“Fought on April 16, 1746, the Battle of Culloden marked Britain’s final defeat of the Jacobite army led by Charles Edward Stuart, who was also known as Bonnie Prince Charlie.”

We spent a couple days in the Highlands in August. We stayed in Fort William, 70 miles SW of Culloden. It was there that the final siege of Fort William ended on April 3, 1746, just 13 days before Culloden. We hiked the Waters of Nevis (River Nevis or Glen Nevis), but this wasn’t the route taken by the army.
