Inverfarigaig (Scottish Gaelic: Inbhir Farragaig) is a hamlet at the mouth of the River Farigaig, on the south-east shore of Loch Ness in Inverness-shire, Scottish Highlands and is in the Scottish council area of Highland.[1]
The hamlet is situated on the B852, part of the Military Road built by General George Wade, 12 miles (19 kilometres) northeast of Fort Augustus. The village of Foyers is located two miles (three kilometres) to the southwest and the village of Dores 8 miles (13 km) to the northeast. The villages of Bunloit and Balbeg are directly across Loch Ness, and the village of Drumnadrochit is close to them. The prominent peak of Meall Fuar-mhonaidh is also visible across the loch.
