Cheap train tickets to Inverness

One of the most northerly cities in the UK (if not the most northerly), Inverness is found on the edge of the Moray Firth, and a few miles north-east of the famous Loch Ness. It can be a great base for exploring the area, perhaps even venturing further north on the Far North Line to Thurso & Wick or the Kyle of Lochalsh Line to the village of the same name on the western coast of the Highlands that also allows access to the island of Skye. It also has some historical importance, as to the east of the city lies Culloden Moor, where the famous Battle of Culloden took place in 1745 which subsequently ended the Jacobite Rising of that year. If you do decide to explore the Highlands in greater depth, then don't forget to use our website or app to purchase cheap train tickets.

Given its location in the Highlands, you may be forgiven for thinking that Inverness isn't the easiest of places to visit, but this isn't the case. There are trains to the city from Glasgow and Edinburgh, both of which have frequent services to many other destinations across the country. It also has a direct link to London with LNER as part of its 'Highland Cheftain' service, and is also linked to the capital through the Caledonian Sleeper's 'Highland Sleeper' service (the other portions going to Fort William via Glasgow Queen Street, and also Aberdeen). The sleeper train can be a really good option if you want to combine both rail travel and an overnight stay into one package. There's also a small airport to the north-east of the city, which has a direct train service into Inverness itself.

Getting around Inverness

There are a good few ways in which you can get around Inverness, and we've covered the main ones below.

  • Walk/cycle. Given the relatively compact size of the city centre, Inverness is a good city for walking around. This is great if you're on a bit of a budget or would like to get some exercise in on your break to the Scottish city. It's also well-located for exploring the surrounding areas of the Scottish Highlands. If you want ideas on walks to take in and around Inverness, then you can find a good number HERE. In terms of cycling, there are plenty of different routes around the area, which is ideal if you want to get out a bit further and explore more of the local area. Some of the routes can be found HERE and HERE.
  • Bus. There are a number of bus routes in and around Inverness, which can be great if you're wanting to cover a bit more ground. One of the main operators in Inverness is Stagecoach, and their website can be found HERE. The local council has some information HERE, and some additional timetables can be found HERE.
  • Taxi. If you have a fair amount of luggage, or perhaps have some mobility issues, then it can be worth utilising these to help you get around Inverness. Having said this, the costs can add up over time if you end up using a number of taxis, so it can be worth bearing this in mind.

Sport

For sports fans, perhaps the most obvious option in Inverness is football, with the biggest club being Inverness Caledonian Thistle. With their home being the Caledonian Stadium to the north of the city and next to the Kessock Bridge where the Beauly Firth flows into the Moray Firth, the club currently plays in the third tier of Scottish football (this being Scottish League One). In recent years, the club's biggest moment was winning the 2014-15 Scottish Cup, beating Falkirk 2-1 in the final. For further information on the club, their website can be found HERE. If you enjoy rugby union, then Highland RFC could be worth looking into. The amateur club plays its home games at Canal Park to the south of the city and on the western bank of the River Ness, and they currently participate in the Scottish National League Division One (the second tier of amateur rugby in Scotland). For something with a bit more of a local flavour, why not consider shinty? The game has its origins in the Irish game of hurling, and Inverness is the home of the sport's governing body (the Camanachd Association) - further information can be found on their website HERE. Other sports with a presence in the city include hockey and golf, with the course at the nearby Castle Stuart holding the Scottish Open in both 2011 and 2016.

