GETTING HERE

The best way to get to the Games is by public transport - it's just a 10 minute walk from Station Square in the centre of Oban where trains, buses and ferries terminate (check times on Traveline Scotland). See our Games info page for full directions.

To arrive in true style, you are welcome to join a pipe band march from Station Square to the Games. The Competing Pipers March leaves the Square at 10:30am, the later march led by Oban High School Pipe Band leaves at 12 noon.
