The A86 road passes through the village and crosses the river on a nearby bridge. It is notable as being the region in Badenoch where the Scottish Gaelic language survived the longest. Laggan is located in Cairngorms National Park. It was used to represent the fictional village of Glenbogle during filming of the BBC TV drama series Monarch of the Glen. The ruins of the Pictish fort of Dùn dà Làmh lie near Laggan.
