Nevis Range in Fort William is home to the UK’s only Mountain Gondola, transporting visitors to 650m on the mountain of Aonach Mor. You'll find a range of activities for all ages, both on the mountain, and around the Gondola Base Station.
At the Gondola Base Station there are over 25 miles of trails through Leanachan Forest to explore on foot or bike. All walking routes are graded from easy to expert, from a short stroll to an extremely challenging walk, there’s something for everyone. Trail maps are available from the main ticket office.
We think you'll love The Blue Doon bike track which runs from our top gondola station! This track is one of the longest blue graded bike tracks in the UK and has opened up downhill biking at Nevis Range to a much broader audience here at Nevis Range. It perfectly complements the Top Chief and The World Cup Downhill Track also available from our top gondola station. We are delighted with the success of The Blue Doon so far and we are proud to offer this fantastic family activity in the great outdoors!
Nevis Range boasts a vast range of Mountain Bike trails varying from relaxing forest trails suitable for even the most inexperienced of riders to cross country and downhill trails. As we are home to the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup, you can ride the official world cup downhill track from the Gondola Top Station all the way to the finish area at the Base Station. There is also onsite bike hire and bike school for guiding and coaching on the downhill and cross country trails.
