Harry Potter location tour in Scotland: Where to begin?

With your motorhome hire from Scottish Tourer, Scotland’s famous Harry Potter locations are just a drive away! 

After leaving Edinburgh, why not head across towards Lochaber? There’s some magnificent scenery and breathtaking views that can be seen in various scenes throughout the Harry Potter film franchise.

• The Victorian railway across the Glenfinnan Viaduct is without doubt the most iconic Harry Potter location in Scotland. The 21 arched viaduct is 380metres long and 31 metres high, and is sure to give you a spectacular view of Scotland’s countryside. Hop aboard the Jacobite Steam train (also known as the Hogwarts Express) and let it take you on an 84mile round trip from Ben Nevis. Be sure to stop in Glenfinnan itself and immerse yourself in its beauty and charm. 

• Next you can skim some stones like Hagrid on Loch Eilt at Eilean na Moine Lochaber. Lose yourself in the story with your Harry Potter motorhome hire. Those familiar with the story of Harry Potter will remember that this is Dumbledore’s final resting spot, where Volemort stole the Elder Wand and where Hagrid was found following the trial of Buckbeak. Take in the peace and tranquility of this beauty spot, all in the luxury of our 5* Harry Potter motorhome

• With Glen Nevis being an icon of Scotland itself, why not make this your next stop and at the same time visit the second highest waterfall in Britain. If it's adventure you're after, there are plenty of walking routes in this area depending on ability and weather.
