Fort Williams was built to help control the Highlands by the government. The town eventually took the name of the fort. We spent just a short time here and wandered about. The Caledonian canal has several locks in Fort Williams. The canal connects several lochs together providing an inland water way, much like the Inter-Coastal water way on the east coast of the United States.
There are several pubs and restaurants; however, we chose the Canalside Chip Shop, for Fish-n-Chips and Irn-Bru, and ate next to the Canal.
Picturesque town.
