The West Coast of Scotland has some of the most spectacular scenery in Europe. Benderloch is on the shores of Loch Linnhe, a long arm of the Atlantic reaching up from Oban to Fort William and Ben Nevis. The area is one of unrivalled seascapes with islands, woodlands and mountains.

Behind Benderloch the forested lower slopes of Ben Lora provide woodland walks, while a climb to the top offers a magnificent view of the Firth of Lorne and the southern Hebrides.

The new cycle track from Oban to Fort William passes through the village.

Benderloch is on the main A828 Oban to Fort William road, just 8 miles north of the ferry port of Oban with its connections to the Outer and Inner Hebrides.

Oban has several large supermarkets, sea-food restaurants, cinema, a leisure centre with swimming pool and a tourist information centre. To the North the road follows the coast to Port Appin, Ballachulish and the dramatic mountains of Glencoe.
