CRTR is part of UHI North, West and Hebrides

End date: 31st July 2025

This will show:

• The routes for local walking and cycling trails

• Feature 360 degree images and films of the area

• Highlight places of interest or local stories

Get inspired:

Have a look at some interactive maps online like the ones from Scotland Off the Beaten Track https://sobt.co.uk/walks-map/

The trail will be placed on the free GeoTourist platform and will feature stories and voices provided by the local community.

Have a listen to some other local trails we have created with the community of Ardgour and the Ardnamurchan Lighthouse Trust.

‘A Walk in Ardgour’

‘Stories from Ardnamurchan Lighthouse’

Try this 360 visit to Fingal's Cave https://youtu.be/Gaw40LKmL8Y?list=PLy_BXH01fO2wvLbuDpBVSVwQtChbGsu3V

(you don't need VR googles to watch)

Or think about how Nether Lochaber could create some TikTok style videos like these from Visit Scotland https://www.tiktok.com/@visitscotland

• 2 minutes per story- which is just 230 – 300 words 

• We can help write or edit the script 

• We can record you, or you can do it on your computer or phone 

• We will do all the editing and uploading 

• We will need a photo and a location marker 

Some ideas for stories could be

• The historic Nether Lochaber Hotel 

• Memories of Inchree school 

• The origin of the name Bishops Bay 

• Wildlife on the loch 

• Discovery of the Ballachulish goddess 

What else? Tell us a story. 

If you want to be kept informed of upcoming events or to register your interest please email kendra.turnbull@uhi.ac.uk or the NLCA project officer Lucy@netherlochaber.org.uk

An audio tour or route could go past your business and you could be used by your clients.

The interactive map can be embedded in your website to showcase what to do in the area and the promotional material used to enhance marketing.

You could get involved with story or image creation.

Involvement in the project and its outputs is free.

Themes of the promotional material and images will be chosen by the community- so we want to know your ideas.

We want to showcase the area so need to know what information your customers need.

Or perhaps something else that would help you?

It can be about anything. Natural history, a memory from childhood, something connected to a local landmark.

Or maybe there is something you would like to know the story of.

It has been suggested that one of the audio tours should follow the route in the picture so we are looking for stories, or ideas, for along this route.

Get in touch if you have an idea or come along to our community story event on the 24th April.

Break your script down into sections- this way, if you make a mistake, or there is sudden background noise, then you just need to rerecord this section

Recording tip #2

Place your device in front of you on a flat surface- this reduces shake and standardises the distance between your mouth and the microphone.
