Glenfinnan & the Jacobite Steam Train

The viaduct, timed to the minute

OVERVIEW

Watch the Jacobite steam train cross the Glenfinnan Viaduct — planned around the timetable, on a Highlands day with a private driver.

The curve of the Glenfinnan Viaduct with a steam train crossing it is one of Scotland's great sights. We plan the day around the train's timetable so you are in the right place at the right minute, then continue through the Highlands — Urquhart Castle by boat on Loch Ness, and on towards Skye.

GOOD TO KNOW

Questions, Answered

Does the steam train run all year?

The Jacobite runs seasonally, broadly spring to autumn. We plan Highland days around its timetable.

Can we ride the train instead?

Yes, when seats are available — they sell out early in summer, so tell us at the start.
