Inverness Things To Do ??????

A_LANCASHIRE_LAD_2

I am coming up to Inverness on the 25th of this month ( Saturday ) to see my children , i know my way around pretty well having been a couple of times but i need to fill some time in with them between 11am and 4 pm any ideas on what sort of things the city holds for two children ? boy 12 girl 11 , i dont want to be trailing round the shopping centre/shops etc , is there any attractions worth going to in the city ?

Many thanks

Other than the obvious ten pin bowling and cinema, what about a boat trip on Loch Ness, horse riding, quad biking https://www.blackislequadbiking.co.uk or a day out at Landmark Forest Theme Park https://www.landmark-centre.co.uk at Carrbridge or the Cairngorm funicular railway.

You might find some useful info here too...

There is a bus that goes around the town etc, Inverness City Tours where you can hop on and off but may be a bit chilly yet.

There is the Floral Hall near to the Leisure Centre also.

Rollerbowl website...

Not sure whether anything on this link would be of use or not but may be worth a look...

BTW, Historic Scotland are offering free admission to their sites throughout Scotland on the weekend of 1/2 of April (Easter Weekend). May be worth having a look for when you get back to Fife etc.
