Visitors to the Highland Food and Drink Trail enjoyed tasty treats and entertainment as it celebrated its first year.

The trail, in a dedicated street food zone next to the River Ness and Inverness Cathedral, aims to showcase the best of local produce.

Its spring launch, which took place at the weekend, saw at least five different food truck trucks each day offering a variety of menus from fish and chips and pizzas to cakes and smoothies.

Customers and passers also enjoyed live music from Christopher Guibarell and Dylan James Tierney.

He said although the weather was a bit cold over the weekend, customers still came out.

"The response from people was brilliant," he said.

"Everyone seemed to sell out."

Mr Hardie said customers included local people as well as visitors from further afield.

"There were lots of visitors," he said. "There were dog walkers, people in coaches, a lot of familiar faces.

"People came into Inverness to visit it. There were people coming from Nairn and Dornoch.

"There were a few things going on in Inverness including the farmers' market – so everyone benefits from that."

New seating has also been placed outside the cathedral. Called Eat & Peace, it is a joint venture between the cathedral and the street food zone.