History

As mentioned in the introduction, nearby Culloden Moor was the site of the famous Battle of Culloden in 1745 that finished the Jacobite Rising of that year. If you want to know more about the battle, then why not pay a visit? The visitor centre, run by the National Trust for Scotland, has a number of different exhibits to help you learn more about what happened all those years ago in what proved to be a pivotal event in the history of Scotland (and indeed the UK). If you want to learn more about the history of Inverness, then the Inverness Museum and Art Gallery on Castle Wynd to the south-west of the city centre is well worth considering. Originally founded in 1881, the museum has undergone a number of changes over the years (most recently in the 2000s for a substantial makeover), and has a number of exhibits including Scottish geology, Pictish stones, Inverness silver, and Highland weapons. Some other things to do in Inverness itself include visiting Inverness Castle, sat on a cliff overlooking the eastern bank of the River Ness. Castles have been built on this site since 1057, with the present structure dating from 1836. The castle is currently undergoing maintenance (including increasing accessibility to the site), being scheduled to reopen in 2025, and was featured on the Royal Bank of Scotland's £50 note until 2021. Interestingly, the castle was the site of the local sheriff court until 2020. Over on the western side of the River Ness, you'll find Inverness Cathedral. Part of the Scottish Episcopal Church (itself a part of the Anglican Communion), the building was completed in 1869, and is the seat of the Bishop of Moray, Ross and Caithness. Perhaps you could use the savings on cheap train tickets purchased from our app or website to go towards a visit to one of these historic attractions or maybe a souvenir to remind you of your trip to Scotland.

Culture

If you want to sample some local Scottish culture, then why not consider the Inverness Highland Games? These take place every year, and include traditional events such as the long jump, open piping, and - of course - tossing the caber. There's also a market area, a funfair, and an evening ceilidh, which helps to make it a great event for all ages. For the performing arts, the key place in the city is arguably Eden Court on Bishops Road, on the western side of the River Ness. The complex has a theatre and cinema, and there are a number of different touring productions that visit during the course of the year. Eden Court was first opened in 1976, and was substantially rebuilt back in 2006. The Inverness Museum and Art Gallery on Castle Wynd has a focus on local fine art and craft, which is worth considering. In terms of town twinning, Inverness is twinned with three - Augsburg in Germany, La Baule-Escoublac in France, and Saint-Valery-en-Caux in France. Some of the most well-known people to come from Inverness include Olympic silver medallist Laura Muir, politicians Yvette Cooper and Charles Kennedy, and actress Karen Gillan.

River House

If you're tempted to sample some while you're visiting Inverness, then why not go to Mangrove on Academy Street, just a short walk from the station? As is often the case with Indian restaurants, you can get their versions of popular classics, as well as dishes of their own creation. The available starters here include onion bhaji (mixed vegetables moulded in batter and deep-fried), chicken tikka (marinated with Indian spice and and cooked in a clay oven), aloo somosa (soft pastry filled with potato).

If you wish to engage in a bit of retail therapy while visiting Inverness, then fear not - there are many options here. There's the Eastgate Shopping Centre next to Inverness station (ideally-located for some last-minute purchases before your journey home with cheap train tickets purchased from our app or website), with a wide variety of shops and eating establishments to cater to all sorts of desires. For those who may want to purchase from independent stores, why not pay a visit to the Victorian Market? It has four entrances - one on each of Academy Street, Church Street, Union Street, and Queensgate - with the building dating back to 1990, and has over 30 varied independent businesses.

Given its location, Inverness is an ideal base for exploring the northern end of Loch Ness. If you'd like to take a day trip and explore the famous loch (and maybe spot Nessie!), then you can easily do so. Companies such as Rabbie's offer such an experience, with their tour including Fort Augustus, an optional boat cruise (weather-dependent), and the famed Urquhart Castle - originally built in the 13th century, this castle played a role in the Wars of Scottish Independence during the 14th century, was abandoned in the 17th century, and was partially destroyed in the 1690s to prevent the Jacobite forces from using it. It's now looked after by Historic Environment Scotland. In terms of longer-distance walking, Inverness is well-connected to a number of footpaths, including the Great Glen Way that connects to Fort William along the Great Glen, the John o'Groats Trail that connects to John o'Groats along the coast, and the South Loch Ness Trail that connects to Fort Augustus alongside the southeastern edge of Loch Ness. Inverness therefore seems like an ideal place to base yourself if you want to get some cheap train tickets from our app or website and explore the Highlands.
