintained site in Scotland, set by the River Lochy and with lots of green space for kids to play and grownups to wander, also looks out across the Aonach Mor mountains. It makes a brill base for day trips by car, bike, train or foot in the Lochaber area as it’s just over five minutes’ drive from the centre of Fort William. Cycling and walking paths are close to this park – including the famed Great Glen Way along the Caledonian Canal (25 minutes’ stroll) – and a selection of shops and restaurants is just down the road. If you’d prefer not to venture far from base to gather supplies, a store on site sells the basics, camping supplies and local produce, while a café and takeaway serve up a range of light bites and drinks. Other conveniences at this thoughtfully run park include electric hook-ups, a coin-operated laundry room, clean toilets and showers, and laundry amenities. Families and groups are warmly welcomed here for hiking hols (or restful trips).

What customers say

This well-kept spot boasts incredible Ben Nevis views, close to Fort William. Guests loved the clean, modern amenities (especially showers!) and the welcoming staff. Riverfront tent sites were a big hit. Tiny gripes: shower timer length and spotty Wi-Fi. Some campers noted noise during busy times. Highly recommended!

Laura M.

FHU cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked We’ve just come back from an amazing stay at Ben Nevis Holiday Park and honestly couldn’t fault a thing! From the moment we arrived, the views blew us away – you’re right on the banks of the River Lochy with Ben Nevis towering in the background, so every morning felt like waking up inside a postcard.

The park itself is spotless and clearly really well looked after. Paths, grass areas and facilities are all kept clean and tidy, and the shower and toilet blocks were clean and warm, the only down fall is there isn't enough of them. Our pitch was roomy with plenty of space for the car and awning, and we loved how quiet and relaxed the whole site felt even though it’s only a few minutes’ drive from Fort William.

Staff were friendly and helpful, and check-in was easy.

It’s a brilliant base for exploring the Highlands: Glenfinnan, Glencoe, Nevis Range Gondola and even the Jacobite steam train are within easy reach.
We’ll definitely be back, we have sooo much more to explore – it’s one of those places that makes you want to extend your trip as soon as you arrive. Five stars from us!

Disliked Could be doing with a few more toilets/showers for tourers and campers.

James D.

Powered grass tent campsite

Liked Well maintained park, good reception, cafe and shop for those essential bits if you need them and a variety of meals. Toilets/showers very clean and modern, park has good lighting for the most part on a night.

Disliked For the hookup camping, the amount of pitches and spacing wasn’t very good. A few tents were pitched very close to mine due to lack of space, no privacy. Shower timers are around 10 seconds which seems excessively short.

Local attractions

The owners reckon there’s something for everyone around this site, but walkers and cyclists are especially sorted when it comes to activities. If you’re up for a trek, challenge yourself to one of the trails up Ben Nevis, getting intel on which ones to tackle at the mountain range’s visitor centre, just over five minutes’ drive away. If you’re after a lazier lope, amble along the Caledonian Canal from the locks at Neptune's Staircase (25 minutes’ walk) or get your RDA of exercise by nipping in and out of the shops of Fort William (five minutes’ drive). The town has plenty of stores selling mountaineering kit if you need equipment to try out the more intense pursuits – think skiing and downhill biking – available in the area. For a family day out, make your way to the Glenfinnan Viaduct (25 minutes’ drive) and see if the kids recognise it from the Harry Potter films – the Hogwarts Express was filmed crossing this oh-so-scenic bridge. Saving perhaps the best activity till last, top off your trip by paying a visit to the whisky makers at the Ben Nevis Distillery (15 minutes’ walk) for a few drams of one of Scotland’s finest exports.
