Inchree (Scottish Gaelic: Innis an Ruighe) is a small hamlet, situated at the northern end of the village of Onich. It is 7 miles south of the town of Fort William, in Inverness-shire, Scottish Highlands and is in the Scottish council area of Highland.[1] Inchree is located 200 metres off the A82 main road, and is also 500 metres south of the Corran Ferry terminal.

Glenrigh Forest, behind Inchree, has a large network of walking paths and trails, where panoramic views overlooking Loch Linnhe and the Morven Mountains can be enjoyed. The Inchree Waterfalls, which drop several hundred feet in a series of steps, can be reached within 10 minutes on foot from the car park.

The viewpoints on the waterfall path look in a south-west direction down Loch Linnhe, and offer excellent photographic opportunities for shooting the impressive sunsets that occur frequently.
